(Joe Bowman with Kyle Donnan at the 2009 SHOT show in Orlando, Florida)
For the past 2 years, NYS 4-H Shooting Sports has had the honor and privilege of visiting with the legendary Joe Bowman at the Ruger booth at the SHOT show. Joe was an ardent supporter of youth and the shooting sports and a true gentleman. He will be greatly missed.
