As vastly different as Jack and Elmer were I grew up reading, respecting, (revering might be more descriptive), and enjoying both of their writings. I enjoyed the banter and think it did wonderful things for shooting, the gun companies, the sport, and of course not only financially enriched both of them.....but gave the rest of us the fuel for many a "great campfire argument"! What a wonderful time to be both a hunter, and a kid!

I thank them both.....for all they added to the enjoyment of my life!
