Wartrace Regulators Cowboy/ Wild Bunch Match 8/18/12

34 Cowboys, Cowgirls and Wild Bunch shooters rolled into Wartrace for a Great day of shooting. The Cowboy shooters shot the same stages as the Main August Match which included a rifle knock-down at the Gallows, a 2 target Progressive sweep at Graftons and at Wells Fargo the 10th pistol round had to go on a rifle target and the 10th rifle round had to go down the barrel of a cannon. It was a really fun match doing some things we don't often do.

The Wild Bunch Stages were written by Tom Horn and they got in a lot more shooting than the Cowboys did. Don't let the scores fool you into thinking most of the Cowboys out shot most of the Wild Bunch. While the Cowboys had 50 shots with their revolvers, the Wild Bunch shot 140 rounds through their pistols. I'm sure they had a blast getting that much shooting in.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day for the Cowboys followed by Papa Dave, Randy Saint Eagle, Ben T. Iron, Duck River, Tombstone John, Cherohala Chase, Dusty Wilcox, Sheriff Frank Canton and Birdshot Pete (a Buckaroo) rounded out the Top 10.

CW Knight was the Wild Bunch Top Gun, followed by Frank Buckshot, Papa Oso, Deadwood Miner, Marshall Hiram Stephens, Tom Horn and Demented Frenchman.

I always like to recognize the folks who shoot a "Clean" Match and this match for a change I'm in that group. Congrats to Buck Dodgers, Papa Dave, Randy Saint Eagle, Ben T Iron and Fort Knox.

Wartrace Regulators August 4 Cowboy Match

40 Cowboys and Cowgirls ignored the hot weather and threat of rain to head to Wartrace and have some Cowboy fun. We had some clouds and a light breeze part of the day that helped and the only rain I saw was on my way home. Once again we  lucked out and had a nice day.

Whiskey Hayes wrote some fast and fun stages and 3 were "Stand and Deliver" to help out in the heat. We had some fun things we don't often do. Like a Progressive sweep on 2 targets (I got a "P" but it was because I changed how I planned to shoot it as I was heading to the loading table), a sweep sequence that didn't end on an outside target, a rifle knock down, a pistol shot on a rifle target and a rifle shot down a 6" pipe. I really enjoyed the stages and there were no "P" traps, even though I got one and if you think they were not fast look at the top score.

It was great to have 5 Cowgirls shooting with us today, I hope that number continues to increase. We had friends join us from East Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, Mississippi and Colorado. If you don't think the talent that comes to Wartrace covers the entire range of Cowboy shooters, check the scores. The Top Shooter was a Junior, 2nd was a Range Boss (75+) and the Top 10 shooters were in 10 different Categories.

The Top Gun of the day was Campo Kid with a 5 stage total time of  84.93 seconds (less than a minute and a half of shooting all day) 2nd was Papa Dave, followed by Buck Dodgers, Ocoee Red, Tabasco Jot, Duck River, Randy Saint Eagle, Ben T Iron, Dusty Wilcox and Sheriff Frank Canton rounded out the Top 10.

Someone needs to tell Campo Kid if he would slow down he'd get a whole lot more shooting time for his money.

Black Gold Shoot Out 2

Thursday morning I saddled my pony and headed to over to Tombstone's John's spread. We loaded his wagon and headed north to The Ponderosa Pines for Copperhead Joe's Black Gold Shoot Out 2. Right after we got through the badlands near Columbia, KY we had to circle the wagon to avoid trouble, but that's another story.

We rolled into Ponderosa Pines in the rain about mid-afternoon. We signed in and headed to the side matches to check out the range and make sure all our guns were ready to go. They offered all the usual side matches plus a few interesting ones. Long range wrong hand pistol and Long range Outlaw pistol for a couple.

After the Side Matches ended we checked out the vendors, visited with old friends and met some new ones. We had dinner at the range and went back to the room to get ammo ready and go over the shooters book.

Friday morning Copperhead Joe welcomed everyone to the range. T-Bone Dooley had a brief safety meeting. We had a little cowgirl sing the National Anthem, followed by the Pledge and a Prayer, then we were off to start shooting. We were blessed with a little rain (it's been pretty dry around most parts) and even more blessed that most of the rain that fell over the weekend was after the shooting was finished and gear put away. The stages were good, targets were big enough, close enough and there were no "P-Traps". After we finished 5 stages we had lunch on the range, visited with more friends before heading to the room to get ready for the night's festivities.

We had dinner at the range, side match awards and and a country band.  In case you haven't noticed the trend, all lunches and dinners were included. Also "Desert Wars" was going on with all money raised going to the SASS Scholarship Fund.

Saturday morning brought the last 5 stages and we were blessed that the rain held off until we were finished.
All the stages had some movement to them, so you didn't get bored, but not so much that you felt like you were at a track meet.

The humidity was high all weekend but they kept water and sports drinks on the range so everyone could stay hydrated. They had several canopies up so you could get in some shade if you weren't working or shooting.

Saturday night brought on more food with a real good Fish Fry. Copperheads family did the cooking all weekend and if you left hungry any day it was your own fault.

Tennessee Tall and her friends passed out door prizes and all shooters present got something. Copperhead, Miss Bo and Ringer gave out the Main Match awards and congratulated all shooters.

