Ernie has been a "sparkplug" for our sport for many years; his determination to share his knowledge and experience through his writings and communications is truly inspiring! His tireless work within our sport benefits each of us in some fashion. Ernie loves technology, and living in the West, has always sought solutions to "connect with small targets at extreme distance"...and apparently he has found at least many answers to that puzzle. He champions advancements in the equipment we use; one look at our photo pages, and you will see a progression in hardware sophistication that we would not have considered possible 20 years ago! Unselfish and extroverted, Ernie would rather tell you about what is new in the Handgunning industry, even while missing his turn to shoot. His past contributions to the sport have been many; I anticipate his future to be even brighter............. Ernie is still building momentum!
