FOR THE YEAR 1915 WAS WON BY MR. WOOLFOLK HENDERSON, OF LEXINGTON, KY., USING Driers shells He Shot at 2800 Registered Targets, Broke 2731; Percentage .9753 THE HIGHEST YEARLY AMATEUR AVERAGE ON RECORD. Woolfolk Henderson The wonderful record of Mr. Henderson in 1914, when he won the Four great amateur honors, is still fresh in the minds of the shooting trater- nity. In that year he captured the Grand American Handicap, the Single Target and Double Target Championships of the United States and the High Amateur Average. His performance in 1915 is therefore but the continuation of a marvelous and thoroughly consistent recoro, maae possible by ammunition of superlative quality. PETERS SHELLS have been used by the winner of the United States Hight Amateur Average (official) FIVE OUT OF THE PAST SIX YEARS THE PETERS CARTRIDGE CO., Pacific Coast Branch, 585-587 Howard Street, San Francisco, Cal. f. The Big Winner In 1915 i-fei The Interstate Association's Official High Professional Average for the season of 1915 was won by Spencer of St. Louis, Mo., with the marvelous record of 97.5% for 5620 targets. Such an number of targets not only shows Mr. Spencer's great skill, but also proves the Charles G. average for such a lar; uniform and unequalled quality of C. G. Spencer WWCHMSTBR LOADED SHELLS AND SHOTGUNS which Mr. Spencer used exclusively. It was this same combination that he used when he made his mar- velous straight run of 565 targets âthe World's Record. Contests for the Season's Trapshooting Averages have been held 16 times and 12 of them have been won by W shells or guns, or both, which is undeniable evidence of their superiority. Lester German, of Aberdeen, Md., who was second high for the season, and who also made the greatest score of the year for a single tournamentâ499 x 500âused Winchester shells in performing this great feat. J Mownell Hawkins, of Baltimore, Md., shot 7,265 targets in competition during 1915, and made the splendid average of 95.56%, using Winchester shells and shotguns exclusivelyâmore proof of their uniform shootmg quali- ties. These performances show the reason why Winchester shells and guns are PREFERRED AND USED BY MEN OF ACHIEVEMENT
