My most sincere condolences to Mrs Jenny and family. I had many great nights at the Oreti small bore rifle club and also many great times at different shoots around the Southern circuit with Sam. One of the most sincere and competitive sportsman I have had the pleasure of shooting with and competing against, a wonderful coach and mentor. Rest easy big guy. Wayne Harper Winton
