Destry, that is a fitting tribute to one of the greats! I have had the good fortune of knowing a few. I was taught long range varmint shooting by a national champion benchrest shooter, now gone. Irwin Rowe. I was mentored in pigeon shooting by a guy who did it for a living. I have years of upland hunting memories with a retired heart surgeon. Yes, I hunted with a guy I called Doc. (sounds like a fictional character out of a gun-writers imagination) And I know, hunt with, and am good friends with a real life Major Peabody type character. (love em, even if others don't) He taught me to head-shoot squirrels, btw.
I can really appreciate what Joe Bob Marks meant to you.
Gods speed to your friend.
