The Original California Flyer Shooter Has Died
Bob Sanchez passed away today at the age of 84. He was one of the original Flyer shooters in California, and as far as I know he had the first ring. I shot my first Flyer with Bob, and I hunted many times with him in Mexico for Quail and Dove. In addition he was considered to be one of the best dog handlers around. You would never know who would show up at Bob's on any given weekend. He had a client list of many celeb's, as well as sports figures. And I can tell you first hand he always got in their pocket. Either by a side bet at the ring, or selling them a high grade gun, or dog. He was great at seperating you from your money, however you always had a good time while he was doing it. Bob however will be best remembered for Flyer shooting, you cannot talk about Flyers without his name being brought up. Wether you liked him or not, you have to take your hat off to him, he was the original.
