Widder, SASS #59054 Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Black Gold ain't just a match.....its an Event, a Family reunion of sorts. There ain't enough ink in my putter to type out all the good stuff during this past weekend. OFFICIALLY: nothing happened. I saw nothing....NOTHING! UnOfficially, Congratulations to SIDEKICK for Overall. Posse 7, with wagon master Titus, was exceptional. Just to many friends and happenings to gather them all in. Thanks to Billy The Avenger and Missouri Lefty for making the 'Soft Stroke' Henry video. And the new Poster Boy for Gunfighters looks exactly like Vaquero Jake. WOW, did he ever burn em down shooting GF. And hanging out with Korupt Karl was icing on the cake. More thoughts later. ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Korupt Karl Posted July 17, 2016 Share Posted July 17, 2016 Well said Widder; Joe, Whiskey, Bo, Iron, Honey, Tennessee and all did a hell of a job. I felt very welcome and enjoyed the hospitality. Posse 7 was outstanding and I got to watch some of the top shooters in this sport....burn it down. Lots of laughs, got to meet some new folks and see some ole ones that I've missed. I will go back and bring a bunch of folk with me. Thanks and see ya soon. PS Thanks to Tom for helping raise money for the fight against cancer and for not shooting me....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 MAN OH MAN!!! We had a BLAST!!! Schoolmarm and I consider Ponderosa Pines to be our Cowboy Home!! I got to play all week! Some of it may have been productive and maybe even have looked like W*&K, but I had me some fun doin' it!! I got to meet some new friends, reacquaint myself with some old friends, and entertain the whole bunch!! I still only get credit for bringing Schoolmarm. Seems I'm only worth while as a means to get her to the match!!! The guys in the band wish to thank all of you for making them once again feel very welcome and at home. More of them seem to think that the party just gets better every year!! They talk about this show all year long!!! So thank you all for coming to the party!! Thank you to the family of Joe and Miss Bo and Miss Rose and Daddy Boots!!!! Like Iron Maiden says, the list of those to thank is long and illustrious!! SEE YA' NEXT YEAR!!!
