Quite a showman, quite an ambassodor of the shooting sports. Heard about this last night through a family member on fb but didn't want to say anything until it was officially announced.

Go to google, search: "tom knapp passed away", second link down and this is what I got:

According to a message posted on their Facebook page, CZ-USA has announced that legendary shooting star Tomm Knapp has passed away.

The shooting world lost a great man today. Shooting Star Tom Knapp passed away this afternoon. Tom reinvented exhibition shooting almost 30 years after the passing of Herb Parsons. Tom was an inspiration to generations of shooters and he will be missed.

Our thoughts are with Tom’s family and friends.

He will be missed, always a great time around him. We had always had a fish fry/shooting weekend planned and just never made the time... He told me when Bob Allen was killed a guy needs to make time for doing things with friends.... Saddened we will never get the time now to share that weekend we both put off many times over the past few years....He was a great down to earth guy, I'm fortunate to have been able to share many good memories with him.....

It is a sad day indeed. My family is great friends with Tom,my mother went to school with him in Milaca and my father shot trap leagues and tournaments with him for years.

He had just retired and was looking forward to retirement on a piece of land he had bought on leech lake.

I didn’t know him personally but had the opportunity to see him shoot on several occasions. He always amazed me with not only his shooting but his ability to entertain. My thoughts and prayers to his family and friends. There will never be another, RIP Tom.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
