I have to admit to being a Steve Timm fan, too. I covet that blue 223AI of his! I miss him here, too. He (Dogzapper) and Mule Deer have always been my favorite posters.

Hellgate: I also was a very early charter and life member (#185) of the Varmint Hunter Association and of course have the complete collection of Varmint Hunter magazines (including two Issue #1's) tucked safely away in my library/office.
I also have quite a few issues of the predecessor magazine to Varmint Hunter which was called "Varmint Hunters International" - I have gleaned an immense amount of information and valuable destination info from both magazines and was sad to see the demise of the Varmint Hunters Association and the end of the magazine. I only got to attend two of the annual jamborees/shoots/conventions - great fun and great times those.
I also looked forward every few months for the latest issue to arrive and enjoyed SO very much Steve Timms articles/writings and photographs.
I fondly remember taking some time away from the Portland, Oregon gunshow and taking both Steve Timm and Darrell Holland out to lunch!
What a pleasant visit that was.
At one time I was contemplating selling my complete collection of Varmint Hunter and Varmint Hunters International magazines - I am glad today that I did not.
From time to time I get out an issue and re-read many of the articles and enjoy the pictures and especially Steve Timms treatises - something, sadly, I can no longer say about today's latest crop of "outdoor writers"/magazines!
I say (to the original poster) save those magazines.

VarmintGuy Ehh VG hows about "Prairie Dog News" Ned Kalbfleish editor? Can't remember at work now. Those were the days...

I loved Steve Timms articles. Have a big pile of most of the issues at the cabin and always read some of them when I’m back there.
Also liked fur,fish and game and Marty meierotto’s articles.

Sscoyote: Yes I learned MANY a nifty place to chase Colony Varmints from the original "Varmint Hunters International" magazine - I believe they were edited/published by Michael Comstock and Sam Landis.
If I recall correctly there was a legal tiff of some civil kind that resulted in the "consolidation" of two quarrelers and Ned Kalbfleish became editor of the "Varmint Hunters Magazine"?
Winter of 1992 was a long time ago for me trying to recollect exactly went down back and just before then.
Met Ned a couple of times back in South Dakota at some Varmint Hunter Conventions great guy.
And used to trade guns and "stories" with Steve Timm way back when - his articles were FIRST RATE!
I still covet his Ramshorn handled Hunting knife!
Sad that the magazine went away.

VHA was a great magazine. I came across one of my patches in the reloading room a few weeks back. I joined somewhere around issue #16 and quickly bought as many back issues as I could. I never did find the first three issues and a handful of others I was on the lookout for. I wish I could have. Like others have mentioned, I too drifted off a couple years after Steve Timm left. I have done a lot of technical writing in the past, but Steve was, still is I would bet, a true artist when it comes to the printed word! I had always wanted to attend a varmint safari but I was in my early 30s then with a young family, just starting a career, and not a lot of money. As the saying goes, that’s life.
Steve, do you still write these days? All the best to you and yours and thanks!