Top Gun of the match was Prestidigitator, Sixgun Sallie was the Ladies Top Gun. Second overall was Red River Ray, followed by Lead Ringer, Little Wing, Asleep At The Wheel, Fast Eddie, Boozy Creek, Unpleasant, Missouri Lefty and T-Bone Dooley rounded out the Top 10.

This shoot was the second leg of The Triple Crown and drew some really good shooters and close competition, the top 4 shooters were separated by 3.3 seconds. It drew shooters from 15 states and as far away as Oregon and California.

For complete scores check out their Website .

Then to close out a great weekend Blackwater Desperado and Milkbone played their great Southern Rock.



It's hard to see in the pictures but if you look to the left of some of the award pictures you can see the Rainbow God blessed us with.

Check out my YouYube Channel for some videos I took. Wartracecowboys Channel.

A special thanks to Rose and Boots, Copperhead Joe's parents, because as Joe said without them none of this would have been possible, including Joe.

If you missed this match, I'm sorry. If you're looking for a laid back match for next year check this out and sign up early cause it doubled in size from last year.

Happy Trails and may all your shots "Ring Steel".

Wartrace Regulators July 7 Cowboy Match

31 Cowboys and Cowgirls braved the 100+ degree heat to roll into Wartrace and have some Cowboy Action fun. Whiskey Hayes and Papa Dave for the first time I can remember, decided due to the extreme heat to have a relaxed cowboy dress code. The only requirement was a cowboy hat, I think it was welcomed by everyone.

Whiskey had his usual great stages with a good amount of movement on all but the Corral. But we had two clay tossers and clay birds to shoot, all we were missing was the Texas Star [or better yet 2 stars].

We shot all our stages in town, besides the Corral we shot the Train, Depot, Livery and Jail. There was plenty of ice water on the range to keep folks hydrated.

We had two shooters shooting their first Cowboy Match, Miss Scarlett and Joe Smith (a Buckaroo). I hope they enjoyed it and come back again.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day, followed by Duck River, Barkeep, Randy Saint Eagle and Papa Dave rounded out the Top 5.

We had 2 Clean shooters, Cheyenne Thornton and Deadwood Miner, congratulations guys.

We had 7 Alabama shooters come up and join us, hope you pards can make it back often. I'd like to say a special thanks to Lickskillet Charlie for delivering my bullets.

I had to work in the morning and didn't get to the range until Posse 1 was almost finished with their 2nd stage, so I wasn't able to take any pictures. I have to thank both posses for letting me cut in and jump back and forth to catch up.

Scores When Available

A few of us are heading north next week to shoot in Copperhead Joe's  Black Gold Shoot-Out
if you have some time and are looking for a really fun shoot call Joe and come on they'll make room for you.

Until we meet again, Happy Trails and may all your shots ring steel.

Wartrace Regulators Cowboy/Wild Bunch June 16 Match

31 Cowboys, Cowgirls and Wild Bunch shooters rode into Wartrace to brave the heat and try their luck on the same stages we shot at the June 2 match. As usual they were Whiskey Hayes typical good stages and they were modified by Papa Dave for the Wild Bunch shooters.

I don't know if it was just my shirt but I had 50 or more sweat bees on me at any given time. I sure am glad they don't generally sting.

Papa Dave and Buck Dodgers battled it out all day and in the end  Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day, followed by Papa Dave, Scattergun Kid, Sheriff Frank Canton and Randy Saint Eagle rounded out the Top 5 for the Cowboy shooters.

Sunflower Kid was the Top Gun for the Wild Bunch shooters, followed by C W Knight, Slim Jim Dandy, Branchwater Jack and Emmett Moon rounded out the Wild Bunch Top 5.

Congratulations to CW Knight, Sheriff Frank Canton and Sunflower Kid for shooting "Clean Matches".

It was good to see Hennessey here shooting his first cowboy match in 9 years, welcome back.

Wartrace Regulators June 2nd Cowboy Match

44 Cowboys and Cowgirls rolled into Wartrace today to live out some Cowboy fantasies and have a little  fun. Whiskey Hayes set up a good match, even at Wells Fargo Bank where some weren't fond of the pistol knock down target. The KD was close and went down easy if you hit it (which I didn't).

At the Gallows you had to shoot your way out of a hanging. At the Line Shack you were a Texas Ranger trying to arrest Juan Cortina. In Grafton's you were Blue Duck in a gunfight with Gus. At Grafton's you had split pistols and split shotgun so you covered a lot of ground in one room.  At the Cemetery you were Marshall Thomas trying to arrest Bill Doolin. Last at Wells Fargo you were Butch Cassidy robbing the bank.

Wells Fargo also had split shotgun and there were no "Stand and Deliver" stages. The weather was fantastic and the scenarios were fun.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day followed by S A Pondwater, Tabasco Jot, Ben T. Iron and C W Knight rounded out the Top 5.

We also had 9 "Clean" shooters, congratulations to Ben T. Iron, Brush Creek, Cash Jackson, Jagged Rock, Link Jones, Papa Oso, Sunflower Kid, Tennessee Nud and Willy McCoy.

Last month we presented the Eagle Eye Award,  recognizing the Wartrace Regulator with the most "Clean" matches in 2011, to Papa Oso. I included his picture in the slide show but I don't think it got noticed. Since I had to work today before the match and wasn't able to take any pictures I thought I'd post that one again.






