NEXT MATCH:  Aug 19th

Desperado Declares

When the 1st of the month falls on a Sunday, it moves our shoot to the 4th Sunday of the month.  That’s the same day as The Cowboys and we usually have a light turn out.  But we always have fun, great stages and good food. The new unfinished road going to range three is easier to walk up, and that's a good thing.

We want to thank all of the shooters who help us break down the stages and load the target trailers after the match.  It really makes life easier on us old guys that set up the stages.

I've wanted to set steel sleeves in the ground for quite a while, so all we have to do is drop the stakes for the rifle targets into them, rather than pounding them into the ground with a sledgehammer.  That also makes it a lot easier to remove them; they just slip right out. I finally got several of our members together and got it done. Thanks again to all of you shooters who help us tear down.

The competition was hot and heavy again.  Swifty Swede finished ahead of Dead Eye Maverick by 1.31 sec.   Muleskinner Pat edged out Desperado by 0.24 sec. Johnny San Angelo got Bronco Lane by 0.18 sec., Bodie-601 and Gun Hawk tied with a 321.81 each. Tex Fiddler was the overall winner with a final time of 182.75.

The 15th annual Great Northfield Raid will be held on November 16th thru 18th, 2007. Entry forms will be out shortly.

Hope to see ya all next time.
