MATT CURRY

The Big Woods Hare Hunters of the Allegheny take pride in announcing the use of Big Woods Hare Hunter photography on the cover of THE RABBIT HUNTER magazine to honor the memory of legendary author, hare hunter and outdoorsman Matt Curry.

The article and pictures are reprinted here for your reading enjoyment.


Matt's entire obituary, the Big Woods Hare Hunter story and more pictures can be found on an older post on this blog. Please comment as you desire.

Matt, 2002. May a picture be worth a thousand words.

It is with heavy heart the members of the Big Woods Hare Hunters of the Allegheny mourn the passing of a true friend of the illusive snowshoe hare, Matt Curry.

Matt was a true friend of many, an inspiration to this writer and a fellow lover of the great outdoors.  His writings will be forever missed but it is our hope his stories will live on eternally.

It was one of the greatest honors of this writer’s life to have met, corresponded with and been considered a friend of Matts.

To his family, extended family, many friends and all those who enjoyed his stories and artwork, we extend our heartfelt condolences for your loss.
