Dingo and Sixgun Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Winter Range is the most well run match we have ever attended. This is our second time to Winter Range and it was even better than last time. Hats off to the Rough Riders and all the people that helped to put on this match. Other matches can learn from this one. Registration was easy and friendly,the warm up match was set up in posses with specific start times, the warm-up stages were in the book, no questions about what to do, the stages were very well written and fun to shoot, the shooter had options on most stages, the props out here are fantastic, the new saloon looks great, and the shoot-off was fun to watch and shoot, the awards ceremony kept moving, but gave everyone their moment to shine. Congratulations to Led Despenser and Two Sons for some great shooting and to all the winners. Dingo, Murphy and I will be back next year. We can't wait.

Dan Nabbit SASS # 5537 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 The mounted shooters across the street just want you all to know that the "Winter Range Board" not only puts on a tremendous action match but they coordinated with the Tombstone Ghost Riders in such a indispensable way! Their work, and expertise knows no equal. Madison, the mounted coordinator might even be riding next year. We cannot thank them enough. Truly an amazing group!........ :rolleyes: ............Dan Nabbit TGR Pres. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Tom Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 This was my first trip out but not my last. Can't say enough good things about the match. The props are second to no one, the stages fun and challenging just like a national match should be. Spent alot with the vendors and now can't wait to get it. Already planning on next year. Already miss the brisket. Black Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy Boots, # 20282 LTG-Regulator Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 What a shoot...my 12th WR and they just keep getting better. The Board listens to what shooters suggest in changes/additions and gettem' done. Don't know how this bunch of planners and workers can top themselves next year but hope I am there to see. Thanks to all who make it happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshal Stone, SASS #53366 Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 This was Tripod's and my 7Th and our grandsons 2ND trip to Winter Range. To say this is the best shoot in the country bar none is an understatement. We enjoy this shoot so much that the only way We'll miss it is if we are dead or in the hospital. Is it time to go to the next Winter Range yet????????????? YEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAA Marshal Stone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
