He announced at last years SCI convention that he would not be guiding folks personally anymore. He is going to continue hunting but not with clients unless it is a special event/cause/charity. I have visited with him over the years and definitely a class act.

Always wanted to do the Yukon Moose hunt with his outfit... My wife actually contacted them about booking a hunt for me a few years back and they were all set up and ready to get me fixed up, but she asked me a few leading questions and I figured out what she was doing and stopped her... didn't want to spend the money, but now I wish I'd let her continue... I was going to be hunting with Griz Montoya... and was a good chance Shockey would have been in camp... Oh well...
I met him once in the airport in Detroit... He was waiting on a flight, and you'd have thought he was just a regular old passenger waiting just like everyone else... He was friendly and talkative to everyone who stopped to talk to him/shake his hand... Class act and genuinely nice guy.

I'm still ****** at Rogan for endorsing Bernie Sanders though.

Since Rogan (due to his podcasts with Rinella & Hanes) is basically the main reason why I decided to take up hunting at the age of 39 he gets a pass with me on stuff like that. I'll forever be grateful that he helped introduce me to the greatness of hunting.
