The guy third from the right is Fred Missildine, the pro at the Sea Island Gun Club. I could probably figure out a couple more, but not off the top of my head. The lady to Fred's left may be Evelyn Primm. I am fairly sure it is she because she is sporting a Sports Afield All-American patch. They are great pictures.

Sorry, I don't recognize any of those folks, who seem to be local members of the club.

What I was amazed about was all the silver Trophy's and the number of Women Trap shooters in 1955, around Albany and the State of Ga. Flint Skeet and trap in Albany moved from the original site in 1964.
The now location is a paid for site with a club house, 4 trap ranges , a 5 stand with 8 machines, 5 skeet fields, and approximately 80 acres and now less than 60 members. If the membership gets down to nothing the area is to be sold and the money donated to charity around Albany, Ga. But who is going to want it with all the lead. |

The lady, 3rd from the left in the first picture looks to be holding an Ithaca not a Parker.
What do others think? |

The lead can be reclaimed and the revenue generated by a reclamation is substantial. It is also a proven fact that where there is little or no "acid rain" fallout there is no lead leeching at all... in fact, here in the Northeast where there is a lot more acid rain there is still no measurable lead leeching in the groundwater beneath shooting fields.
