Would you shoot this match?

[Pedernales Drifter 7]

Tell me when and where!

[Dragon Hill Dave #59561 68]

Of course! Only depends on the date and the location.

[Sedalia Dave 8,740]

When and Where. Have the clothes and all the firearms except the derringer and I am pretty sure I can borrow one of those on short notice.

I can even shoot a different set of pistols each stage. 

 

I can even bring along my wife dressed to the nines in her finest cowgirl outfits for support.

[Totes Magoats 238]

Folks might want to start working on that Tom Selleck mustache. 

[Ol Number4 92]

Will they have a BP category??

 

When  and where?

 

Ol'  #4

[Injun Ryder, SASS #36201L 1,069]

Love to.

 

But I would be a bit unconventional with Schofields and a Win 1887. The rifle could vary: Spencer, Henry, Win Musket (original), Win 1873, Marlin or Burgess.

 

Also have the derringer, pocket pistol and single shot rifle caliber.

[Marshal Chance Morgun 877]

Bazinga?

[Red River Rudy, SASS #8490 LIFE 51]

I will be there, just tell me when and where.  I would really like to shoot all different styles.  I hope they put outlaw in there!

 

[Texas Jack Daniels 219]

OK I am serious.  This is not a "bazinga".  So I will start looking for sponsors and a place for this match.  When and where is also still TBD.  For all I knew I was going to get a lot of "Hell no" replies.  It is a chicken and the egg problem.  Sponsors want TV coverage and some sort of guarantee there will be shooters.  Shooters want some sort of guarantee there will be awards.  

The number of stages per day is limited by the number of shooters and the number of shooting bays.  I will start working on logistics and such.  I will also draw up a serious proposal and engage the Wild Bunch to gauge their interest.  I will set up a web site by the end of the month to communicate more details and get feedback.

 

Vendors will be free too.  BTW, no side matches, no costume contests.

[largo casey #19191 130]

I'm all in for it.Let me KNOW.

And please restrict the match to current SASS recognised categories.

 

Thanks TJD!!

And if there's a chance for tent camping, that would be most welcome!

 

Good idea Texas Jack D - you may end up with more folks than you bargained for!

 

Keep your powder dry,

Wild Ben

 

[StirrupTrouble 453]

Sounds like an absolute hoot!!!!

[Marshal Stone, SASS #53366 60]

Count me in depending on when and where.

Would also need to borrow rifle caliber rifles and ammo.

 

Marshal Stone

[oak creek martin 98]

Count me in. I bet we could talk the Bridgsdale County shootist into using there range. Colorado is pretty central and would make it easy for everyone to get there. 

Just sayin!

I don't care about the awards. I just want to shoot what sounds like a really fun match.

[Lone Rider, SASS# 73063 174]

Since I am now retired... Sounds like fun.

Really?

[oak creek martin 98]

 Yes it’s exactly 346 miles from Lebanon Kansas which is the true geographical center point of the lower 48 states in the United States. 

Or really -we might be able to shoot it at that range?

Or Really? As in how on God's green Earth is Colorado centrally located?

[Phantom, SASS #54973 4,226]

Oh for God's sake, just state if you're interested and leave it at that...TJD is quite capable on figuring out the rest.

 

Fricken Wire...

 

[Burly Bill Brocius 0]

Yep

[oak creek martin 98]

 My bad everyone. Just trying to have a little fun on the wire. But seriously we would love to have everybody come to Colorado at least once in their life. Some of us are just lucky enough to get to live here!   And yes again count me in can’t wait sounds like a lot of fun !

[Assassin 1,243]

Regardless of the location, it won't be good for everyone. The concept sounds like a good time, I'm all for innovation and growing SASS. Especially, if there is some good press and video. 

 

[H. K. Uriah, SASS #74619 812]

I still wanna know what the costume requirements are.   I've never heard of "Quigley" as a type of costume category.   Does this mean we have to dress like someone in the movie, or it is some other thing?

It means look like you'd fit in on the movie...

 

If you have a specific question, PM TJD...

 

he's trying measure whether this match would be well received and attended even without a bunch of detail...yes or no!

 

And relax, if you say yes your not committing... And if you say no, and later want to participate, I'm sure you'd be able to.

 

Phantom

[Texas Jack Daniels 219]

Costume requirements were really dress the part. Wranglers, a button down shirt, hat, and boots aren't enough. We will work on more details as we go along. Think "classic cowboy".

[Flinthills Dawg 60]

Now that's  sounds like a blast!!  I'm in!!!

[LawMan Mark, SASS #57095L 1,533]

Count me in, pending the details.  Expect lots of smoke, flame and boom.  

[Tyrel Cody 4,525]

Yes

[Jabez Cowboy,SASS # 50129 1,039]

I would Love to ...

I'm From Canada ,,,,,,,,,,

[Tex Boden, SASS#19427 L 11]

Absolutely intrested!

 

[Bulldog Brown 148]

You bet I'm in, just let us know where and when. Retirement is great. Bulldog Brown

[Pinewood Kid, SASS#61865 0]

Just point the way. 

[T-Bone SASS #36388 125]

Jack , count me in. Classic Cowboy dress and lots of targets.... Great idea.