Congratulations Papa Oso.

Wartrace Regulators Cowboy/Wild Bunch Match

On Saturday May 19, 34 Cowboys, Cowgirls and Wild Bunch shooters rolled into Wartrace for a little Cowboy fun. It was a hot day for spring but it was dry and we were happy.

We shot at the Train, Depot, KO Corral, Jail and Fort Sweeney. Whiskey wrote some great stages as usual, all had enough movement to keep it interesting except the corral and it had 7 knock downs.

We had one new to Wartrace shooter, welcome Rooster Colt.

Last year we started recognizing the Wartrace Regulator who shoots the most "Clean Matches" each year and this year we are proud to award it to  Papa Oso.

Whiskey Hayes was the Top Gun of the day and he was shooting his usual Classic Cowboy. It's impressive to see the top shooter shooting 45 Colt and duelist style pistol and a hammered double barrel shotgun.  Whiskey was followed by Randy Saint Eagle,Tombstone John, Sergeant Shooter and Emmett Moon (Top Wild Bunch).

Emmett Moon was the Wild Bunch  Top Gun  followed by Sunflower Kid, CW Knight, Frank Buckshot and Deadwood Miner rounded out the top 5.

Congratulations as well to Cheyenne Thornton, Grey Horse, Gringo Gordo, Ida Shot'em, Imis Twohofon, Papa Oso and Sunflower Kid for shooting "Clean Matches".

2012 Watertown Train Robbery

A few months ago Buffalo Red Rock approached me with the idea of robbing the train to Watertown and wanted to know if I could get the word out to the rest Wartrace Regulators and see if anyone was interested. It seems the train has been robbed before but the numbers were dwindling on the last Gang to rob it and they were trying to recruit some new help.

Well I sent out a telegraph and it seems some of the Regulators were getting stir crazy after a long winter and robbing a train seemed like a good idea.

Buffalo Red Rock procured enough ammo to pull off the job and we met with the old gang to plan this out. Seems like the train was heading to Watertown on May 12 for some kind of Shindig so we decided the passengers would have lots of money for that, then we found out a US Marshall was on the train with a shipment of gold and that just sealed the deal, the 12th it would be.

We had so many Regulators in on this that I know I'll leave someone out but I'll try to list all I can remember. Cheyenne Thornton, Mortimer Smith, Demented Frenchman, Dusty Wilcox, Papa Oso, Chickamauga Slim, Buffalo Red Rock, Randy Saint Eagle, Joe and Jo C Dirt.

We stopped the train a few miles out of Watertown on a lonely stretch of track so we could rob it without being seen. A few took a chance they could elude the law in Watertown and stayed on the train as it finished the trip just to make sure no passengers were holding out any money. The rest of us rode back into Watertown  before the news reached town so we could mix into the crowd and look like we had been there all along. We also hid the loot in one of the town buildings planning to split it up later.

It seemed like a normal day in town after a Trail Drive, a little poker playing and some bragging about who was the best shot which led to shooting holes through quarters on Main Street. There were a couple of shootouts, some back shooting and then the Marshall, with some tips from kids on the train, found the loot.  Soon after the strong box was found some of the gang tried to steal it again. Well it seems we didn't get the whole story when this job was planned and the gold was going to a scholarship fund for Watertown kids.  After learning this, a few of us had a change of heart and helped the Marshall run the Owlhoots out of town before they could get the money.

All seemed well so it was back to shooting quarters and blowing off steam on a Saturday in town. Well, we just thought the crooks had been run out of town. While we were having a big time they snuck back into town grabbed the strong box and headed toward the Depot.  Well the Marshall and all his newly appointed Deputies gave chase in a running gunfight from the town square to the Depot. The Marshall and his posse was able to get back all the loot and save the scholarship fund.

It seems we got down to the Depot just in time as Annie Oakley was setting up a trick shooting demonstration shooting holes in playing cards held up by her assistant, he didn't seem too smart holding up them cards but that little gal can shoot and he went home with all his fingers. Some of the cowboys were  still wanting to show their skill and were shooting balloons out of the air and shooting holes in quarters, some more than one at a time, I think I saw three shot at one time.

It seems there was still some bad blood between what was left of the Outlaws and the Marshall and his new Deputies that erupted into gunplay. When the smoke cleared most of the Owlhoots were on the ground  and the day was saved, just in time for the passengers to board the train and head back to a more civilized area.

 I had to work this morning but got to the range about 11 and I'd like to thank everyone on both posses for letting me jump back and forth to catch up. As usual Whiskey wrote some fast and fun stage,with enough movement to keep things interesting. Papa Dave handles the Wild Bunch stages.

 It was great to see 4 Cowgirls shooting today, I hope that number will continue to increase.

Rockcastle Rangers 4/14/12 Match

Papa Dave, Sheriff Frank Canton and I decided to head north to visit the Rockcastle Rangers. Dora Dufran and Brad Manco met us up there. Upon arrival you could tell Shaddai and the Rangers had been busy preparing for The James Gang Rides Again their second Annual Match. It looks like it is shaping up to be a Great Match.

