Leland “Billy” Myers for his service to his local club, Eel River, the California State Association, and 25 years as a member of the PITA executive committee, holding every office, sometimes more than once, as well as being a rather good shooter to boot. Over 250,000 targets and counting, his dedication to the PITA cannot be overstated. Welcome “Billy”!
Anyone that has ever heard of trapshooting has heard of Daro Handy. Daro is one of the most controversial and talented trapshooters this sport has ever known. Daro was in the Air Force for over four years and during that time he won the European Championships and the Cup of Nations. Daro was the only American to have won these titles. Since his discharge he has registered over 500,000 targets. At the time of his induction, Daro had broken over forty 100 straights and a long run of 505 in handicap, had over thirty five 100 straights in doubles and a long run of 1,200 in singles. Daro was on the All-Star team for 24 consecutive years and had been Captain 15 times. Among Daro’s many titles are 18 championships at the Grand Pacific and over 43 Oregon State Championship titles. In 1990, he won all five championship events (singles, handicap, doubles, HOA, and HAA) at the Oregon State Shoot. In 1963 Daro received seven yardage punches for known ability while never winning a handicap. He would have broken five more 100 straights in handicap, but missed his 100th target each time. If there is anyone in the world of trapshooting that deserves to be in the Hall of Fame, it is Daro Handy.
