Long time trap shooter Peter "Pete" George has left us. He died Thursday, December 18th of a massive heart attack. He retired from being an agent for Erie Insurance a number of years ago and spent much of his time involved in trap shooting.
Pete started his ATA career back in 1961 and has over 200,000 total registered targets. Anyone who ever had the pleasure of shooting with Pete always came away with a smile on their face. Pete was always willing to help the new shooter just starting out.
If you ever saw a couple of Pete's guns, you would think where did this guy ever get that gun? Some of them looked like the junk yard would have refused them but then, when he took it to the line, the magic in that gun came out for all to see.