After signing up and visiting with friends Papa Dave conducted a brief Safety Meeting, Shaddai led us in the Pledge to The Flag and Perfecto Vaquera offered a prayer. We had one posse with 15 registered shooters. This is the equivalent of their mid-month match and the crowd is a little smaller.

Shaddai had some interesting stages and always does some things that make you think a little. I enjoy shooting some scenarios I don't see very often. The stages were fast as evidenced by a 14.86 run on 24 targets on stage 2 by Campo Kid. Quite a few of us seemed to experience some gun trouble. We also had a couple of stage DQ's, but in spite of all that a few shooters put together some great times.

We shot 3 stages then were provided with a free lunch before we finished the final 3 stages.
By the time we had our gear packed they were ready for an Awards Ceremony.

Black Tom was the Top Gun, followed by Campo Kid, Shaddai Vaquero, Papa Dave and Let's Go rounded out the Top 5. Fire N Fallback and Cleve provided us with plenty of smoke.
Cowboy Brian, a brand new shooter decided not to shoot, instead he observed and helped out all day, I expect he'll be shooting their next match.

We were able to take 19 videos I posted on my Youtube Channel

We had a great time with the Rangers and hope to shoot with them again soon.

2012 South Carolina State Championship

Buck Dodgers, Tombstone John, Sheriff Frank Canton and I (Randy Saint Eagle) hitched up the covered wagon and planned to head out before daylight Thursday morning to Greenville South Carolina. I say planned because we ended up leaving about an hour later than expected (ask Frank). John brought two boxes of country ham and biscuits so we ate well on our journey.

We rolled onto the grounds of the Greenville Gun Club, home of the Greenville Gunfighters and Manse's Revenge around 2 pm. We checked in, got our badges, unhitched the wagon, unpacked our gear and headed to the Side Matches.

We were treated to the usual speed events, I don't know about Long Range, I didn't notice any signs but since I don't shoot it, I wasn't really looking. Buck had a great run with the rifle, 10 shots alternating on 2 targets in 2.74 seconds. That run held and Buck won the Speed Rifle Plaque.

After the Side Matches we finished setting up our "range camp" and found the "bunkhouse" (Phoenix Inn). After checking we we went in search of a steak, which we found at Outback.

I had to be at the range a little early Friday morning for the Posse Marshall walk thru, so we tore ourselves away from the breakfast buffet at the Pheonix and got to the range about 8 am. This was my first time to be a Posse Marshall at a big match and I want to thank Cowboy Junky for asking me. I now have a new found appreciation for Posse Marshalls.

The opening ceremonies started at 9:30 and after the Pledge, Prayer and Safety meeting we were on our stages and ready to shoot by 10 am. The stages were well thought out with good props, and enough movement to keep it fun. There was only one "Stand and Deliver" stage and it had a pistol knock down to keep it interesting.
Stages 1 and 2 are up on the hill and a pretty good hike from stage 5 but they provided a wagon to haul you and your gear up and back.

They had 2 small posses on the same stage so one worked while the other shot. This worked well and we had a good group of cowboys and cowgirls on posses 7 and 8 including Boozy Creek, Posse Marshall for 8, Sonora Moon, Rounder, Lucky RK, Shamrock Paddy, Dustin Clays, El Carerra, Santa Fe Gal, Abeline Al, Lightning McCoy, Blackwater, Three Cut, Kid Ziggy, Amorous Ali (who had to drop out the second day due to a back injury),Frank, Buck, John and I. I hope I didn't leave out anyone.

We finished the first five stages by about 1:30 and had the rest of the afternoon to check out the vendors and catch a late lunch. For every $20 you spent with a vendor you got a voucher to swap for a raffle ticket. The raffle included two guns, a knife and a holster rig.

Pants A Fire Meyer, Amy and Rocky Walls invited us to their house for a cookout Friday night where we feasted on some fine burgers and all the fixins. We also got to shoot the breeze with them, Dancin' Duelist, Potshot Parker, Harman Hammer and a couple others who's names I can't remember (sorry). We also feasted on some fantastic homemade chocolate chip cookies (thanks Amy).

Saturday brought the last five stages and they were just as good as the first five. I struggled a little on some of these, the stages were fine but I had a few too many "Senior Moments". They had a posse shoot where every posse member armed with 10 rounds in their rifle cut a 2x4 in two, all firing at the same time. Posse 9/10 won with a time of just over 7 seconds.

After all the shooting was over we broke camp and hauled our covered wagon back to the bunkhouse. We stopped on the way for ice cream in honor of Papa Dave since he couldn't make this trip with us.

I'd like to thank Cowboy Junky and all the Greenville Gunfighters for a well done match. This was their first time to host the South Carolina State Championship and it was a good one.

Saturday night was the Awards Banquet and we were treated to some good food and fellowship. Most of the cowboys and cowgirls clean up real nice.

Marshall Harland Wolf was the Top Gun of the Match, followed by Dang It Dan, Red River Ray, Cowboy Junky and Kid Ray rounded out the Top 5.

Sixgun Sally was the Ladies Top Gun, followed by Shamrock Sadie, Ms Jewel, Slick's Sharp Shooter and Carolina Girl rounded out the Ladies Top 5.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Wartrace shooter, along with winning Speed Rifle he was
3rd Wrangler 10th Overall
Randy Saint Eagle 5th Duelist 46th Overall
Tombstone John 4th Silver Senior 54th Overall
Sheriff Frank Canton 7th Senior 88th Overall
Blackwater Desperado 4th Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter 158th Overall.

