There's a Master Class Sporting Clays shooter, by the name of Randy G. Roberts, who shoots a Parker(s) in national competition and he is certainly eligible for that title.

The 26 yard line is a far back as I made it. I have no doubt you'll get that extra yard. Great shooting John!

That is why I qualified my statement with “might”. Randy is up there too. So is the Doctor.

Trap shooting requires a very high level of focus and discipline!
Congrat's on the yardage gain!

Congratulations, John. By the way, your A grade upgrade looks better than my AA upgrade. Are you sure yours isn't a AA? Can't wait to hear about your progress to the back fence.

No bling. Just money. And not a lot of that.

Great shooting John, I've shot trap many years, made it to the 27 twice, (after taken ATA's reductions). I located a Parker SBT awhile back, tried to buy it but the widow was firm at 5,000, I passed on it, an SC, I think, didn't get a chance to examine it in person. I didn't want to press her too hard as she felt all her late husband's guns were very valuable. Anyway, I've only seen one Parker SBT at a trap shoot, owned by a shooter in the Spokane, WA area. Perhaps I'll locate one some time. I do have 2 GHs, and a VH I shoot and hunt with and use at 16yrd and wobble trap from time to time. Jim Turnbull
