INDUCTED 2007 - B. J. MOORE 
 
 

On June 24th, 2007, Bill (BJ) Moore was inducted into the California Trapshooting Hall of Fame.

Friend and fellow trapshooter Doyle Mack introduced Bill at the ceremony. Here is what he said:

It is my pleasure to introduce BJ Moore for his induction into the California Golden State Trapshooting Hall of Fame.

BJ Moore was introduced to the sport of Trapshooting by his Banker in 1977. This was in the form of an invitation to join him at the Old Peninsula Gun Club for an evening of shooting. Bill was invited back the following Thursday. Bill continued shooting every Thursday but did not see his Banker there again.

Bill's first gun was a Winchester side by side. During this period Bill met what turned out to be life long friends -- Bob Uhalde and Rich Cocanour. Over the next few months they convinced him that he should start shooting in the South Bay Trap League. This was the start of his life as a trap shooter.

Bill registered his first ATA targets in 1978. Since this time, Bill has attended 28 Grand American Shoots. Bill continues to shoot in the SBTL, and for the last six years has managed the league (with front office help from his wife Sylvia). In this capacity, Bill continues to evangelize the sport and entice new shooters into joining the SBTL and into the ATA brotherhood.

Over the last five years, Bill has won the following major awards:
