RE: Chuck Adams
Every one seems pretty heated over this whole chuck adams thing. There are a lot of people that are saying hes the best bowhunter in the world. well it might seem this way to you because he is in so many publications. and im not saying that he isnt Necessarily but I am a very good friend of a man named Jim Ryan. in my experience he is every bit as good of a hunter as chuck is or will ever be -- he killed the north american 29 a couple of months after chuck hes killed i think 5 or six world records and i dont think anyone can count his pope and young entrys but the best part about him is that he doesnt care to be in the public eye. it doesnt matter wether or not he has killed 150 or 1000 pope and young entries. he hunts because he loves it Even though he has killed as many things as chuck adams maybe even more he doesnt go parading around bragging not that thats bad but it is very refreshing to see someone that is so sucsessful and good at bowhunting not go around saying i have killed 134 P&Y animals. he has got to be the nicest hunter i think i have ever met too. he makes time for every one he has given away probably 500 or 600 bows. he now helps his wife angie with her bow hunting and his grandson who is 6 with his hunting. he goes on many hunts and pays for a spot for himself but generaly doesnt even get to hunt because he is that involved with his wife and grandson having a great time while on their hunts. to me all the above makes him one of the most knowlagable, personable, and definatly one of the best bowhunters of all time
To me this is what a true hunter is. he doesnt go bragging or saying things to make himself seem like a better hunter he doesnt even care if hes the best bowhunter ever but he proves it through his knowlage and through being a just a great guy. to me that makes him (in my mind ) he best bowhunter of toay because i never met the greats such as fred bear, pope and young, i wont say the best ever
Hope this hits home with the TRUE bowhunters out there
