    Mr. Bill Hunter of Ca. passed this morning. Bill would have been 97 next month. He is one of the greatest supporters of Trap Shooting ever. My condolences to his family. J.R. Long

    RIP. The first thing I ever won in a Trap shoot was 4 boxes of AA's for a second place handicap finish at the Miramar Gun Club in San Diego (closed) donated by Bill Hunter. He use to donate cases of shells to second and third place finishers all over Southern California, for many years. A really great supporter of Trap Shooting.....So long Bill, and thank you.

    Bill would call me about once every couple of months just to visit and see how we were doing in Ohio. He bought a lot of cards off of Ann to write to people on. I'll miss those phone calls.
