When I was a kid I read every piece of bow hunting material I could find. Toad Smith was one of the great ones IMO. He died of heart disease, but not before putting up a heck of a fight. He had a surgery in which a piece of his heart was taken out. He asked the Dr. to save it - he used it to catch a 5 lb channel cat! He gained notoriety for being an exceptional bow hunter, couldn't write worth a crap, but was so knowledgeable that M.R. James would go to the trouble of editing, and re-editing the hand-written material he submitted. Today's "hunting world" is full of self-proclaimed experts. To me, this man was the real deal.
