Larry's Short Stories

As a father and grandfather and having hunted and fished all my life, I am taking the time to write down some of my stories – for the enjoyment of my children, grandchildren, friends and Customers. These are all real stories that I participated in, nothing is made up; and I write them purely for your enjoyment. Larry Potterfield, Founder and CEO of MidwayUSA
