Every one should take note of the young (15) man in the front second from the left. Forgive me if I get this wrong but I believe his name is Edward Blake. Last year he shot a 19 and missed making the Parker team by one bird. He has obviously been practicing because this year he broke 26 of 30 birds for the second highest qualifying score and shot a total of 48 birds which was only 4 birds behind our high overall total. He showed amazing cool shooting his 30" tight choked gun and crushing targets that challenged even the best shooters on both teams. Watching this young man compete was the highlight of the show for me.

Thumbs up

Please also not the oldest shooter on the team(I think?) was Tom Carter at 75. Tom qualified with a 24 and went on to win the coveted Oscer Gaddy award for the high score with a Damascas gun.

Not that his scores would have been any less impressive if he had been 15, but I believe that Edward Blake is 13 years old! Man, I hope I shoot that well when I grow up!
