Sad sad sad. One of the most generous and genuine people I know.

RIP Chan. Enjoyed hunting with him at Snapp's place several years back. He drank wine all weekend long and had us rolling with smartass comments. To say he was a hell of a shot would be an understatement.

By some stroke of luck we managed briefly to visit over the phone with him a few weeks ago. We hunted several times together in Argentina, and he often had me laughing until I cried. One morning in Cordoba, they positioned us such that our respective shooting zones overlapped and he made sport of poaching as many of my incoming birds as possible - I managed to drop one dead in his lap, but he shot circles around me the entire morning! We enjoyed a couple great duck hunts in Uruguay also.

Years ago on another website, he was given moderation privledges and injected a single sentence into one of Benny's long-winded rants - some of y'all remember exactly what I'm talking about. It sent Benny through the roof and over the moon. I laugh everytime I think about it and am doing so even now as I type.

RIP Bankermane.

Don't know what you're referring to, but I sure would like to hear it. PM if necessary!!

It's better to have it and not need it, than need it and not have it.
