Lord Ripon (as Earl De Grey) was somewhat on the heavy side. I would post this picture of him with two gun handlers (all hammer doubles)"Born 1852 and became the second Marquis of Ripon in 1909. He is arguably the greatest game shot of all time with a recorded lifetime's total of 556,813 head of game. Much of his shooting was conducted with a set of three guns and with great speed of loading is known to have had seven dead birds in the air at one time. He died on September 22nd 1923 in the field, having killed 51 grouse on his last drive, while the last birds of the day were being picked up, he fell down dead."
Best regards, George
