Aaaah Crap - Tom Knapp has passed

[Pete McMiller]

He had just retired too.

I saw him shoot a time or two and loved his showmanship. Just seemed like a nice guy.

RIP

Met Tom at the shot show and saw him shoot also. A real gentleman and was a big boost to our sport. RIP

 

[Tom Scholberg]

He will be missed, saw him shoot a couple times. What a lucky guy and talented too.

Sorry to hear that ,didn't ever watch him shoot in person.Watched his shows when possible, enjoyed every minute and wished I could handle the shotgun half as good as him.

I (and several friends) was lucky enough to have a chance meeting with him at his hotel one time after his shootng show. We ended up in the bar to eat dinner and he was there. He saw the (obvious) hunter guys and invited us for a drink after dinner. Spent several hours BS'n with him. What fun and a nice guy. He'll be missed.

I agree with you, Pete. Never saw him in person but sure watched enough footage of him killing clay pigeons/pheasants/etc.
The really bad thing about it all is that he just retired and never got a chance to do the things on his bucket list. Too bad.
I just looked him up on Google and noticed that he was only 62 years old.