They had a total of 164 shooters.

March 17 2012 Cowboy/ Wild Bunch Match

35 Cowboy, Cowgirls and Wild Bunchers converged on the Wartrace range to help us keep Blackface Charlie on the Train. Keep Ruben Burrows and his gang from stealing the Wells Fargo strong box at the Depot. Keep some local bushwackers from taking J P Wiser's supplies from the Wagon. Find out how much you love trouble at the Corral and help keep Crazy Horse and his Braves from overrunning Fort Sweeney.

We were excited to welcome Dora Dufran, Josie Sara Marcus and Brushy Bill Roberts for their Cowboy Match, it's always fun to have new shooters.

It was nice to have 6 Cowgirls shooting with us today.

The weather was Fantastic and the stages were fun, the Cowboy shooters shot the same stages as the Main March match. The Wild Bunch shot on the same stages but with more pistol rounds.

Just before we finished it clouded up and looked like we might get wet but the rain held off and we stayed dry.

Buck Dodgers was the "Top Gun" of the day, followed by Randy Saint Eagle, Scattergun Kid was shooting really fast through the smoke and finished 3rd overall shooting Frontier Cartridge. Fourth was Imis Twohofon and Jailbreak Jake rounded out the Top 5 for the Cowboy shooters.

C W Knight was the Wild Bunch "Top Gun", followed by Frank Buckshot, Dirtwood Dobber, Papa Oso and Tennessee Roadrunner rounded out the Top 5.

Congratulations to Buxom Boo for shooting the only "Clean Match" of the day.

Wartrace Regulators March 3 Cowboy Action Match

38 Cowboys and Cowgirls pulled into Wartrace early on a cool but sunny morning. This was the first match I'd been able to shoot since Jan.7 and I can't remember the last time I was able to be at the entire match instead of getting there about noon and shooting catch up.

Papa Dave had our safety meeting, Whiskey Hayes welcomed everyone Buck Dodgers offered a prayer and led us in the pledge. Whiskey was right when he said this was the best weather we'd had for a match in several months. I don't think I saw a cloud all day long and there was just enough breeze to keep you from sweating.

Whiskey Hayes had some great stages set up for this time of year. We had to run on all of them, something we can't do at the 100 degree summer matches. Two of the stages used the same targets for rifle and pistol. At the wagon we started at the back of the wagon, ran to the first location, shot the rifle, moved to where the shotgun was staged, grabbed it and moved down range to shoot the shotgun and pistols. At the corral we shot the shotgun, rifle then carried the rifle down range and placed it on a barrel then shot the pistols. At the train we shot 2 shotgun KD's from the engine, moved to the coal car for the rifle and pistols then back to the engine for the final 2 shotgun KD's.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day followed by Papa Dave (1 rank point and just over 5 seconds back), Sergeant Shooter, CW Knight and Cherohala Chase rounded out the Top 5. Buck was the fastest on the Train, Wagon and Fort Sweeney and Papa was fastest at the Depot and the KO Corral.

Congratulations to Ida Shot'em and Papa Dave for shooting the match "Clean", something that takes lots of concentration.

Before the match I decided to try out a back-up rifle I hadn't shot in a while and some pistols I just got back from being slicked up and short-stroked by Slick McClade. I broke the firing pin on the 3rd shot out of the rifle, guess I've got something to do this week now. The pistols worked great but after the second stage I decided I need to practice a lot to get used to the really light trigger pull, I ended up with 8 misses, all from pulling the trigger before I really meant to. With 196 misses out of 36 shooters, remember the other 2 shot clean, I guess I'm not the only one who needs to clear the cobwebs out and get back into the swing of shooting.

Willie McCoy was there selling bullets and said he plans to be set up at every main month match.

Lone Wolf Swain was supposed to be there with shot and bullets but the Friday tornadoes in Alabama came close enough to him that he had to spend the day cutting trees, I hope everyone is ok after this last round of storms.

We had a few new folks join the Wartrace Regulators Saturday but they didn't shoot the match, hopefully they'll be ready to shoot by next match.

Latigo Jim is having some health problems and wasn't able to be with us, I hope he can get back to shooting soon.


I was only able to take a few pictures.






I also took a few videos.

Wartrace Regulators 12/3/11 Cowboy Match

30 Cowgirls and Cowboys came to Wartrace to enjoy the fantastic December weather and shoot our match. Whiskey Hayes, as always, wrote some fun stages. We had enough movement to keep it interesting but without feeling like you had run a marathon.

We shot pistols at each window, then shotgun at each window in Graftons. At Wells Fargo we started inside, carried gold nuggets outside and shot pistols, went back inside for the rifle and ended up with 6 shotgun kd's. We also shot from 2 locations at the Gallows and the Train. The KO Corral was the only "Stand and Deliver" stage, but we started with the shotgun on a clay tosser and clay then alternated between a rifle target and the Texas Star before finishing with pistols.

I had to work in the morning and got to the range about noon and I have to thank all the cowboys and cowgirls for letting me jump back and forth between posses and shoot through. This year I've had to shoot through more times than not and I appreciate every one's patience with me.

