October 2007 Newsletter:
What
a wonderful day for a shoot; calm, cool and sunny!!!
Several of our pards attended
the state match at Wartrace but we did have 56 cowboys and cowgirls participate
in the October match at the ORSA range.
Three
new visitors participated in our monthly match: Pistol
Creek Tom, Silver Stallion and Trooper Jake.
We hope you had a good time and hope to see
ya again soon.
Anvil
has placed in the top 5 or 10 in most of the matches
he participated in this year and this month he finally
came in as the top gun.
Widowmaker
has been knocking at the door too and again came in
second. The other top ten in order were (sleepy) Fiddleback, Marshall Too Tall, Purly,
Tucson
Tuco, Moonshine Roberts, Keystone, Grey Duck and Slater. An interesting side note is that the top
three seniors Purly,
Tucson Tuco
and Grey Duck
all were in the top 10 and finished in the same order
as last month and almost at the same rankings.
Roma Jane was the top lady shooter this month. The rest of the ladies (in order) were Ambush Annie, Cookie Lynn and Shortcake.
