I like his wit myself. Dave Petal has one major problem today and that is he grew old.
The young Bucks want someone they can relate to, someone interested in the current black rifle craze, who thinks Bergers and shooting at 600 yard plus is where it is at.

battue - ? maybe Mr.P is more in touch (hip,in the groove, with it, savvy) than we might think?
Guys- I PROMISE I'm not pushing my idea per variables.
I've always liked Petzal. I never thought he was shilling for an advertiser. His sarcasm is enjoyable as well. I consider our JB a polite version of Petzal.
I don't mind his writing, but cannot stand his condescending tone of voice
The government plans these shootings by targeting kids from kindergarten that the government thinks they can control with drugs until the appropriate time--DerbyDude
Whatever. Tell the oompa loompa's hey for me. [/quote]. LtPPowell
Any writing that provokes thought or self examination is good. Balance his writing with other articles/columns people refer to as 'shilling for manufacturers'...or 'playing it safe'.
Weren't those new Mag-Tronic bullets wonderful? The whole shoot was wonderful. Wonderfully wonderful. I'm so glad I had the opportunity to try them!
Never met Petzal. Find his writings pleasantly humorous. Don't think his credibility to be tarnished if I find some stuff I don't agree with.
I worked a trade show one weekend, swamped. Saw a couple of hunting pros being asked the same questions for 3 days, proly a few repeats per hr.........every hr, every day.
Hell, it got old just listening to the guys asking the same old boring general info type of crap.
One pro was a jerk, but when somebody came around went into "salesman mode".
The other, was a gentleman when nobody was around, a genuinely nice guy who understood how people differ.
I have the utmost respect for the dude. A class act.
