Hairtrigger Hayes

At our home club, The Texas Ten Horns, we haven’t made an official decision yet. Instead we are following the lead of the Governor. If the ban on gathering ends as it’s supposed to the day before our match, then we’ll likely shoot. If not, no match. If we do shoot we will shoot on the side of the range that is more open. Will will also align posse size not to exceed 10 per posse and will request our shooters spread out as much as possible. Also, only one shooter at loading table at a time. and no handshakes or hugs. We'll be replacing them with fist bumps, elbow bumps or Boot taps. Personally, I prefer to err on the side of caution. Many of our shooters are in the age groups most susceptible to this illness. At the end of the day, this is only a game we’re playing and if we have to skip a few matches just to keep one member from getting sick and possibly dying then I’m all for it.

I’ll throw in my 2 cents. The situation that created incident that led to this post was noticed by me. At the time I was not a spotter and I was not the TO. I went to the ULT and asked. Sure enough, extra round. ULT officer thought I was going to make the call and I assumed the UTL officer made the call. When it was discovered that no call was made the shooter went to the Match Director and requested the penalty be added, pretty honorable in my mind.

Congratulations Champ! It was a tough match to shoot clean. Aim and squeeze was definitely the right call! Way to go!!!

Way to go Grazer!!! Sorry I didn’t run into you while I was out there.

Thanks guys! It was one of the toughest matches I’ve ever shot. My hat is off to Sixgun Scwaby for making me earn it. He shot a great match!

Great job Bud. You’ve come a long way since I shot with you out there two years ago. Dilly-Dilly!!!

Matt, as always shooting with you is just fun! And if you tend to play up to the level you shoot with who better to shoot with the Matt Black!!! I've won buckles at both Regional and World shooting with you. Look forward to many more opportunities to shoot together. Congratulations young man!!!
