That is a good question. I have a bunch of his books and while Parker is mentioned, no grade is mentioned. I know his students at Mercersburg Academy got one for him.

One of these years before I leave this place I wanna get down in Rutledges area and plow a whitetail with a Parker . Preferably shooting it in front of a man/dog drive . But I can also make do shooting one with a Parker from a treestand if push comes to shove .I do not care if the deer is a doe , button , spike or the Great War Horse Buck of South Carolina .

In what I think is Rutledge's classic photo of him sitting on a bench with a whitetail rack beside him , a shotgun across his lap , LL BEan Maine Hunting Shoes on and one of his hounds by his side you cannot see enough of the gun to ascertain the manufacturer .



Still love that picture !
