Melanie Parker

Melanie began her love of shooting at a very young age hunting for wild quail and shooting dove with her grandfather in the orange groves and fields of central Florida. After a successful career as an Operations Manager for a big box retailer, she moved to Valdosta, GA where she met and married her husband Team Kolar member Malcolm Parker. It was Malcolm that introduced her to the world of Sporting Clays as she rode along, watching and learning for 5 years before ever shooting an event. She and Malcolm have been married for 15 years and enjoy family, traveling, fishing and shooting together all over the United States. Melanie attributes a large part of her success to shooting with great shooters, great coaching and of course, shooting the best gun on the market! She says the balance of her Kolar is unmatched and she loves the reliability and performance of her gun. She also appreciates the level of personal customer service that everyone associated with Kolar provides. Melanie is a certified NSCA Instructor and is an NSCA Life Member.
