A Unique Double With a Parker

[Mike Murphy]

The mention of the first William Harnden Foster Skeet Field, off of Dascomb Road in Andover Massachusetts, reminded me that I drove by that spot on that road, going to work for about three years early in my career!

...and never even suspected, right?

Dean, No I knew exactly what it represented. I was an active Skeet shooter at the time. i always wanted to stop the car and check out the property, but never did!

[Dean Romig]

Mike, where did you shoot Skeet... Minuteman?

I shot Skeet regularly at Danvers.

Very odd that you knew where Skeet was developed. Even the folks at NSSA never heard of the address or, or Glen Rock Kennels, or even Charles Davies.
Where and when did you learn of the address?... just curious.

Does anyone know what the interior angle of the crotched elm post used to mount the trap on the original skeet field was, or how much had to be trimmed off each limb to level the trap? - Very important in setting up a proper field for competition!

and where will you find an elm these days
