Jim, Thank you for your note. You helped me into a Fox or two over the years in Vegas. Always a gentleman. John

Default Shootin Parkers

One of the best memories I have of shooting with you is when we were in a shoot off at the California State Side X Side championships for the 25 yard trap. You were shooting a 32" BHE beavertail Trap gun and I really wanted that gun.
Unfortunately, you weren't selling it just then. Later, I was surprised when you told me how it unnerved you when I yelled to my friend to bring me a bunch of shells because we were going to be there a while. Of course, I wasn't trying to do that, I just knew you were a good shot, and we might have to shoot a bunch of targets to see who won. Those were great days Jim. Take care and good shooting to you. Larry
