Well done Chris!
Using a L.C. Smith, "Sparrow" had the Long Run on Targets for 1899 with 211 straight May 8 at Peoria, Ill. and used a Smith at the 1899 GAH at Live Birds.
Using the
nom de plume of “Robin Hood” (as a rep for the Robin Hood Powder Co.) he used at Smith in April 1900 at the GAH at Live Birds, then broke 25 straight at the Grand American Handicap at Targets in June 1900 with his own Young Repeating Arms Co. pump.
When that effort failed, he was a demonstrator for Baker Gun & Forging (W.R. Crosby having left Baker for Hunter Arms in 1899), a trade representative for Peters, and in
1907 he was shooting a Parker.
In the 1908 GAH Preliminary Handicap, now using a Winchester 1897 he tied the winning Amateur Score, 95x100.
He won the 1926 GAH with an Ithaca SBT.
