Chief Rick 442 Posted May 6, 2018 No - can see where a gunfighter would love it, though. Think it would require traditional shooter's to have to slow down, especially on the transition to the second pistol, to keep from earning a P. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

El Hombre Sin Nombre 1,832 Posted May 6, 2018 I like “Cheyenne Sweep” for this one. I’m going to start pushing it locally and see what happens. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jefro, SASS#69420 408 Posted May 6, 2018 We've done versions of it, paint odd targets black and even targets red, makes it easier to keep up with. "Cheyenne Sweep" it is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Griff 1,335 Posted May 6, 2018 Yes, Odds & Evens... very old, very tired, well used, gunfighter sweep. Fallen out of favor... especially with non-gunfighters. Not fun for anyone when used for the rifle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Buckaroo Bubba 841 Posted May 7, 2018 "Purdy Boy Sweep"... I like it...(Gunfighter).. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sergeant Duroc 50 Posted May 7, 2018 We call it the "Chatanooga Ladder Sweep". Memphis Raines (gunfighter) came up with it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Three Foot Johnson 2,215 Posted May 7, 2018 I came up with one several years ago shooting 2 three target Nevada sweeps on a 5 target spread. Maybe it already existed and I just reinvented it, I dunno. 1-3-5-3-1 then 2-3-4-3-2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Slow Mo Dern 343 Posted May 7, 2018 Howdy Cheyenne, Now you have 2 sweeps named after you! "How cool is that!" The number 13 appears 3 times in this sweep! I think I'll stay away from it! Mo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Houston CAS 35 Posted May 7, 2018 I wrote stages at THSS similar last October. 1-3-2-4-4 repeat. Also 2-4-1-3-3 repeat. I called it "odds and evens". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slow Mo Dern 343 Posted May 7, 2018 2 hours ago, Cheyenne Culpepper 32827 said: w'as tha tother one? Hey, CC, A long time ago I found a sweep pattern listed online as "The Culpepper sweep". It has 9 rounds on three targets: 1 - 2 - 2 - 3 - 3 - 3 - 2 - 2 - 1 . I naturally assumed you had invented this sweep. We've been using it for years. We shoot this sweep on 3 targets and the tenth round usually goes on a bonus target or a target off by itself. It's easy to remember and also works well if a 9 round sweep is ever needed.

Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129 1,113 Posted May 8, 2018 Yes I have shot that sweep at a Couple of Clubs .. I like the "Ginger Rodgers" Sweep, 4 targets starting at either end , 4 on the first , 3 on the second , 2 on the third , one on target 4.... And then sometimes we sweep the other row of targets , from the other end , 1 on target 1 , 2 on the second, 3 on the third and 4 on the last target,,, For old Larry... We often give you a choice of which sweep you start on "Ginger" up close or Larry boy with da rifle ... Jabez Cowboy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Also do a 6-target progressive using revolvers & rifle that requires a reload. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
