Tom,
You nailed it with this post. My dad hunted with Fred many times and went to Grousehaven to hunt with Fred as well. I got to spend some time with Fred when they had the Pope & Young convention in Tulsa Oklahoma the year before Fred died. He came over to the house for dinner. It was great just listeneing to him talk about some of his trips. I also took some video that I have somewhere. I remember him telling people that he didn't want people to feel sorry for him because he had to carry that tank around. He said it was filled with his favorite peppermint Schnapps. He always took the time to talk to anybody. He was great for our sport.
