National Yearly Average 
Championship 
1906 
WON BY 
W. H. HEER and U. M. C. SHELLS 
• » 
He scored 96.3 per cent, of the 14,055 targets shot at during the year. This is the 
greatest honor in the trap shooting world as well as the severest test which can be applied 
to Shot Shells, for it is the highest year’s percentage ever made by any shooter. U. M. C. 
Quality, therefore, stands to-day supreme as proven by “Sporting Life’s” annual Trap 
Shooting Review. Mr. Heer’s Arrow Shells are always uniform in velocity, pattern and 
penetration, thus enabling this wonderful shot to go through a whole year with less than 
four targets missed out of every hundred shot at. 
Two of the Four Highest Amateurs 
used U. M. C. Shells exclusively. Harry Taylor scored 93.8 per cent, out of 9,950 targets 
and O. N. Ford scored 93.3 per cent, out of 13,770 targets. The other two high 
amateurs shot assorted makes. 
U. M. C. SHELLS 
were used by five of the nine highest shooters who used one make of shells exclusively 
throughout the year. . • 
This present brilliant showing for Arrow Shells during 1906 is backed by many past 
records, among which may be mentioned the winning of 10 out of 17 Grand American 
Handicaps—a bigger percentage of winnings than those of any gun, shell or powder concern.