Will Reilly was the Top Gun of the day followed by Randy Saint Eagle, Papa Dave, CW Knight and Whiskey Hayes rounded out the Top 5.

We always like to congratulate those who shoot "Clean Matches" , this match we had 3, Fort Knox, Whiskey Hayes and Randy Saint Eagle. This was my first clean match at Wartrace and only my second of the year.

Complete Scores, when available.



Our next match at Wartrace will be the Dec.17 Cowboy/Wild Bunch, Safety Meeting will be at 9:30 for more info always check our Website

Wartrace November Cowboy/ Wild Bunch Match

25 Cowboys, Cowgirls and Wild Bunch shooters came out to take advantage of really good November weather. The morning started out cool but we got up to the upper 60's. We had a pretty stiff breeze but it was a good day.

Latigo Jim had a brief safety meeting and Sergeant Shooter offered a prayer and led us in the pledge.

We had one Cowboy Posse and one combined Cowboy/ Wild Bunch Posse. The Cowboys and Cowgirls shot the same scenarios we shot at the Main November Match including pulling shotshells out of a bucket you had to carry to each location. We also had to run from the fence to the pump at the corral before shooting at a Buffalo on the hill, a clay bird and the Texas Star.

The Wild Bunch had less gimicks and movement but shot more pistol rounds so the Overall times were close together.

CW Knight was the Wild Bunch Top Gun, followed by Frank Buckshot, Papa Dave, Papa Oso, Deadwood Miner and Tom Horn. CW Knight and Papa Oso also shot "Clean" matches.

Sergeant Shooter was the Cowboy Top Gun, followed by Dusty Wilcox, Sheriff Frank Canton, Wes Outlaw and Imis Twohofon rounded out the Top 5. Sergeant Shooter and Sheriff Frank Canton also shot "Clean" matches.

I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. I shot my first match as a Gunfighter and while I didn't shoot real well I had lots of fun. The Gunfighters don't have to worry (or laugh) I'm not changing Categories, just playing.

November Cowboy Match




We had great weather for the Wartrace November Cowboy Match, cool in the morning and sunny and warm by mid-day. Whiskey Hayes took advantage of the good forecast and wrote some really fun stages. He added a little movement since we finally got out of the abusive heat. 38 Cowboys and Cowgirls came out to join in the fun.

At the Outlaw Cabin we started in the center then move to one side to shoot the rifle, the other side for the shotgun and back to the center for the pistols.

At the Cemetery we started at the wheelbarrow shooting the pistols, moved to a coffin to shoot the rifle and back to the wheelbarrow for the shotgun.

The Depot added the challenge of having to retrieve your shotgun shells from a bucket you had to carry from the starting position to each shooting position.

The KO Corral was a real hoot, you started with your back against the fence, gun order was shooters choice except rifle couldn't be shot last. With pistols put 5 shots each on 2 targets, Rifle, 5 shots each on a large square and the Buffalo on the hill (those who shot the Team Match at the State Championship will remember the Buffalo on the hill), rifle and pistol were both shot from the pump. The real fun came with the shotgun, shot from the trough, first you shot the clay tosser then the clay (with a KD target to shoot in case you missed the clay) next you cleaned the Texas Star. We don't get to shoot 7+ shot shells on a stage very often. This was a long stage to shoot and to reset but it sure was fun.

At Fort Sweeney you started at the window, shot pistols outside,outside,inside,inside,then 6 shots on the center target. Move left to the platform, shoot the same sequence with the rifle and then engage the 6 KD targets with the shotgun.

I worked that morning and got to the range at noon and both posses were kind enough to let let me jump in and shoot through. I was able the finish out the last 2 stages with the same posse.

Buck Dodgers was the Top Gun of the day followed by Will Reilly, Sergeant Shooter, Papa Dave and Randy Saint Eagle rounded out the top 5.

Also congratulations to Emmett Moon,Papa Oso, Sergeant Shooter and Will Reilly for shooting "Clean Matches".

Smokeout in the Hills 2011 Possum Trott

Dobber, Branchwater Jack and I left last Thursday and headed to The Smokeout In The Hills at Possum Trott to meet up with our cabin mate, Buck D Law.

Also from Wartrace were Blue Boy, Imis Twohofon, Blackwater Desperado, Hatfield.

This was my 3rd trip to Possum Trot and I believe it was the best one I've been to. Thursday night had Jambalaya and a Poker Tournament. Friday morning started with a breakfast of country ham, eggs, bisquits, gravy and fried apples.

The Long Range Side Matches ran from 8:30 till noon and Dobber and I tried some of them. Dobber won one of the 200 yard rifle events and I won the long range smokeless pistol match.

After lunch we had the regular Speed side matches plus Ringers Humdinger which covered 3 stages 8 guns and was a ball.

Friday night brought out the Chili Cook-off (which was also part of supper), the best Home Brew Contest, Liars Contest and the Pie Eating Contest which for the first time was won by a Lady, congratulations to Tequila Liz.

Saturday morning brought the start of the Main Match and Posse 2 with Cheyenne Culpepper as Posse Marshall had more fun than was believed possible. We had the Honor of having Blue Boy, the oldest active competitor in SASS, on our Posse. I can't remember but I believe Blue Boy is 92 or 93 and still has a good time shooting. Posse 2 also had our share of Category Winners, 8 winners out of 16 posse members.

