From the early 1950’s until the late 1970’s, Mr. Jack King was a competitor to be feared in North Carolina skeet. He won Sate ad Open championships during three decades of competition. He won eleven state championships and an untold number of open championships in North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and other states as well. He was a member of three state teams in 1966, 1969 and 1970. He was a fierce competitor and a gentleman, too. His finest hour was when he became the only shooter ever inducted into the North Carolina Sports Hall of Fame.
