As an avid outdoorsman and a long time reader of American Rifleman magazine, I was excited to read the news that one of my favorite outdoor writers received this prestigious award. Aaron Carter's articles have been the most accurate, in-depth, informative that I have ever had the pleasure reading. Congratulations Aaron, I look forward to reading more of your articles in the near future.
