    Old timers really are fascinating people.
    I agree. Sad to see so few of his generation left. Probably the best generation of men and women this nation has seen.

    Watching that and thinking back about this past weekend at Park Mammoth really throws some interesting perspective on this whole discipline, long range shooting, and how it has evolved.
