Just saw that Charles Alsheimer died. He was a long time contributor to D&DH magazine. He was well known for rut predictions and also his photography.

Seriously ?? That's so sad. That was my #1 reading material back in the 80's & 90's. I always enjoyed his photography.

That's a shame he wrote some good articles in the WTI flier.

This was on Deer and Deer Hunting's Facebook page.

It is with heavy hearts and deep sadness that we report the sudden passing of longtime D&DH Senior Field Editor Charles J. Alsheimer of Bath, N.Y. Charlie was not only our longest-tenured contributor (since 1979), he was a very dear friend to everyone on our staff. His insights on deer behavior and hunting helped educated countless thousands of whitetail fanatics. Rest in peace, sir.

He was truly a pioneer, and I don't say that as a nice gesture since he passed. QDMA has taken hold all across the country in one form or another. Passing 2-3 year old deer 20 years ago was nearly unheard of. Today, even novice hunters are looking for "shooters ". The mentality has changed deer hunting more than most anything I can think of. Charlie and Craig Daugherty put those ideas to practice and brought their results to the masses. He wasn't just the "moon guy". Sorry he's gone.

Man that sucks. Prayers to his family.

I too used to read his articles and also watch his segment on the D&DH tv show. Picked up a lot of tips from him over the years. Condolences to his family.

Sad. RIP

My prayers and thoughts for great man and whitetail expert may he rest in peace.

Very well said!
