Title: Whos The Man In The Photo?
Post by: Izzy on March 14, 2011, 05:26:00 PM
I know but do you? Although he lived a short life by todays standards he sure as hell lived a good one. I plan on reliving some of his adventures minus shooting herons and ivory billed woodpeckers though Im sure it was fun back in the day.  (http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o244/2crazyboys_photos/Maurice_Thompson.jpg)

Man, Ive been reading The Witchery Of Archery and I gotta say its a hell of a good book. I read that he was an amateur artist and drew sketches of some of the things he saw but I cant find if they were ever published. Ill bet he would have liked it if the invasive critters would have established themselves back then, pigs, iguanas, chupacabras and such.

Absolutely, a fine book. He shot a lot of critters just to study them. Pretty cool.
