Im sure he used to post on the other (green) forum but I cannot find anything there now.

Had his own forum : Hunter and the Hunted" a great guy with strong beliefs. RIP Sturg.

RIP Scribe

Had the privileged to meet him at one of our first Sika Show stays. I vaguely remember that 7 oz whiskey he poured me. RIP old fellow a job well done

I met Scribe on the Coro coast one time. Showed up with a fawn we were hand rearing. He was a count of knowledge, information and stories.

Tickled pink I was able to drop this old culler off some venison and woolly pork a couple of times.

Condolences to Julie and family.

In the happy hunting grounds now.

His book is a quality read.3 weeks ago we were looking over his old haunts in the distance.He must have loved jumping into a machine after the hard slog meat hunting on the back of Mangaohane.

Scribe - So sorry to hear you are gone.

Sue and I once dropped in a number of years ago on our way back from Kennedy Bay, and you were in the bath Haha trying to sweat out a bout of the bot you'd picked up. Yeah, we didn't stick around that day but made arrangements to catch up and I was always amazed at your depth of thought. Amazing writer and loved your yarns.

May you have the campfire and the whiskey ready for us someday at that great hunting spot upstairs when we arrive to take our place.

Oh goddamit, that's a shame.

RIP Scribe.

He was a good one for sure. Condolences to his family.

Rest in peace Graham.

Go in peace Scribe, thanks for all your ethics,effort and dedication. Will miss the yarns.

I was a year or two behind him, hunting in the Ruahines. His name was in every hut book and i enjoyed reading his entries

Who with? We knew Garry Sutton quite well.

Hunted on the same block with Garry Sutton when we shot for Henry Dorrian, based at Kawhatau. Then after a stint in the scrub, we would hit the booze in the big town of Mangaweka, sleep it off at the old condemned house down the road from the Police station good days never to be repeated.

You may have shot at the same time as a mate of mine: JC?? He left quite a bit of good poetry in the log books on that side of the hill.
