  1. Looking at the radar the range is in the middle of a big snow cell this morning.
  2. DAGNABBIT ALL TO SNOT! Short version, range is a muddy snowy mess and this weekends matches are cancelled. Long version from Ted follows -- Howdy Pards, well as fate would have it, I have had a good friend and partner check out the Great Guns, Pawnee Station range today. And to my dismay the range is still covered in snow, everywhere. There is a healthy layer of snow on all bays, and the entrance to the range is under water. There is also thick gooey mud from the last two days of thaw under the snow. So its with a heavy heart that once again The Saturday (1-21-17) CAS match and Sunday (1-22-17) Wild Bunch match are both cancelled. Hang in there folks, we'll get to shoot one of these days. TriggerHappy Ted I could handle the snow, I could handle the cold, but the mud, well mud and me don't mix. I knew I should have hibernated.
  3. Depends on what machine each is using. I'm happy to help out a pard when the need arises, but I don't know that I'd want a formal agreement or ongoing commitment.
  4. I remember jumping off the roof of the garage just for fun, then climb up and do it again. My left knee is reminding it's about time for another shot, don't know how much longer the shots are gonna be enough. Best of luck with your rehab.
  5. They are really nice looking, but for me I reckon I'd just go normal full SS. But then again I am boring.
  6. Facebook vids don't embed in my experience. I tried the link and am logged in to facebook but it told me it wasn't available. Facebook pictures on the other hand seem to work well, click on the picture in the feed to open it up, then mouse over the picture and right click and choose copy image location or something like that. Then you can paste that URL into a insert image dialog here.
  7. Well, best I could say is to have them google 'recover go pro storage' or some such and see what they can find that matches the problem they got. Seem to be several free ware tools that claim to be able to recover files and such. Best of luck,
  8. let me cypher on it a bit, tain't never messed with none of them fancy go pro things afore. I use other brands.
  9. Can't argue with Lefty as an example of great shooting, I'm gonna have to study those vids my own self. I don't know that I'd classify myself as a solid shooter, but I have improved my stage times by studying and fine tuning my transitions. As I'm most often the guy behind the camera, rather than in front of it, I don't have any vids to share with you. Most vids of me shooting are hat cam and difficult to see transitions. I have a bunch of thoughts that may or may not help her, but I don't know that it makes sense to type them up at the moment. I've long planned on doing a video on transitions but have yet to get it done. Most often when I'm at the range I'm busy with the match, or tired out from the match and haven't gotten it done. If I get some time over the next couple of weeks I'll try to throw some folding tables up in the garage and get some footage. If you haven't seen it yet, feel free to PM and ask me about it in a week or two just to keep me on task.
  10. Here I am with my state champion bar fly award
  11. Angus, yes, yes we were.
  12. I'd like to have one with more normal barrels, the long one just isn't my cup of tea. But hey, even if they don't sell a whole bunch it got folks looking at, and talking about their products.
  13. Kid - this comes up fairly often. I've only shot at one club that allows it. And the only shooters who do it are established cowboy shooters who are wanting something different that day. The game is cowboy action shooting, and it's played with two single action revolvers. Folks that are interested and go to a match are often loaned guns to give it a try. Some enjoy it and get bit by the bug and stick around. For some it isn't their cup of tea, which is fine. I am of the opinion that changing the game 'in hopes of attracting new shooters' would be changing the whole reason I fell in love with the game. Opinions vary. Lastly, local clubs for monthly matches are free to offer whatever oddball categories they want. But in a sport that is competitive the established rules need to be followed whenever there is a title on the line. Again, just my opinion.
  14. I opened your link, and then right clicked on the picture and chose copy image URL and then pasted that into the image dialog here.
  15. DAGNABBIT ALL TO SNOT! I knew I should have hibernated. This just in from TriggerHappy Ted Howdy all, I know you all have cabin fever already, but Saturdays forecast for Great Guns is 18 degrees at 9am and a high of 32 degrees with a 7mph wind. Even tho it might be dry, its to cold for this old cowboy to hobble out there with my hotrod walker to watch you all shiver in yer boots. So I've cancelled Saturday's match. Stay warm, stay healthy. And I'll see ya on the trail somewhere. TriggerHappy Ted
  16. I read on facebook that all went well and he was on track to go home as scheduled.
  17. I sent in my entry and booked a motel for Land Run.
  18. Just curious, what would be a benefit to you to have them classified at C and R?
  19. Ted whoops up on me as it is, with a bionic knee he'll really be off to the races. Best of luck to Ted, Misty, and the nurses.
