In early 2017, Chicken George and his 3 boys, D Stroyer (12), Gut C Gunman (10), and Skrap P (7), started trying out CAS with their good friend and seasoned CAS shooter, Will Two-Gun Adams. The boys’ first match was End of Trail, shooting with borrowed guns (45 colts and a 12 g). Later that year they acquired a set of guns and the boys shot the NM state match. Gut C Gunman won his category. Chicken George just supported them and didn’t shoot anything real until Winter Range the following year. Quick Chick joined in late 2018, shooting Bordertown. Sweet K Oss was 7 for her first match, Winter Range 2019. Lil Miss B Haven started with Four Corners Regional 2022, at 6 years old. They usually just shoot for Regional, National, World and Bordertown. They don’t compete on Sundays so they haven’t been able to shoot at their State championship until last year when they were allowed to shoot through. They all won their category there, except Gut C Gunman, who moved up to Cowboy for that match so Skrap P didn’t have to compete with him. As a family of seven they love being able to shoot together, but it definitely doesn’t come without a lot of challenges. They all share guns, mostly three shooters per gun(s). To save costs, they made their own shotgun belts, and they work together to cast and coat all their bullets. Then Skrap P sizes them, D Stroyer loads the pistol and rifle ammo, Gut C Gunman loads the shotgun shells, and Chicken George thoroughly checks everything. Just loading ammo for a major match takes several weeks. At this last EOT, they took over 8000 rounds for 3 Wild Bunch shooters, warm up, speed events and the main match. When Skrap P and Sweet K Oss made it to the Wild Bunch Top Gun Shoot-off, they actually had to borrow ammo because they didn’t have enough.
