Cowboy Shooters,
In the next two months one has an opportunity to attend a nice assortment of cowboy matches. I am listing those I know of and a little info I know on each. I hope everyone, at some point in time, can make some matches other than just our club's so as to represent our club and to enjoy meeting and shooting with others as well.

Sept. 10th...TRP match at Gamble Gulch...6 stages...9am start Hopefully we will have as much fun as at the August shoot which was a good one.

Sept. 17th...Whoopin put on by Tejas Caballeros near Johnson City. This is a one day shoot which Verdadero has enjoyed in the past. Not sure but I believe it will have 6 to 8 stages. Website is www.tejascaballeros.org contact person is the President: Judge Menday Coming 512-964-9955

Sept. 29 to Oct 2....Defend Old Fort Parker put on by the Old Fort Parker Patriots and is between Groesbeck and Mejia, East of Waco. Thursday will be Long Range, Friday is 5 main match stages plus side matches, Sat will be the remaining 5 main match stages and awards banquet, and Sunday is Man on Man (not many did Sunday's events last year). Brushy, myself, and Dutch attended last year and other's have attended in the past. BIG Targets up REAL CLOSE. Fun match with good people. $110 website: www.oldfortparkerpatriots.com

Oct 8th....TRP match at Gamble Gulch

Oct 14-16...Battle of Plum Creek near Lockhart Texas website is www.pccss.org Cost is $80 (I think) Friday is a 6 stage Wild Bunch Match, Long Range Sight Confirmation, Western 3 Gun (3 stages), and Side Matches (derringer, pocket pistol, fastest rifle/pistol/shotgun, fastest 3 gun) Sat will be 6 stages of the Main Match and side matches including Long Range as well as Dinner with Awards Sunday is 4 stages of Match followed by Lunch with Awards

Hope you can make all the Gamble Gulch matches and hopefully some of these others as well!

Thank you for posting that information. It is good to see what is coming up so that all of us can have an opportunity to make plans. Wandering Man and I won't be able to go to any of the out of town Sat. shoots this Fall, but maybe in the spring we will be able to attend some extra matches.

Found out the Whoopin match set for the middle of September is suppose to be six stages however, if it is still too hot they will drop it to 5 stages.

Looks like we will have Lobo and Verdadero representing us at the Tejas Caballeros Whooping match this coming weekend. Best of luck to them.

At the end of the month it appears we will be represented at Defending Old Fort Parker by Mainspring (with wife along to make him behave), Snoopy, ET, Brushy Creek Bill (with his wife also along to make him behave too), and me.

Hope others are able to make these or other matches in addition to our local club match. Speaking of which, starting the second Sunday in October the Valley Vaqueros will start their season down here in the valley. It's a good opportunity for TRP shooters to shoot Saturday in George West and then drive to the valley to shoot again on Sunday. Be nice to have you cowboy shooters join us down here. Gun carts are fine to bring to the valley but are not needed.

Just got back from the Battle of Plum Creek and it is a match worth going to. They had really nice building.....I think they had two barns and I mean barns you could put horses in! But more importantly they had good stages and good people. The match was small at about 56 people and that is a shame. The day before we shot two stages of Western 3 Gun and that was fun. Food was great! I highly encourage those who can to make the trip to their Ride with Pancho Villa match the 1st weekend in March.

I understand that Dream Chaser did us proud with her performance at Plum Creek. She not only won Women's 49er, she won the Fast Pistol sidematch. Now, that wasn't the Ladies Fast Pistol...that was Fast Pistol...all comers!!! If she keeps shooting like that, we may have to come up with some sort of handicap system...

Congratulations on a great performance!
