Hello Cowpokes

Well, we actually had to contend with sweating today. What a change from just this past weekend. We were all privileged today to have momma and papa Stith  join us with their sons to shoot their first ever Cowboy match. Two Buckaroos joined the ranks today, Dirt Shooter and Benie the Kid with their 22’s pistols and rifle blazing. With the help of some low noise, low recoil 12gauge shells they both handled that equally as well. These two youngsters handled themselves as true young gentlemen. The smiles on these youths’ faces are priceless. Parents will be joining the sport shortly.  We even shot the motorized star and the boys knocked most plates off with the 22 rifles. Thanks to everyone for their assistance with everything today and mentoring the boys.

Hello Folks

Another match is archived in the history books. Just an all around nice day to shoot. It was great to see Fury Pete today when he stopped by to say hi. Although we had plenty of sunshine, we only had  one CAD shooter and that was me. Thank you everyone for all your help with today’s match and suggestions on the upcoming State Match.
Hugs for the women , handshakes for the men and beer for the horses.  Results attached.

Wednesday’s Match is Back! – CANCELLED Due to Weather!

By /

Sorry folk’s but the rain just won’t leave soon enough so will have to cancel.

Major BSW

The title says it all. This Wednesday March 9th, Cavalier starts back shooting their second Wednesday of the month matches. Gates open at 9:30 with first shot down range at 11:00.

The problem for this event is that the weather guessers are calling for a 99% chance of rain. Keeping my fingers crossed that something will change by tomorrow and will update tomorrow.
Thanks:

Hello Everyone

Hope you all had a good time today despite the wind. I don’t think the wind was blowing enough of everyone’s bullets off target but maybe it blew more of some would of been a miss bullets back onto a target because we had six CAD shooters. Ripsaw, Bingo Montana, Sassy Shooting Sours, Kuba Kid, Prairie City Slim and One Eyed Jane all got that honor. Mr Ripsaw pulled off another overall victory. Congrads to all of today’s winners.  Results attached.
Thanks for all the help today

Hello Everyone in Cowboy Chilly (not chili)  Land,

We actually had eleven actual shooters today braving the cold. You could call it twelve braving the cold with me not shooting but I would have to really say we had eighteen brave the cold for the match. We had a couple come watch their first match today and also a family of a husband, wife and two sons that are interested in starting our sport. We did manage to chill out two CAD shooters. Congrads to Lefty Spurmaker and Bingo Montana for that honor. As cold as it was, Bingo was on fire because he was top overall also. I was impressed with the overall times today with cold hands with some 1st, 2nd.and 3rd’s being less than a 1/2 second for the three positions. Hope this was the coldest match for the rest of the year. Results linked below.
Best wishes to All

Announcement! – 2022 SASS VIRGINIA COWBOY ACTION SHOOTING CHAMPIONSHIP

By /

Hello everyone and Merry Christmas,
As most of you know I have been laid up for a while with a back issue, but healing is on the horizon. Though I have not been shooting I have still been working on something and that all panned out today. As of today, The Gunfight at the Double-C, the Cavalier Cowboys two-day Club Championship Match held every April will no longer happen. Now, here in Central VA the Cavalier Rifle & Pistol Club in Montpelier VA and the Cavalier Cowboys have officially been awarded as the location to host the 2022 SASS Virginia State Championship Match to be held on Labor Day weekend. The new VA State Match will be held on the same dates (September 2-4, 2022) as it always has been in Roanoke in recognition of the fourteen years of hard work they put into the memories I know we all cherish.
Updates to the Cavalier website will be forthcoming after the first of the year with all information and registration forms. I am looking forward to shooting again with all you pards and especially looking forward to shooting with everyone this year at the new SASS Virginia State Championship Match, Gunfight at the Double-C held right here in Central VA. 
 
Merry Christmas & Happy New Year!

Major BS Walker
Match Director: SASS VA. State Championship
