What if....

[Rye Miles #13621]

If CAS stopped tomorrow what would ya substitute with? I guess I'd do the IDPA thing and I always did like trap and skeet. It sure would be a boring world without cowboy shooting' !!!

Hi Rye,

 

I think we'd keep going at the local level. We have a good local Website as do many other areas. Many clubs are also on Facebook. If the loss of a sanctioning body was really missed, I'd check out W3G (our local club is no longer going) or the OWSS.

 

Regards,

When I found CAS I was looking for a shooting sport to enjoy, I actually was slated to go to an IDPA match that fateful Saturday but I overslept so I visited a CAS match instead at a closer range. The rest is history. Still haven't shot a sanctioned IDPA match, they're on the same Saturdays as my cowboy matches. Did shoot a similar 'defensive pistol' match, it didn't grab me like cowboy.

 

I imagine my local clubs would still play cowboy no matter what the world around us did, call it a western stubbornness.

 

But just for the sake of conversation, I reckon I'd have a go at IDPA and Ruger Rimfire.

[Prof. Fuller Bullspit]

I would have room in my gun safe and my closet.

 

I would be less poor in money.

 

I would be more poor in friends.

 

I don't know that I would substitute anything for CAS.

What the Professor says...

[DocWard]

If there were no CAS anywhere, I would probably migrate back to shooting amateur trap. I'm an ATA life member, although I haven't shot a registered shoot in a number of years.

[Curley Fryes]

Well, I am part of an old west reenactor group. I guess I'd be doing more reenacting.

[Cliff Hanger #3720LR]

I would go back to shooting cans and paper plates in the canyon near by with my western guns..

 

That's where JD Walker and Rebel Bell found me in the early 90s.

 

I am not sure whether to thank JD Walker or hold against him for bringing me in to cas.

[Gunner Gatlin, SASS 10274L]

If CAS didn't exist - Would probably get back into ATV GNCC at some level and improve my golf game

 

as far as shooting I would get back into rendez-vous and maybe check out BPCR.

Fishin? Needlepoint? Politics?

Break out the 41 mags and do high power pistols again and do a lot of fishing.

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172]

F I S H I N G!

[Hacker, SASS #55963]

A new .org would be formed not a .com. It would take time. We would have a more completely integrated rule book. But CAS would continue.

Growing the state, regionals and nationals would be time consuming.

A new name would be necessary as well to avoid WB entanglements.

 

This all assumes that CAS stopped as related to WB SASS issues not some government problems.

[Marshal Dan Troop 70448]

If CAS was to end, I would keep my Colt and 92. Sell everything else and purchase more fully-auto weapons of WW2, and add to my USAAF and Luftwaffe collection. MT

[Birdgun Quail, SASS #63663]

I think I'd just have to comtemplate the t-shirt lint in my navel.

[Tom Foolery U.S.M. #2348]

Fishin? Needlepoint? Politics?

 

 

 

The first and the last are both liars

 

 

I'd be doing more fly fishing

[Blackwater 53393]

It would just mean more miles on my ol' Harley and some poor cop a bunch of more grey hair from trying to discourage my exploits into the realm of outlaw speed runs!!

 

 

Thanks to Cowboy Action Shooting the highways are a calmer more harmonious place.

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172]

You could create the BAPTIST SHOOTING SOCIETY.

 

Dedicated to shooting old Baptist.

[Captain Woodrow Cahill, SASS # 54363]

That three-gun tactical shooting looks like it'd be fun.

Not sure what it's really called, but it looks a lot like CAS only with more modern weapons.

 

Wonder if there's any of it in Ohio ... ?

[Krazy Kajun]

Hmmm...several ways to go on that one BMC.

 

Does it mean you'd be shooting Baptists for competition? If so you need to move down south a mite so's you'd have more targets. Just know that we Baptists shoot back

BSS.....could mean Bull $h*t Society....which in my case would be the same organization of folks as SASS in our neck of the woods.

Or is there a separate Baptist category....kinda like left handed frontier cartridge squaw gripping shootist

Navel? Isn't that were you start peeling an orange? MT

What are the requirements for that one, KK?

[Grizzly Dave]

KK, you got something against left handers??

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172]

KK, you got something against left handers??

 

 

Something about the brain/motor nerve/thingy.

I deal cards with my left hand but everything else with my right. I guess I am a double dealing SOB

(Sweet Old Buzzard)

[Grizzly Dave]

I am left handed but can do most things other than write about equally well with my right hand. For instance I use either hand on the mouse just as well. At home, where I share with right handers I use it right handed, at work it's left handed partly because that's where it works best on my desk.

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172]

No wonder I can't hit crap. I am shooting with my right hand and it confuses my sharp eagle eye.

[Sergeant Smokepole #29248L]

I could live without an organized sport as I will enjoy shooting whatever I have in whatever manner I have.

 

I will not under any circumstances lose contact with my friends and loved ones that I have been blessed to have not only made acquaintance with, but been invited as a member of their families and they to mine.

 

Some things are just non negotiable....

[Marshal Rusty Bore SASS#22739]

I'd have to contemplate suicide!

I'm such a coward!!!!! IPSC or PPC.

[Oconee Kid]

I suppose we would be able to change some of the rules. Like allowing for pistol only matches so the cost wouldn't be as much.

[Calamity Kris]

Uno would probably find some other shooting sport to get into like Action Pistol. I would probably have to find a knitting circle or sewing guild to join so I could have someone to talk to...... Come to think of it, I might actually have time to sew.......

[Calico Mary]

Kris, if we lived closer together you'd be more than welcome to get together with me and a few ladies I know who sew, we could all have a great ole time! I might actually get a couple of these half finished quilts I have laying around done

I'm in!

[Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172]

Bob, you would most likely stitch your fingers together.

 

Best leave the important stuff to the ladies.
