LOL! Ya that was back when I had a bit more hair (and yours probably had some color, oh wait white is a color )

I shot a straight grip GH I got from Scott Kittredge in the singles on the preliminary day of the 2007 Maine State. Using a Parker double in an ATA shoot brought a lot of stares and questions. I didn't win anything but broke a 95 and felt good about that as I had not shot registered in several years prior.

Pete, I went through high school with Billy Anzaldi and never knew he shot... maybe way back then he didn't shoot, who knows....

...Okay Dave, have at it

Dean, back in the 70's Remington had a team of five shooters shoot a bunch of thrown wooden blocks, 100,000 I think and they only missed some small number of them. It was to show the reliability of the Nylon 66 .22 rifle. I am pretty sure Bill Anzaldi was part of that five man team.

Pete and Dean,

Bill Anzaldi is currently the East Zone ATA vice president and Phil Wright is a past ATA president. Both along with Mike Blaisdell are excellent shooters and frequent Elysburg for the big east zone shoots. Pete, have you ever shot at Elysburg and are you planning on making the Northeast SxS shoot in June of this year?

Tom Frye shot wood with Nylon 66s also.

Billy graduated Reading HS in '65 I believe and I graduated in '66. If he shot that well in the 70's he must have been doing it in the sixties as well.

Chuck, I know both Phil and Mike pretty well and of course Phil has been involved with running ATA shooting in NH for a long time. I have not been to any ATA shoots in PA but know that they are BIG events. I went to Hidden Hollow in PA in '08 and '09 for the Northeast Sideby event. I had fun last year, '08 was pretty much a washout. I hope to go again this year.

Thanks for the replies gents! I was hoping maybe someone would recognize the Shooter in the pic. I was digging in my paperwork for an old 1939 catalog from V.L&A in Chicago that I remember had an add for the Morgan Adjustable pad but could not find it. the search continues. Paul

Paul, I've seen that trapshooter's face somewhere before but I just can't place it.
I'll let you know if it comes to me.
