Thanks for the heads up Marc and this is a sad day for archery :'(
My thoughts and prayers are with his family.

I hate to hear that. Dr. Grayson was one of those one-of-a-kind people who cannot be replaced. He has done much for the sport of archery and will be much missed.

 That is a shame, there was still so much untapped knowledge there.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Sorry to hear that from what I understand he was a real icon and will be sorely missed.
My condolences to his family.

Very sad indeed. He was prominant in the archery world for so long, such an important figure, that archery itself has felt the loss.
