The Buck Stops Here

Hunters See the World Differently

The phrase “the buck stops here” was coined by President Harry Truman, and the “buck” in question refers to a marker passed from one person to the next in a poker game, indicating who would deal. But if you’re as avid a hunter as author Steve Chapman, this may surprise you, because when you hear “buck,” you’re not thinking about poker. Instead, you’re picturing white-tailed deer.
