Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 The Winter Range main matches (Cowboy and Wild Bunch) are full. BUT, you can still get into the BP night shoot!!! It is on Thursday night on Practical Bay "C" (where stages 7 & 8 are located). Starts around 7:00 p.m. +/- whenever we want to begin and ends +/- whenever we decide to quit. There are a few basic rules. First, you must be prepared to have fun. Second, you must be present to shoot. If you are not present you can't shoot. Third, have fun. Fourth, since it is a BP night shoot, you should be prepared to shoot some BP. Fifth, and the over riding rule, be safe. Sixth, have fun!!!!!!! The past two years we have had a 100% clean match rate! This is phenomenal and partially due to the fact that if you can't see a miss, it's a HIT. After about ten shooters if there is no wind, generally no one can see anything. We have never had a "P". Partially due to the same reason there are no misses. So, load up some ammo, come out and shoot or stop by to spectate and be dazzled by the pyrotechnics. Since there is no actual sign-up sheet, we try to do an informal role call right here on the wire. How many are coming? 1. Me, LEP. 2. Dan Diamond

Shanley Shooter Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 You can count Singin Sue and I in!!!! Shanley Shooter
Garrison Joe, SASS #60708 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Most likely (for proof of last year's clean match, see avatar) GJ
Dan Diamond, SASS #61820L Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 I would have thought there would have been more "sign ups" by now!!! Come one come all to the best BP shoot ever AND, of course, to the BEST CAS shoot ever!!!
Howdy Doody Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Larceny Dammit, if I have it all correct and sometimes I don't, I want to get it all straight. I have signed up for plainsman and for side matches. Do I need to do any other signing up to shoot your BP night shoot or am I good to go? Hey pard, I am starting to get anxious now. Order me up some good weather and you won't be able to wipe my silly grin off with a GI brush.
Guest Cactus Cris SASS#2790 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 AND--for those that feel the need to clean after--the Cart Corral will be open late. I have a cleaning area set up in the corral just for BP shooters during the match. Come on over and clean your toys or just observe-either way you will get an earfull of light hearted banter and tall tales.
Mad Dog Jack, SASS #77862 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Well, if KC Colt, No Buk Chuck AND Howdy Doody are in then I'm in too, dammit.
Dick Dastardly SASS #45219 Posted January 28, 2011 Posted January 28, 2011 Ever notice how there are no night contests for the piff-ting shooters. What, a spark maybe, then nothing. Nope, only the Holy Black brings the true message of the "Old West" with flames and smoke. Welcome to the Darkside. Dick
Madd Mike #8595 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 wow sure wish I waz a go-iin this year but I am doing FCGF @ EOT to make up fer it
Jailhouse Jim, SASS #13104 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Add me and Jacked Up Dammit. If he don't have some bullets, I'll bring extra.
Baddog Nobiscuit #46532 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Check my avatar, I'll be there!! Heh. Baddog N.
Kiowa Kid, SASS #69870L Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Howdy, Kiowa Kid and Painted filly will be there makin noise and smoke. KK

Professor Cubby Bear, SASS #29521 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Can I play too? Please, mister Side Match Director, I want to make flames in the night.....
Larsen E. Pettifogger, SASS #32933 Posted January 29, 2011 Author Posted January 29, 2011 Can I play too? Please, mister Side Match Director, I want to make flames in the night..... Wish granted. Bring your fire sticks and have fun.
Jailhouse Jim, SASS #13104 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Boy oh boy, the Professor is coming to Winter Range with night shootin' on his mind. We are certainly gonna have some fun that night.
M.T. Stetson, SASS #67410 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 My inability to hit targets is the stuff legends are made of, but I wouldn't miss this for the world. Count me in Larsen! Regards, M.T.
Howdy Doody Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Alright then, it is a happening. Prof Cubby Bear and Jailhouse Jim, dueling 10 gauges. Flames? There should be a who's is longest contest. I'll avail myself of Cactus Cris kind offer to clean my guns afterward. Hold on C.C. I am just funnin' and getting in the mood for a really good time at your 20th anniversary shoot.
Hondo Dan, SASS #45041 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 We'll be there !!!!!! Hondo Dan and Miss Elaineous
Wild Bull SASS#21850 Life Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Howdy Pards, Any Blackpowder Night Shoot needs at least one genuine Swedish squarehead in it - so deal me in... Best Regards Wild Bull Sweden Territory
Lou Graham, # 26112 Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Miz Lou will be there with both guns blazin' at the same time. Larsen, is the Gatling Gun going to be there again this year? You pards coming for the first time -- Don't forget your flashlights, comes in handy getting around the range after dark. After-shoot gun cleaning party at Cactus Cris's Corral is fun, too.
