The Real Hy Gunn
A previous post to this Thread stated, "I came across this nice informative article by author Hy Gunn (which may have been the pen name of WHF) describing the origin of a shotgun game invented by two young men in Ballardvale, a village in Andover, MA."
In his book "Sportsman's Legacy" William G. Tapply wrote the following regarding his father H. (Horace) G. (Gardner) Tapply and his early work for National Sportsman and its sister magazine Hunting and Fishing: "Dad wrote dozens of stories during those years, mostly under pseudonyms such as H.T. Gardner, H.G. Traill, and Gardner Grant. Hy Gunn was the name he used for the 'scores and scores' of articles he wrote about skeet, the new sport that Bill Foster, his first boss, co-invented."
