Welcome to the Home of the Cavalier Cowboys

By /

The Cavalier Cowboys are a Cowboy Action Shooting Club based near Montpelier, Virginia. We are associated with the Cavalier Rifle & Pistol Club which is where we hold our matches. We shoot on the 1st Sunday and 2nd Wednesday of every month, with some exceptions. The Cavalier Cowboys is a SASS (Single Action Shooting Society) Affiliated Club, we are governed by and operate our matches under all SASS Rules.

You DO NOT have to be a member of either Cavalier Rifle & Pistol Club or SASS to shoot with us, everyone is welcome to join us as our guests.

NEW Shooters are Welcome and Encouraged!!  If you have ever wondered how much fun it is too dress up like a cowboy and shoot 1800 era pistols, rifles and shotguns at steel targets then COME ON OUT and find out!! New Shooters need to have observed a full match (at Cavalier or elsewhere) before shooting their first match.

Thanks, Major B.S. Walker

1st Sunday Match – October 6, 2024

By /

Tat tata tat ta di – Hello all you boys and girls out there in Cowboy land. Another gorgeous day has come and gone at the Cavalier Range. No blood was drawn but maybe a few tears were shed. I doubt it with all the smiles on everyone’s faces. We had two new smiling faces shoot with us today. A father and son team consisting of Cactus the Kid (father) and his side kick Mr. Sith Shooter. Sith Shooter knocked down all the plates on the plate rack without a single miss on them with his trusty 22 rifle. Way to go young man. Speaking of young men, none of them shot clean all day but Bingo Montana, Bucksaw Bob, Major BS Walker, Timbucktwo Ranger, and Mr. Walker Colt all did.

Don’t forget your support for the upcoming Shoot for a Cure match at West Point in two weeks. Today’s results linked below.

Thanks for all the help:
Major BS Walker- Esquire

2nd Wednesday Match – 8/14/2024

By /

Hello Cow Folks

Through the mud, the blood and the beer, Cavalier pulled off another Wednesday match. We had 11 shooters and 4 of those were new. Welcome Charlie Proudfoot and Reaper Jim, though not new to Cowboy shooting but new to shooting at Cavalier. A BIG welcome to Bucket Mouth and Don DeLaredo who trusted us enough to come and shoot their first ever Cowboy match. Way to go boys. Hope to see a lot more of you in the future. Thanks to everyone who helped out with the business of a cowboy match.
Oh, I just remembered that Tye Riverman fellow was our only Clean All Day shooter and the top dog also.
Results linked below.
Reminder: Friday is the cutoff off date for the Virginia State Championship Match registration but I will be shooting this weekend so all you procrastinators can hand me your registrations and they will still be registered in time. Right now we are at over 100 shooters so please don’t miss out on this one of a kind match, your own State Match.
Your Pard:
Major B.S. Walker

1st Sunday Match – August 4th 2024

By /

Hello Cowpokes

Not a drop of rain until the last people were exiting the front gate. Stayed overcast the whole match which helped take a bite out of the temperatures but the sun came out at tear down time just long enough to make that a little sweaty. After discovering a hornets nest in the ground under the stable, a quick adjustment of targets and shooting location was all that was needed. Well, maybe the gallon of gas we poured down it also helped.. Speaking of helping, the Kuba Kid, Beer Barrel and the NoVA Kid helped themselves to the Clean All Day honors. We also had a father and son team check out their first ever SASS match. Thank you everyone for all your help with the match chores and a special thank you to the NoVA Kid for his hard work on Saturday.
Don’t forget the deadline for the SASS VA. State Match is in about a week and it takes almost that long for the mail to deliver. You can shoot me an email to let me know if you are coming also. Results linked below.
