Chief Rick Posted May 6, 2018 Share 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.

El Hombre Sin Nombre Posted May 6, 2018 Share Posted May 6, 2018 I like “Cheyenne Sweep” for this one. I’m going to start pushing it locally and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jefro, SASS#69420 Posted May 6, 2018 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Griff Posted May 6, 2018 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckaroo Bubba Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 "Purdy Boy Sweep"... I like it...(Gunfighter).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Duroc Posted May 7, 2018 Share Posted May 7, 2018 We call it the "Chatanooga Ladder Sweep". Memphis Raines (gunfighter) came up with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Three Foot Johnson Posted May 7, 2018 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slow Mo Dern Posted May 7, 2018 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Houston CAS Posted May 7, 2018 Share 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". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129 Posted May 8, 2018 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also do a 6-target progressive using revolvers & rifle that requires a reload. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
