Wrangler Jones, SASS # 64178 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Then there's the "Duck & Cover" sweep. Last time I seen it, a new shooter got a cartridge misfeed on his '97, and while trying to shake it out, pointed the muzzle back over his head. You never seen cowboys scramble so fast!

Cowboy Junky Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 You know it’s funny you bring that up.......we had a shooter start a sweep on target 2 of 5 and wrapped it around and finished on 1 (2,3,4,5,1). The stage instructions said sweep the targets for 5 shots. I can't remember what the call was but it brought up a lot of discussion. Obviously it could have been cured by stating "starting on any target" or "starting on either end" BUT it didn't.....it just said sweep the targets for 5 shots.
