I know how poorly I have done in the past, I dont think I will keep a chart for the next 23 years. I am shooting now at the level that won matches when I started. The game has passed my ability by.
Congrats on your improvement, keep it up.

Boy, that makes two of us. Once upon a time I thought I was going to be competitive. Um…, no.

Who gets to define what that is?
Maybe the guy who used to wear the Dallas Cowboy uniform? I don’t remember his alias, but everybody seemed to think he was the bee’s knees.

He used to come to Bakersfield ( I think) on business and would shoot with us in Ridgecrest, and even drove all the way up to Bridgeport at least once. Good guy!
-
I don’t have one, but Turkish Charles Daly would be a cool alias.

Dana Loesch is there. That works for me.

I knew they re-used aliases, but didn’t know they reissued member numbers.

Ace of Hearts was a good cowboy and a good guy. Very sorry to see him go.

Oral histories aren't worth the paper they're written on.

Griff, I had no idea!... Thank you and I'll make the correction. Good to see a picture of you!
I still have no idea.

When I started this game in '95, Lucky Smucky was running the matches at West End. It was a great place to shoot, and lots of great folks: Har Trigger, China Camp. Capt. John Sutter, Stony Burke, Island Girl, R.J. Poteet, Dastardly Dave, Calamity Jane, Justin O'Sheriff, Lady Jailer. I have lots of others in my mind's eye but can't come up with the names. I shot Showdown several times. It was always a fun match.

Yep.

And many more!

My neighbor said he lost 150 pounds of ugly fat when his step-son moved out.

I enjoy plinking with family and friends. We shoot whatever everybody brings.
Cowboy Earl has started putting on muzzle loader trail walks at our range, and I enjoy doing that. We're going to put on our second ever bolt action military match (BAMM) next weekend.

Maybe the people who don't share personal info are former professional wrestlers. "...and his opponent, from parts unknown, height unknown, weight unknown..."

Grant entered West Point at 16. I think it was possible to be old enough for the academy and not old enough to enlist.

About 15 years or so ago I was loitering around after a West end Outlaws match at Lytle Creek in so/cal, philosophizing about shooting with a shooter named Choctaw. He was a Senior at the time, and was darn near unbeatable. Won EOT Senior lots of times. At one point in the conversation, he said something like, "If a guy was really serious about shooting a single action, he would just have his pinky amputated." I wasn't that serious.

Good stuff. Thanks.

I like those grips. That's what my Colts wear.

Negan... TWD fella who also deserves a snuff-endin', as well? Why give him the satifaction of aleviatin' somebody's problem? I would put the bat to him, myself. hehehe
I used to be in favor of the death penalty. But there have been so many on death-row that have DNA-tested otherwise... that, over the years, I begun to re-think my philosophy. Absolute proof... without witness aspersions. Just cold, hard facts. Witnesses are not reliable. A fact. That's the only way...
Otherwise... I am not for a jury or judge-convicted death-sentence without an "absolute" irrefutable evidential admission in court. Just too many mistakes can be made. If anybody can pull the death-lever... on a possibly, later-proven innocent man... you are... I would say "not better"... but a different man than me. I could not do it and would not convict without "absolute" proof.
This will not make folks happy with me. Well... who cares... join the club.

Just kidding, but don't worry, Negan will get his.
I think the pendulum is swinging away from the death penalty, for the reasons you state.

That's neat. Thanks. A historical document, actually.
Why aren't pump action rifles more popular?

Yeah, they are cool guns but rarely seen for the reasons already listed, but there are always exceptions. Justin O Sheriff had an original in 32-20 that he could run very fast.
