January 12th 2003

It seems longer than 2 months since the last shoot I attended which was the second Sunday in November at Circle K. It sure felt good to be the kickoff for the 2003 Cowboy shoots and see the smiles and grins of all the attending shooters to be able to get together and throw led down range. To once again hear that music to the ears of lead hitting metal sure sounded good to me.
 

Range 1 is challenging, as all targets have to be at least 25 yards, which is challenging to say the least. We had setup six stages, which gave us a little more lead to dispense. Thanks to all that had to forego the use of black powder due to shooting from inside. I definitely want to thank everyone for pitching in to help put the targets away as it sure saved us a lot of time.
 

We had a total of 20 shooters for this first match and I can honestly say I would truly enjoy shooting with this posse anytime anywhere. I truly think everyone enjoyed the day in everyway and look forward to seeing you all back in February.
Once again I want to thank New York Annie, Esmeralda and my wife for their excellent Chuck Wagon chow.
 

The results by class:
