Frankly, I can't remember ever reading anything by Jack O'Connor in my formative years in the early 1970s, though I probably did, being a devotee of Outdoor Life. I do remember Elmer Keith's columns and Articles in Guns & Ammo. Keith's writing and his opinions were interesting, entertaining, and memorable for their color, but Keith's experiences seemed exotic and irrelevant to the hunting and shooting I did (and still do) in the Midwest.
I much enjoyed the writing of Skeeter Skelton, and still do enjoy that of Ken Warner, whose laid back, tolerant and philosophical attitude toward his subjects I greatly admire.
