The day started out normal, picked up Shelleen and headed out to the Wewahootee Vigilance Committee’s monthly match. It was guess what, HOT, again, in Florida who would have thought it. Overcast for the first 4 stages and sun shining for the last 2. If you don’t know, there is nothing like leaving your long guns on the loading table in the Florida sun before you shoot the stage. Your guns get a little toasty. At least it didn’t rain on us.
The match started out normal, however it ended a litt...

We started driving Thursday morning for the Florida State CAS Championship. Was a perfect day for a drive too. We hit I-10 and I thought we were almost there… nope another 100 miles to go. we did make it there though and driving on to the range I gotta say was very nice. To see the CAS props and then the shooters, it don’t really matter where you go to shoot it always kinda feels like home. We signed in got our pack from even more familiar faces.
Thanks to Cas, Holler, Shamrock Sadie and the ...

This past Sunday I shot with the Roughshod Raiders in Gainesville Florida. And it was as one of the starting lines was “Hot and Sticky”. It rained about 90% of the way to the range then stopped long enough for us to get in 6 stages and then it started again. It’s a bit of a drive for me but riding with my shooting buddy Shelleen made the trip go by faster, we talk about what we have been doing for practice, who John Snow is and stuff like that.
We got to the range and set up our carts did our...

This week we are back in Florida, with the Ides Of March approaching I thought, why not find out what a hard working lady that's keeps the cowboy on point at The Ides has to say. The spotlight is pointed at "The Queen Of The Ides" Greta D. (another of my favorite people in this game!)
Where do you live? (what state or country) - Orlando, Florida

This month was less than stellar for the Moog. Madame Moog on the other hand had a great month. Scoring her very first clean match at The Hernando County Regulators monthly and making some of the best runs on stages since she started shooting. Not that Shoulda Dun Gun took it easy on her either, using her little red plate nemisis. Keep it up Madame Moog, I know your fan club will be cheering for ya.
There is something going on with my rifle, I cant seem to get 10 rounds out smoothly. At the ...

Hey Y’All, it’s been a while since I have blogged about shooting or Shelleen and I’s adventures. To be honest you haven’t missed much. Shelleen retired from working and is now a professional cowboy action shooter practicing 3 or 4 times a week with a couple matches thrown in there on the weekends. He is (was) steady whoopin me and he is such a modest winner. That is until first Sunday in February. I beat him at the Hernando County Regulators monthly match and finished 2nd overall. Bogus (bogug) ...

It sure has been a while since i blogged here. But moving forward on the site and app has sparked today's blog. Some of you may know that I attended EOT for the first time. Those that don't know End Of Trail is the Cowboy Action Shooting World Championship. Held this past June in Edgewood New Mexico. A couple firsts here I guess, first trip to NM too. Let me tell ya, we had fun. People had me worried about a few things like the altitude, seeing I'm a sea level person and the heat. Neither real...

I shot this past weekend at The Lake County Pistoleros, what a good match. The range is nice and shaded in the summer to try to beat the heat but it was still hot. I shot ok for me stages hovering around 22 or 23 seconds and 3 misses for the entire day, even though I think I had 3 on 1 stage but spotters only called 2. Sometimes it works out that way. a good bit of the shooters on my posse were shooting raw times of like 14 to 16 seconds, that made me feel a little slow. But, I played my game an...

This weeks spotlight is a nice polite young man from the frozen tundra or what everyone else call Canada. He's a fast shooter but he couldn't escape the ASN Bounty Hunt at EOT 2019. I personally, took him off the streets of Founders Ranch for a couple minutes before he made a break for it and shot a very fine match. Let's get to know Whistling Will.

Another month of shooting and I’m back to blog. With my match The Antelope Junction Rangers cancelling in august gave me a chance to get out and shoot at another club on that weekend. So, I packed up my toys and drove up to FT. White Florida to shoot with the Ft. White Cowboy Calvary. I like that range and wish I could shoot there more often, with most of the stages shaded and fans make beating the Florida heat a little easier. I shot ok for me finishing in the top 10 at least. I don’t know abou...
