Most everybody called him Hoppy except Jack Wilson and Howard Knutson. They both called him Hap. I conversed with both of those guys many a time. The rifle in 264 Winchester Mag had a string that it had not missed on a game animal for 40 or 50 hunts. It supposedly was borrrowed by several of Harrowers hunters for hunts in Tajikstan and in the Wakan Corridor. A lot of guides dote on their rifles and others see them as simple tools. Jim Harrower felt that the rifle had some kind of spirit in it that was lucky.
