As a teenager I enjoyed reading articles by both. I certainly didn't have enough knowledge then to know which to believe.

After many decades of hunting but not coming anywhere even close to the number of animals they shot, I've seen examples that could "prove" either man was "right" in their approach to hunting guns.

They were who they were, knew what they believed, and it doesn't really matter what WE think of their opinions 'cause what we say about their writings of years ago isn't gonna change their minds, is it?

We were lucky to have their stories to read and their points of view are STILL being argued and I imagine will be for as many years as we can continue to hunt.
