Texas Maverick Posted August 15 Share Posted August 15 (edited) I just got my receipt from my EOT entry so I am heading that way in Feb 2025. I will be staying at the CTC at Ben Avery starting Feb 10 thru Mar 5. I am trying to put together a list of matches prior to EOT so I can decide what else I might want to shoot. So far I have: ACSA have a two day match at BA around Feb 15 and 16 2025. Their website: https://acsainc.com Cowtown (9 miles from BA) have a two day match on Feb 22 and 23 2025. Applications are available at: https://ccsa-az.com Tombstone (211 miles from BA) have a two day match on Feb 21 and 22 2025. There are also one day matches in Tombstone on Sunday, Feb 2nd and Saturday, Feb 15th.

Sounds like a great match but I will have my wife and daughter with me so it is a 3 input decision and Fire and Ice won out so they can stay at the campground and not have to sit in a car for the 400 mile round trip ride.

Rattlesnake Slim Posted August 18 Share Posted August 18 Tumbleweeds is held at the Tombstone Livery, same range as the legendary Bordertown. They have both full hookup and dry camping onsite.

Thanks, I did talk with Doug yesterday and he is holding us a spot. We have decided to take a break from the Ben Avery area since we are going to be there from 2/10 to 3/5. We are looking forward to seeing a new area and plan on spending 4 or 5 days down there. I did spend some time in the Tucson/Nogales area many years ago Mearns Quail hunting. Just need some ideas on what else there is down there besides the match so my wife and daughter don't get bored with me. LOL TM 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Nose Kate's before and after going to Gunfighter Museum & Hall of Fame and Bird Cage is a must. Sassy wants to make Haunted Tour but I keep putting that off. Do plan on making Mine tour this year and maybe Gunfighter Museum for the third time. There are some great Movie Set Ranches near Tombstone also, as well as much, much more. Like Crystal Palace, Four Deuces, OK Cafe, Longhorn Steakhouse, and The Oriental. About anything along Allen Street. Even Doc Holliday's, but it might get a little rough (if not closed yet). Although Tombstone is a big tourist spot we have found some very nice and friendly local folks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good likeness for sure, except a little to slim. I would have been in there if you guys had not warned me that trouble was getting frequent there. Good cold beer but certainly much more a "dive" than others mentioned. We got a kick out of a picture they had on the wall of Texas game warden we knew (Bennie was on Lone Star Law TV series for years). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My fault, I gave Texas Maverick the wrong dates based on an educated guess. No problem. We had to change our plans and now will be going straight to Tombstone (Tumbleweeds Shoot Out) and then on up to Ben Avery. My wife and daughter decided to just fly up for their 1/2 marathon in Sedona on Feb 1 instead of us going up on Jan 29 and spending two weeks sitting around waiting on the matches.
