Good Luck John !! On a side note it has been my experience that "Bling" is hard to come by anywhere :rotf:

Merle Stockdale was placed at 27 yards in February 1955. The first 5 to reach the new 27 yd max were; Merle Stockdale (IA), Arnold Riegger (WA), Dan Orlich (NV), Maynard Henry (CA) and Evelyn Primm (CA), all making it to the 27 by April 16, 1955.

But 27 yard scores did not appear in the Average Book until 1956.

Nice documentation of guns used by GAH winners, but not their yardage

I believe the last Parker was Walter Tulbert who won in 1941

I figured Dr. Hause would have the answer.

I'm just a librarian John.
Well done brother.