I usually don't try to name all the posse members for fear of leaving someone out but we had so much fun I'm going to try. I apologize in advance if I forget anyone.

Shooting smokeless were Tequila Liz, Luscious Liza, Speedy Fredrico (1st Elder Statesman), Blue Boy ( oldest active competitor in SASS) and Long Wolf.

Shooting black powder were Imis Twohofon, Dobber, Kirk (1st 49r), Branchwater Jack, Witch Doctor (1st Ladies Senior), Ole Saddlebags (1st Wrangler), Randy Saint Eagle (1st Duelist), Mckensie River Drifter (1st Elder Statesman), Pig Iron Lane (1st Senior), Cheyenne Culpepper (1st Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter) and Fast Eddie.

Saturday night we feasted on Copperhead Joe's fish receipe that is bound to win the Parking Lot War at Comin' At Cha. It was some fine fish. After that we were treated to a great concert from Blackwater Desperado and Milkbone and as usual they do Southern Rock proud.

Sunday brought Cowboy Church with Cree Vicar Dave and his wife. We had a good service and got to hear Dave play his new Mandolin.

After Church we finished the final 4 stages and then feasted on a lunch of everything that was left over, if we'd had a couple more days there I'd have to buy new pants. Thanks to Baby Bull and Miss Julia for the fine breakfasts and to everyone who helped feed us so well.

After lunch Ringer had the scores together and Copperhead Joe passed out the awards.

Silver City Rebel was the Top Cowboy followed by Fast Eddie, Copperhead Joe, Cheyenne Culpepper and Pig Iron Lane rounded out the Top 5. Anita Marguarita was the Top Cowgirl.

Also congratulations to Hatfield and Ole Saddlebags, the only ones to shoot a Clean Match.

They also gave away free 14 entries to matches, Branchwater Jack won one to The Midwest Classic and I won one to The Georgia State Championship.

While this was a Great Match it was also a sad one as we learned this will be the last Smokeout at Possum Trott. Next year look for the Smokeout at Copperhead Joe's Range.

The Wartrace Regulators finishes:

Blue Boy, 2nd Smokeless Elder Statesman

Blackwater Desperado, 4th Frontier Cartridge Gunfighter, 48th Overall

2011 Tennessee SASS State Championship

The Wartrace Regulators hosted the 8th Regulators Reckoning, The Tennessee State Championship Oct. 6-8.

157 Cowgirls and Cowboys from 12 states were treated to FANTASTIC weather. The Lord blessed us with better weather than we could have asked for.

Thursday started out with the usual Side Matches, but with some new winners including
Marshal WD.

Side Match Winners

Friday morning started with Whiskey Hayes welcoming everyone and telling about the match.

Papa Dave gave the Safety Meeting and Charlie Bowdre gave thanks and then led us in the Pledge Of Allegiance.

We shot the first 5 stages either on the Hill or in the Old Town depending on which posse you were on. Whiskey Hayes wrote some fast and interesting stages with no "P" traps in any of them. When you look at the scores you'll see how fast they actually were.

After the 5 Main Match stages were finished we had a Team Match consisting of 3 person teams shooting the Texas Star with a rifle, pistol and shotgun knock downs and a clay bird. The teams were drawn from a hat so it made it very interesting. 10 teams tried it and the winning team consisted of Duck River, Sgt. Shooter and Ruff Edge.

This was followed by dinner on the range prepared by Rollin' Chopstix and it was as good a meal on a range as I have ever had. They were also our food vendor for the entire weekend including breakfast, pancakes and country ham on the range are hard to beat.

After dinner we had the Side Match Awards and Dooley Gang inspired high speed tag team door prize drawings. Thanks to sponsors, vendors and prize contributors we handed out well over 100 door prizes. I might have even seen lots of Jack Daniels.

Next up was Chickamauga Slim and Karaoke. I heard some pretty good singing including Charlie Bowdre. When I left the karaoke was still going with a group of cowboys singing, last I heard they were still trying to come up with a name. I kind of like Buck and the Dodgers.

Saturday morning brought the final 5 stages of the match and the weather was just as Great as the first 2 days. I was able to take some videos on Saturday and got to see some fantastic shooting. To see some of what I saw check out my YouTube channel. I didn't get names on all the videos so feel free to add names in the comment blocks.

Saturday night brought what I believe is one of the Best Awards Banquets in all of CAS. The food was great as usual and this year they did some rearranging so it wasn't crowded like last year. Whiskey Hayes gave away two guns donated by Ruger, our Main Match Sponsor.

First in the Awards we gave buckles to all the Category State Champions, then we sent them to see Mose and Bella. If you haven't heard the IDNR (Illinois Dept. of Natural Resources) is giving every SASS Category State Champion a free entry to the 2012 US Open. Mose and Bella are handling this and it looks like it will be the largest Cowboy Action Shooting Match in the World. If you didn't win an entry you better register early to be a part of this History Making Event. To read more about this click on the News Flash link and scroll down.

Next we passed out the plaques to the Top 5 shooters in each Category, and then the Top Guns.

Prestidigitator was the Top Gun and Dew R Dye was the Top Lady.

The Top 10 were Tator, Silver City Rebel, Duke Skywalker, Fast Eddie, Mose Spencer, Dew R Dye, Knob Creek Drover, Buck Dodgers, Shell Stuffer and Risin' Outlaw.

