I marvel at your ability to handle your Parkers. Continued good shooting!

John
Hard for me to imagine shooting that well as I’m still trying for a 25.
But I’m thinking that all those trap shooters will be buying up all the Parker trap guns that come to market. Glad I was able to get one before the market goes crazy.
Great job!
Bob

One of these years I will make it out there to take it all in.
You and I both should’ve gone when it was at Vandalia .

The 25’s will start coming then you’ll want 50’s then 75’s then 100’s it’s a vicious cycle !

It would take some digging, but you may be the FIRST shooter ever to make it to the 27 yard line shooting a Parker exclusively! The 27 did not come into existence until the late 50’s or 60’s so most of the shooters by then were shooting other guns. It would be a good research project for sure. Some of the greats of the 40’s may have achieved the 27 but not likely many. Surely you must be the first in 60 years. Way to go!
