June 2007 Newsletter:

Several cowboys arrived just after dawn on Saturday, June 9th – and it looked like a good day for Cowboy Action Shooting. It was! And 69 eager cowboys and cowgirls arrived to test their skills.

Posse Reports:

Posse 2

This posse had a blast!!!! T-Bone Angus was the posse leader and the posse moved along at a fast pace even with three black powder shooters on it (Owlhoot Hardin, Rusty Spur Slim and Hombre Sin Nombre). T-Bone and last kiss ensured that we all had fun without compromising safety. Sometimes it was a little confusing with two Marshals on the posse (Marshal Too Tall and Marshal Too Sweet) but we soon got that worked out. This was a working posse! All duties were carried out by several shooters switching off as needed without any prompting at all.

Rusty Spur Slim, who with Killin Time are our newest club members, placed in the top ten shootin’ cap and ball and black powder. Killin Time was the top lady shooter and 15th overall. They really contributed to the fun character of this posse. What a good-shootin’ posse too! Three shooters placed in the top ten (Marshal Too Tall, Anvil and Rusty Spur Slim) and three additional members of the posse placed in the top 20 (T-Bone Angus, Fast Harley and Killin’ Time). Last Kiss was again on form shootin Lady Gunfighter (25th overall). Jalapeno Papa placed highly in the duelist category. Keystone had just returned from a tiring trip to Pennsylvania but nevertheless had a good match. We had two relative newcomers on the posse (Marshall Too Sweet and Sheriff Roy Coffee) but they shot well, shot safely and worked hard like everyone else.
