A lot of people make fun of Wolters because he was pretty eccentric, probably was a better writer than dog trainer, John
Wolters showed up at the MT State trial in Butte in 1965, had a couple of very nice young dogs. Tar, a little over 2 ran test dog for the Derby. He turned a lot of people off with his comments about FT's, then the only game in town. Neither dog's handling capablilities were shown to the audience ;).

He drove a Ford with really huge tires on the back end to accommodate his camper, that's what I remember most about him.

No probably about it.
1973 NFC Baird's Centerville Sam was trained by Wolter's books up until he was sold to the Wallace's. Rumor has it that it took Sorenson about a year to undo those training techniques, but they still apparently worked up until the dog was sold & ingrained something for the future :).
