Outlaw Exterminator, SASS#20135L Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 This past weekend just under 300 cowboys and cowgirls shot the SASS Midwest Regional Match "Gunsmoke" outside of Morristown, Minnesota at the great Cedar Valley Vigilantes range. This is a 12 stage range built on the property of Ahlmans Gun Store. The Midwest Regional represents eight states but shooters came from all over the country because of the reputation of this shoot. The week starts on Wednesday with classes dealing with Cowboy Shooting and the main match is shot Friday and Saturday. The stages are clear to understand and fast. On Thursday I thought we would be shooting from arks but the main shoot days had beautiful fall (dry) weather. The shoot allowed the meeting of old friends and the making of new ones. The stages were clean and fast. The vendor row was well supplied with dealers in all things needed to shoot a SASS match. The three nights of food was second to none at any match. Drifters award ceremony was, as in past years fun, and had great award buckles and raffle items of guns, a Dillon 650 and Rugged Gear cart,a complete men and women dress outfits as well as many vendor gifts. Drifter, KC and Songbird, Flyin Shootist and his family of workers, Damn Yankee, the entire Vigilante Board and all of the other friends that help put this shoot on need to be thanked for their weeks of hard work. You all need to consider a trip to this shoot next September...you will not be sorry. Lady Outlaw and Outlaw Exterminator Quote

Lefty Shotlow Posted January 10, 2017 Posted January 10, 2017 Had a great time at 2014, 2015, 2016 Gunsmoke events. What are the dates for 2017? I assume 9/13-9/17? Quote

evil dogooder Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 It's a great shoot you don't want to miss! Quote
Dantankerous Posted January 12, 2017 Posted January 12, 2017 (edited) Marshal Chance, That Google Calendar link is indicating Gunsmoke '16. I'll presume it encompasses the third weekend of September 2017 though. Edited January 12, 2017 by Dantankerous Quote
