I'm surprised there has been no comment on this forum. Bob was a pioneer in guiding literally hundreds of international hunters to the game animals of Australia, New Zealand, New Caledonia and New Guinea. I am proud to have counted myself among his friends and to have helped him publish his memoirs. He lived a rich life and will be missed by many.

R.I.P. Bob.
He was without doubt the single most significant pioneer of the international hunting industry in Australia and the South Pacific.
A true honourable gentleman .
And Bill, I very much enjoyed the book about his life that you helped put together .

Bill, there are some posts over on NE forum, including some from myself. I have always wondered if it was Bob through whom I arranged our hunt for NT buffalo back in '78. I have lost recall of who the outfitter was other then he did write in the Aussie gun mags which piqued my interest in a hunt.
The NE post got me searching and I did find who the actually hunter was that took us out for a week on the buffs. It seems that it was not Bob who I had arranged our hunt though.

I agree with your sentiments, Bob was a well respected pioneer and a loss to our community.

My sincerest condolences to family and friends of a South Pacific hunting Icon.

Sad to hear of Bobs passing, I worked for him many a season, then Matt who passed last year !

Condolences to Kay & family !

RIP Bob.
A Gentleman and legend.

Sad to hear it. His story on 'A Big country' made a big impression on me.

Havent seen any mention anywhere other than here . Guess I need to read his book , since there is an autographed copy in my library.
