Ss 5 1977

[CYanchycki]

Wow I am going thru old Bench Rest Shooters Canada magazines that I was fortunate to get my hands on. It just blows my mind to see the rewults from the early years of the SS published in our paper.

So a little history lesson From SS 5.

Who presented the Warm Up Trophy Donated by Shilen Rifles? He was employed by them at the time.

Who received his Hall of Fame Trophy?

Who owned the first ever bench rest "PORNO RIFLE"?

Who was the "TOP DAWG" after all the smoke cleared? Better known as the "NBRSA FRENCH-KISSING BANDIT".

Who was voted Bench Rest Person of the Year?

And to end it for today,

Who won the award for Best Performance at there first ever SS? This was in LV 200.

Enjoy

Not suprised at all to hear about Bill Calfee.I posted somerthing similar to this on the centerfire forum several years ago when all the hoopla started over Bill's posts and nobody even knew he shot centerfire benchrest or finished top 5 at the supershoot.
