Not a lot of Parker highlights here but we still managed to bring home a little bling.

In Event 1 of the Va Shoot, the Parker SAA went 97x100 to take the Class AA Singles title and in the Singles Class Championship the SAA won Open Veteran Champion with a 99x100.

In Event 3 of the West Virginia Shoot, the Parker GHE won Open Doubles Veteran Champion with 93x100. The SAA tied in Event 4, Open Singles Veteran Champion, with a 99x100 but lost the carryover. Then the SAA tied once more with another 99x100 for the Non-Resident Veteran Class Singles Champion and this time won the carryover.

Next stop, the Grand American, Sparta, Illinois.

Come on John, we'd all be happy with that kind of shooting. Hold your head high. I'm sure you'll live up to your high standards at the Grand! And good luck!
