The West Point Gun Club will be having their monthly Double Action match this Thursday, May 9th. The gates open at 8:00 AM, setup starts at 8:30 AM, sign up starts at 8:30 AM and shooting starts at 10:00 AM. In addition to our 6 stage Double Action match, we will be having the following:

    – 24 round 1911 stage using Wild Bunch Rules (smaller frame carry 1911’s are OK to use)
    – We will also be shooting a 29 round stage (24 with normal DA Firearm then 5 rounds with a J-Frame) this will be one of the 6 DA stages.
 
Also if there is time after the normal stages have been completed we may have another 1911 stage so you may want to bring extra ammo for the 1911.

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Sorry it has taken me so long to get the scores out but the iPad didn’t want to cooperate.

We didn’t have many to shoot but y’all missed a great weather day and a great match and I ain’t saying that just because Potter wrote it.  We also missed y’all.

Happy Birthday Major B. S. Walker, he was the overall match winner and yesterday was his birthday.  Congrats to Flatboat Bob, Longhorn Louie and Sassy for shooting CAD.

It was good to see Remo and have him shoot with us today.  Please be in prayer for a speedy recovery to Goosefoot who is home recovering from back surgery. 

Here is the latest update from Ripsaw:

Eye is much better today and each day. Scooting around the house in a transport chair. Doctor appointments this coming week and should get some stitches out this coming week. New cast on ankle May 8. Wanted you to see the improvement in the eye (will send as a separate email). Still plenty sore but I think it will all heal ok.  Thanks for the prayers and well wishes.  You guys are the best. Ripsaw

Hope to see y’all at Father Time next week. Travel safe.

Sassy and Potter

Mattaponi Sundowners: Gathering match results

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Well what a wonderful weekend; a bit breezy but NO rain, sunshine and temps that we could live with and not have a lot of shivering or sweating.  We also had a wonderful match written by Prairie City Slim.  Thank You, Slim!  Thanks to  everyone for all of the hard work setting up on Friday, working of the match and tear down after the match.  A well oiled machine, otherwise known as “Cowboys/Cowgirls”.  Thanks for those that helped me keep Potter somewhat tied down this weekend.

Congrats to Cody Maverick as Overall Top Cowboy and to J. C. Phoenix as Overall Top Cowgirl!!!  Congrats to Beartooth, One Eyed Jane, Flatboat Bob, Cotton Connie, Longhorn Louie, Missouri Marshal, and Wendover Kid for shooting the match CAD.   Also, congrats to Cody Maverick as top shooter in Wild Bunch.

I can not express what the support to this match has meant to us, we love and appreciate each one of you.  We hope the Ohm’s Law, Old Salt and Le Diablo Don come back and join us again.  THANK YOU all for coming, bring a Cowboy spirit and for sharing a good time with us.

Please keep Doc Pill Filler and his wife’s family in your prayers as her aunt passed away during the match yesterday.  Please keep Remo Williams and Clementine in your prayers.  Remo is undergoing home hemodialysis during the nights and Miss Clementine is in the hospital with sepsis and C Diff.  They all could use some prayers, cards and calls.

Mattaponi Sundowners will be having a match next Saturday with more details coming out later in the week.  I understand that Pepper Mill Creek gang will start their shooting season opening on Sunday.

As Roy and Dale said, “Happy Trails until we meet again.”