17 Cowboys and girls shot a clean match, congratulations to them, their names can be seen on the Complete Scores Link.

Rockcastle Rangers Sept. Match

Papa Dave, Sheriff Frank Canton and I headed north to spend the day with The Rockcastle Rangers. Also making the trip were Buck Dodgers, Tombstone John, Will Reilly, CW Knight, Randy Atcher and Tom Horn.

This was my first trip to this range since spring and Shaddai and the Rangers have done a lot of work since then. The range is really looking good.

After a Safety Meeting, Prayer and Pledge 25 Cowboys and Cowgirls shot 3 stages before a free lunch the the final 3 stages. The stages were some I've not shot before and they made you think. 2 of the stages were very similar, but opposite so I was glad one was our first stage and the other was our last.

I enjoyed the Stages even though I had to think. Sometimes I think we get so used to ordinary stages we don't have to think much.

I finally broke my 13 month streak and shot a "Clean" match, but not without some help from Shaddai to keep me from getting a "P" on the last stage.

Dusty Walker was the Top Gun, and also shot "Clean" , followed by Buck Dodgers, Campo Kid, Black Tom and Cumberland Drifter rounded out the Top 5.

The Rangers also have a new Website. and I think the scores will be posted on that sight.




To see all 8 videos go to my YouTube Channel

Don't forget The Tennessee State Championship is coming Oct. 6-8. Hope to see you there.

Until next time Happy Trails.

2011 SASS US Open

Buck Dodgers drove the Stage Coach to the US Open and hauled Papa Dave, Sheriff Frank Canton, Tombstone John and Randy Saint Eagle. We went up on Wednesday and got a good spot to park our equipment trailer and checked out the range. We met up with CW Knight, Branchwater Jack, Jailbreak Jake, Blackwater Desperado and Hatfield.

It was my, along with several others, first trip to this range and I was impressed. You could tell Mose, Bella, The Kaskaskie Cowboys, The Dooley Gang and IDNR (Illinois Department of Natural Resources) had really been working hard.

This Match was all inclusive which I really like. It even included a Dooley Gang Shooting School with T-Bone, Nuttin' Graceful, my pard, Ringo (By Gawd) Fire, Copperhead Joe, Stormy Shooter and a Buckaroo named Rattlesnake Wrangler (you'll hear that name a lot in the future). We had a great time, I feel like I learned a lot and did I mention it was FREE.

There was plenty to do every day from morning till late night. Did I mention this range is on 1600 acres with over 1000 RV hookups and 3.5 miles of trap fields if wanted to try it.

Thursday after the Shooting School we burned up lots of ammo at the Side Matches and Buck Dodgers won the Double Barrel Shotgun Speed Match and with a faster time than Copperhead Joe who won the 97 Event. Rattlesnake Wrangler won the Speed Rifle with a 2.96 and Prestidigitator won the Speed Pistol, Missouri Lefty (another Buckaroo) and Rattlesnake Wrangler tied .01 seconds behind Tator.

The Main Match started on Friday morning with 5 stages followed by the Team Side Match. Papa Dave, Sheriff Frank, Tombstone John and I shot on Team 10 and had a ball. This was a 3 Stage Match that started with a clay bird flurry, 24 birds thrown up from 3 different machines and they counted the unbroken ones that hit the ground. Our team let 6 get to the ground. Each of the other 2 stages had part of the team shooting at clay birds, it was great fun.

Friday night we had a dinner and Side Match Awards. Branchwater Jack placed in both the Black Powder and the Wild Bunch Matches.

Saturday we finished the last 5 Main Match stages. All 10 stages were interesting and fun to shoot. Posse 3 with Sgt. Eli as Posse Marshall had to have been the best Posse. Everyone worked, the Posse ran smooth and both days we were finished shooting by 1:30.

Papa Dave and I stayed at the range and watched the Top Gun Shoot off (anyone who wanted to could shoot in it). It was probably the first ever all Clay Bird Shoot off in SASS. Each shooter had 24 stationary clay birds spread out in stands they had to shoot with their revolvers and rifle before grabbing their shotgun and cleaning up whatever was left. After all birds were broken they ran to the center of the stage and shot a stop plate. Tator was the Top Gun and Sixgun Sallie was the Top Lady shooter.

At the Awards Dinner on Saturday night we got some of the most exciting news in SASS.

NEWS FLASH!!!!!!

[SASS Wire Post] Sparta Illinois loves cowboy action shooting!!!! The IDNR (Illinois Department of Natural Resources) formally announced on September 10th, 2011, at the SASS U.S. Open awards banquet, that they would like to honor all champions across the United States. In doing so, the IDNR will pay for every Resident champion, in every category, and from each state-level and above a free match entry to the 2012 SASS U.S. Open.

That’s right!! You read it right and heard it right!! If you’d been at the banquet you would have heard the IDNR representatives announce it personally. This is for cowboy action shooting only (no certificates will be awarded for mounted, wild bunch, black powder, or other club events).

If you are a match director for a state-level and above event, please contact Honey B. Graceful (sasshoney@yahoo.com) or Tbone Dooley (903-272-9283) to see if your match qualifies and for more details and a downloadable/printable free match entry.
