Alright Marie Laveau and myself are both signed up for CC and CG. We both want to shoot Old school but no place to check that on the entry form. Let me know if I need to call Howlin wolf or if you are in charge of that. Can’t wait, see ya in June. 

Nope your good, I am keeping track of that.  I will put you folks on the list.  Looking forward to seeing you two again.

FYI, chatting with Colonel Lou, looks like he'll be joining us also, so you can add him to the list for classic.  He said he's likely to be shooting smokeless.

 

 

I will get them added, thanks!

So what kind of CC categories would you folks like to see at the 2023 Showdown?

 

- Buckle for Top Classic (Sponsored)

- Ol Skool Buckle (Sponsored)

- 1860 Henry CC Challenge buckle?

- Black Powder CC Buckle?

- Senior CC Buckle?

- Classic Cowgirl Buckle?

- Top five conchos?

 

Remember the Showdown awards have been Classic Cowboy Sponsored since the beginning... The host clubs do not help with these awards.  The generosity of many fine classics have helped turn this event into a great success!

 

If anyone would like to help or sponsor an award... Please holler at me.  We can talk about getting it done.   

 

 

Thanks!

 

M.A.T.

Howdy Major. Since the Classic categories have a costuming requirement I would like to see awards at the Showdown for best costume cowboy & cowgirl.

Actually you have been missing out on that little award Chili.  So the past two years we have given out a custom made Wild Rag Slide for the Classic Cowboy that just plain 'Looks The Part'.  We call it the Classic Cowboy Swagger Award.

 

That award bounces back and forth from The Classic Cowboy Showdown and Throwdown. With it being given away at the Throwdown this year.

 

You can see what it looks like with this artwork from Molly's

Howdy all you Classics!

 

Well I have had a tremendous amount of support this year for award at The 2023 Classic Cowboy Showdown!  I want to thank everyone of you that have graciously helped out with this, you all are the best and are the reason I love this category!  

 

Thanks to the efforts of fellow classics we now have awards for the following:

 

Classic Cowboy (Buckle)

(4)Classic Cowboy "Top 5" (Conchos)

Senior Classic Cowboy (Buckle)

Black Powder Classic Cowboy (Buckle)

Ol Skool Classic Cowboy (Buckle)

Classic Cowgirl (Buckle)

 

Remember these awards and categories are sponsored by fellow Classics for the Showdown, they may differ from what the host club has offered.  Just sign up as classic on entry forum... But contact me with any specific Classic Category you are shooting for.   SENIOR... OL SKOOL...BLACK POWDER...ect. 

 

I will keep a list of who is shooting what for the Showdown, so make sure to contact me.  

 

Thanks all and look forward to seeing you all in June!

Major does a great job of ram-rodding this but it's ALL the Classic Cowboys shooting together, making fun of gunfighters etc, that make this event a ton of fun!

 

If'n you've been wanting to attend one of these CC Showdowns, this year's match will be in Texas and I'm betting the best yet!

Hope you recover OK from your stroke.  I had a mini-stroke almost 2 years ago now.  Was pretty scary.
