I live in Ballardvale and have followed everything I could find concerning factual information about the origin of Skeet and it’s early years.

I had also read about “Hy Gun” among the things I’ve found.
Back in 2009 I believe, I visited to the former Davies property at 73 Dascomb Road where the original Skeet field was located.
