Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Hello the fire: Well, for years I have wanted to shoot with my Wire friends, you know, the folks you've talked with for years, but have never met, because you've only known them thru the Wire. 2020 is the year I hope to realize that dream. We've gotta new touring van, and plan to put some miles on it this year. Sending in the applications tomorrow for Smoke in the Woods(April) & Spring Roundup(May). Smoke in the Woods is a Shoot I used to attend every year, but I have gotten out of the habit these last few years, It's a great opportunity to re-connect with old friends and meet new ones from the (mostly) Ohio, Indiana, & Kentucky regions. Spring Roundup will be a new one for me. I'm going there mostly to meet up with, and shoot with Tyrel Cody, a long-time wire-friend & trading pardner. I expect I will also see other old friends too & again, put some faces to some of the names I known only thru the Wire. In June, I plan on Prince of the Pistoleers in Kansas. Again, going to meet up with, and shoot with J-Bar -- a special treat. And, there's a lot of cowboys I'm looking forward to finally meeting, so maybe I should say J-BaR & Friends! My son is moving from Lake Tahoe back to Sacramento, and we're planning on spending much of December there, so it will be fun to (hopefully) shoot with Allie Mo & some other NorCal friends. Hopefully a trip to the Bay Area to see some old High School friends and maybe shoot with Springfield Slim or some other folks I know only through the Wire. And, perhaps a trip to SoCal & a shoot with the elusive & mystical Texas Lizard, or to San Diego (Lived there for 30 years) & a shoot with Yul Lose, both of whom are old-time wire-friends and trading pards. Timing, as they say. is everything, but maybe this year, everything will fall into place. Anyways, folks are always eternally optimistic during the Hot Stove League months -- Hopefully most of it will become a reality this Spring, Summer, & Fall! --Sootlord Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Saint Eagle, SASS # 64903 Posted January 12, 2020 Share Posted January 12, 2020 Dawg, if you're free in October come on down and shoot the Tennessee State with us, then 2 weeks later shoot the Southeast regional in North Alabama.

Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted January 13, 2020 Author Share Posted January 13, 2020 Thanks MGM. Part of the plan is Sanduskly on second Saturdays, followed by Piqua on second Sundays. Should be able to do some of that this year, so hope to shoot with you & HB more this year! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Man Graybeard Posted January 13, 2020 Share Posted January 13, 2020 Hey Dawg...why don’t you come out to the Iowa State championship too. Classic Cowboy showdown here this year also.. You might meet some good people and have a great time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairie Dawg, SASS #50329 Posted January 13, 2020 Author Share Posted January 13, 2020 Thanks for the invite, but The Boss filled up that weekend up months ago. And, even if she hadn't, that's the weekend of the Ohio State Championships, my 2nd favorite shoot of each year! (In case yer wondering, High Noon at Tusco is my #1) But I'll make it out to a shoot in Iowa soon, maybe not until next year, but I'll make it. Got lotsa Wire-friends there! --Dawg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
