Singin' Sue 71615 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 First off...Gateway, you should be doing nothing but "supervising" at this point!!! Now, can we haul the small trailer and dry camp? Shanley asked why he had off 17 of the 30 days of June....so I guess we are heading that way. Tell Colorodo kid's lovely bride I'll be wanting some of those cookies!!!! Ha!!! Hope you're well.

Singin' Sue 71615 Posted April 3, 2011 Share Posted April 3, 2011 I don't know if SCR is having a match but I hear there is a pretty big one down near albuquque NM, place called Founders Ranch. I think its name is End of ??? I am sure someone can help me out. Regards Gateway Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Sheriff Pack Wolf, SASS #31917 Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I would like to make them all,...but that's about $700.00 in fees, and a thousand or two in gas and expenses. I hope we have not detracted from each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we have not detracted from each other. Without a doubt June is a busy month just not enough hours in the day and days in the month, if some distraction has occured I'm sure it was not done on purpose, shoot at what you can make and have fun.

Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 If I can figure out the camera thingy, (I know I shouldn't be using technical stuff but...) I will post pics of the newly redone stage props from our shoot this weekend. (April 16 & 17) We at the Thunder Mountain Shootists are getting pretty excited about the State Shoot and our prep work. 1. All props were moved downrange about 25 feet to give more room for the posses to be in the berm area rather than the road. The new Lulu's will have a front porch even!! 2. Two of the props now have a 16 x 35 foot deck integrated into the store front, to ensure consistent footing. 3. The train now stretches side to side across a 30 foot bay to give more shooting positions. (should be finished in the next couple of weeks) sidenote the entire train was rebuilt on a deck so no transitions from ground to prop or vice versa 4. We should have the cantina finished by the end of the month (similar to Philthy Phils at WR) More to come!! Looking forward to seeing ya all June 9-12 Applications at Thundermountainshootists.com Regards Gateway Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Hill Dave #59561 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Howdy All, Directions to our range will be added to the website shortly. There are GPS coordinates that can be used, but if you Google the address it will be off by a mile or so. That's okay though, if you get lost just send up smoke signals. Contacts sre listed on the website so feel free to call anytime. We are putting together a great match and invite everyone who can to be there! Regards, CBG I am thinking about coming to this shoot as part of an early summer RV shooting tour. Is there room at the range for a 45 foot RV for dry camping? I need a lot of room on the road and overhead to get the RV around, and I have never been to this range. If there isn't much room, is there an RV park nearby that the club recommends?

If there isn't much room, is there an RV park nearby that the club recommends? we got you covered. plenty of room for big rv's, plenty of room to drive 'em around and as long as they aren't taller than 16 ft you can get in to the range. KOA is a straight shot down the road about 10 miles. you can dry camp with us for $25 and then go down to cortez for the revenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GW Ryder, SASS #50690 Posted April 21, 2011 Share Posted April 21, 2011 Dragon Hill Dave, I've dry camped on this range before. It's a large gravel parking lot with lots of room around the edges for campers. Just don't try to show up the morning shooting starts and park it, cuz all those 4-wheeled shooters vehicles make it tough to maneuver. This is a great bunch of cowfolk to spend time with. Oh yea, KK I forgot to tell you, I'll be there... Got this new fifth wheel and JoAnn tells me if I don't use it a lot this summer, she's sending it back!

Brother King, SASS #69031 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 You going to shoot CC? KK DHD! You won't like this shoot at all. The range sucks, the people suck, the weather sucks, the targets suck, your RV will never get out of the snow, don't believe what they're telling you! STAY HOME!

Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 Hey Kid, I am hoping to go the Co State Championships. Have you heard anything about accomodations and cost? Please let me know asap if you do! Hoe about anyoneout there in Grand Junction, any suggestions on were to stay and how much per night? Thanks, CBA there are several hotels on our website - thundermountainshootists.com There is also a link to the GJ Chamber of Commerce tourist info bureau. My phone # is on the bottom of the application if you need more details or a recommendation. At the range we have dry camping available on a "first come, first parked" basis. $25 flat fee for Wed night to Sunday. I took some pics over the weekend of the new props and some "typical" stages we shoot over here. In the rain no less so send a little love for my suffering for the greater good Web person says she will update the posse roster and the pics tonight. If it is not apparent in the photos the pistol targets are 16" size at 7-10 paces, rifle targets are 16" size at about 13-19 paces, SG are the "Handlebar Doc" versions at 8-11 paces. My pace is almost 3 feet so I would call them reasonable distance. The plate rack circles are 12" at 8-11 paces. Our next monthly match is May 14 and 15 if you are interested. Start time is 10AM, six stages each day. I hope to be over to Pawnee Station this Sat if you want to ask questions in person. See ya down the trail Gateway Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gateway Kid SASS# 70038 Life Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 DHD! You won't like this shoot at all. The range sucks, the people suck, the weather sucks, the targets suck, your RV will never get out of the snow, don't believe what they're telling you! STAY HOME! Now Brother King. You know that Charles Gatewood told me that you told him (though a second cousin who was related to your next door neighbors uncle by a previous marriage) that I was a DNGRGamer! I kinda like that cuz I am!! But everyone else over here is really nice, (they must be pretty tolerant to let me shoot here ), we put down extra gravel so you front rangers wouldn't need 4 wheel drive to get out of a perfectly good, dry, parking lot we have our medicine man chanting for temps in the high 70's to low 80's (with a chance of snow on the mesa at night to make things look pretty, just for you! ) we moved the targets back about 5 yards just to give you a challenge, even made new stands so the targets are at all kinds of different heights cuz we know how you hate straight lines This shoot is tailor made for you. What more could you want? See ya soon Gateway (who loves messing with ya) Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother King, SASS #69031 Posted April 26, 2011 Share Posted April 26, 2011 What more could you want? See ya soon Gateway (who loves messing with ya) Kid Well...

Brother King, SASS #69031 Posted April 27, 2011 Share Posted April 27, 2011 I told everyone on the Front Range (that's the eastern side of the Rockies for all you flatlanders) that their bullets won't know which direction to go since they only know west if they can see the mountains. So far it looks like only three Classic Cowboys so I should have a good chance at 4th unless that varmint from TX, Dragon Hill Dave doesn't chicken out.
