My pop was stationed down there for awhile at Savanah in the 50's . Seems they had an AFB there back then .

I shot skeet a few times with an older gentleman from Macon Georgia . He was a first team All American at one point and when I was shooting I think he made the senior and veteran teams fellows name was TJ Maddox . I suspect he may no longer be with us as he was late 60's I think 25 years ago when I shot with him .
Macon has a amazing basspro shop ! There is a base close to savannah I have a friend who lives on it . Don't remember the name

You ever go to Albany much ?

If I'm not mistaken thats where the guys that have McWhorter Custom Rifles are located . McWhorter is the one who furnishes all the rifles for the TV show "Brush Country Monsters" . McWhorter uses mostly custom clones of Remington 700 actions (Stiller Borton etc) .

I believe the name remains Hunter. It was first Hunter Air Force Base when my father was stationed there. He was a C-124A pilot. When the USAF left it the US Army took it over to support nearby Camp/Fort Stewart GA and renamed it Hunter Army Airfield.
