...yep, that counts...

 

...now fer that practice...

I blew my smoky balls down range today at OKC. The practice is begining to pay off it was my first clean match ever.

 

 

...congrats on the clean match!!! ...especially under the circumstances!!!

Since this is Sedona and my first trip into the Osage Nation, just how far are the pistol and rifle targets ??

...revolver - 10 yards or so ...rifle - 50 yards or so ...since it ain't set up yet, I can't tell ya fer certain... ...but the intent is that the shooter will have to use their front sight and actually aim... ...plan on the times being just a touch longer... ...and fun being 2 to 3 times more... ...and the location is somethin' to behold...

 

 

PS... there are pics of the last years targets and such back on page 1 I believe... ...with a few on page 2 of this 'ere thread...

...looks like 12 days and a wakeup to me....

I've got all my balls well rounded and lubed up, stacked neatly in little plastic tubes. Got my capper full of #10 Remingtons. Got enough .44WCF shells loaded up for a small war. Got my brass 12 gauge shells loaded up, still got to get out to the land and make sure they'll work in my '87. Hate to find out they don't work on the first stage. :D No big deal if they don't, I've got plenty of 16 gauge shells loaded up too.

Now, all I've got to do (besides five more 12 hour night shifts, and three more 12 hour day shifts) is to get the covered wagon loaded up and ready to roll.

Waiting for this is kinda like waiting for Christmas.

I am glad your balls are well rounded and all lubed up. Pursuit will be a blast with many throwing there balls around.

8 more days and a wake up! ...but who's counting???

 

..if'n ya ain't got them thar signmeupfoms in to Burly Bill, then it be time to send 'em 'is way!!!!

 

...gonna be a great shoot!

The word is we have 86 brave shooters headed for the Osage The stage props are all but finished and the third annual Pursuit into the Osage Nation will be a good one. I understand there is still room for a few more shooters.

...there's always room for one more...

My brass 12 gauge shells will work in my '87, loading singly. They are a bit long to work through the action if I drop two in at a time. Probably a good thing, 'cause now I'll just drop one shell on the ground at a time instead of two. :D

 

Y'all say this match has never been shot clean huh! Expect that record to be broken next Saturday.* Gotta work tomorrow day shift, then off Monday to get the wagon ready, then Tuesday and Wednesday night. Anyone else gonna be there on Thursday?

 

 

 

 

*Not by me, but someone might pull it off.
