NAME:George Pantazelos       

BIOGRAPGHY-  I am married to Carrie Pantazelos, a loving and supportive wife who must be crazy to put up with my antics. She has given me a beautiful 2 year old daughter named Maia and we have another child on the way. I grew up shooting Skeet, sporting clays, and upland hunting with my dad. This created my appreciation of the shooting sports. My dad taught me how to hunt on those weekends but he taught me many other things too. They were truly wonderful experiences. I had a 22 for plinking in the yard but I didn’t use it much because of the noise. I Joined the Braintree rifle and pistol club 4 years ago and started shooting Highpower. I progressed very quickly. My first classification was Master. I won the first 80 shot match I entered with a High Master score. I was instantly hooked. The ability to practice for less money with less recoil drew me to smallbore shooting. I wanted to concentrate on the fundamentals without the distraction of the recoil. I have been shooting smallbore rifle, Bullseye pistol, and Highpower rifle for 4 years and had much success in all of the disciplines. I do almost all of the work on my guns as I have a small machine shop in my house. My other interests include amateur ski racing and golf.
