Barry Crump
I think our local Kiwi has improved a great deal. Was already a damn good bloke.

Joined F & G.

Bought a Model 10 and a BRNO.

Bought me a bottle of tax free Wild Turkey from your land. (1 litre!!)

And a book by an ex deer hunter called Barry Crump.

A very good tale.

Is the old bloke still alive, I wonder?

Nope. Barry Crump passed on a couple of years back.

Gidday Guys,

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but Crumpy died a few years back. He certainly was a bit of a character and quite a prolific writer. His other books include "There and Back" "Bastards I've met" and my favorite "Hang on a minute mate". There are about a dozen others all in Barrys inimitable style.

No one could spin the bullshit quite like Crumpy.

Happy Hunting
