I met him at the first outdoor games in Lake Placid NY. he was very nice and was very nice to my children. they had him there just to talk to people and indroduce them to the shooting sports.
When there's lead in the air, there's hope!!!!

Terrible news. Met him when I was a Boy Scout. We helped every year at a local range's sportsmans show and he always had the scouts act as his "launchers" of vegetables and eggs to shoot during his exhibition.

Great guy, saw his shooting exhibition at our fish & game club and when everything was over he sat around and talked to whoever was left over. Great trick shooter.
