John Davis Does It Again!

[Mike Franzen]

John Davis, shooting his beloved Parker Bros SA Single Barrel Trap Gun has once again won the Georgia State Championship in Singles competition. The antique gun, nearly 100 years old, broke 199 out of 200 targets serving her master well. The PGCA congratulates your outstanding accomplishment.

[Reggie Bishop]

What a machine! Congratulations John! Way to represent!

[Garry L Gordon]

I’m in awe at John’s accomplishments. Congratulations to him…and thanks, Mike, for letting us know of his win.

[Chuck Bishop]

ATA Hall of Fame material!

[John Davis]

First, congratulations Team Parker. You guys are amazing.

The Parker SA really pulled her weight during this tournament. She started off in Thursday's Preliminary Singles event with a 99x100. Then in Friday's Singles Class Championship, she ran a 98x100. That was capped off today with the 199x200 in the State Singles Championship. She is an incredible gun. She ran the first 100 and then I dropped the third bird on the second post in the first box of the second 100 (that's a mouth full). But she managed to pull me through and run the remaining 92 birds. It was exhausting.

[David Noble]

Incredible! Great gun, great shooting! Congratulations again!

[Jim DiSpagno]

Congratulations John. Your dedication and proficiency will never cease to amaze me. Keep on keeping on.

[Mark Conrad]

Congrats John, you will probably be moved up to AA.

[CraigThompson]

Way to go John !!!!!

[Donald F. Mills]

Congratulations John!

[Bill Murphy]

John, try to stay out of AA. AA shooters don't seem to do too well, especially when you are there.

[John Davis]

I was on the bubble. Had a rough spot during the cold months.

[Bruce Hering]

Way to go John. Great shooter and great gun make for great things.

[John Davis]

Parker DHE, double triggers, straight stock: 94x100 in State Doubles Championship. Won Veteran Category. We were 2 birds off from a tie for Champion. Another great gun.

[Jim DiSpagno]

John, you give new meaning to the term”parkerizing”

[J. Scott Hanes]

CONGRATULATIONS, John!! Wonderful shooting! Get ready for the Champion of Champions event at the Grand! How about a photo of your trophy??

[Larry Welch]

Congratulations

[CraigThompson]

While Murphy says don’t go into AA I do not agree with that . It was always my intention to get as high as I could as quick as I could .

Way to go John! It's fun to hear about Parker's doing what they were built to do!

[J. Scott Hanes]

[Buddy Marson]

Never a doubt in my mind! Congrats John!!!

[Mike Franzen]

Looks like another Trophy Case is going to be needed! Way to GO, John!

He’s going to need a bigger house at the rate he’s going.

[Daryl Corona]

I knew you could do it John. :bowdown::bowdown:

[Randy G Roberts]

Congrats John. Certainly well deserved and the end result of a LOT of practice. Couldn't be happier for you !! :bowdown:

[Randy Davis]

Great Shooting John! You need to be at The Grand on Monday so you can take the "Parker" to a Win in the Vintage Shoot. No one has ever won the event with a SBT...
See you at The Grand...

I was on the bubble. Had a rough spot during the cold months.

A 199 in the State Singles championship, that's AA going forward for a long time on "known ability".

[John Davis]

I’m usually classified AA in Singles and A in Doubles. The gentleman doing the classifying was going strictly by what the computer showed to be my present average. I didn’t argue. I was more interested in category for the All American Points. Picked up a few of those as well.

Great Shooting John! You need to be at The Grand on Monday so you can take the "Parker" to a Win in the Vintage Shoot. No one has ever won the event with a SBT...

That would really be cool!

[Mike Koneski]

An A class shooter breaks 199/200 in the State Championship! In PA we call that a "sandbagger"!! :rotf::rotf:

[John Davis]

I wasn't going for Class. I was going for the WIN.
