Folks, for those who would like the chance to shoot BAMM (Bolt Action Military Match) or GAMM (Garand Action Military Match) but don't own a 1903A3 or similar bolt action rifle or an M1 Garand, have no fear! We will have extra rifles and loaded ammo (5 round stripper clips and 8 round en bloc clips) for each for anyone to use during the side matches. Come on out and give them a try. The worst that can happen is that you will add a rifle or two to the arsenal. Regards, BBB

Folks, attached is the updated message from Asup Sleeve, the Texican Ranger President and Match Director. We've finalized the side matches and have the main match stages locked in. Equally important, we have the caterer for Saturday night's chicken fried steak dinner and the food vendor committed. As always, feel free to contact me with any questions about the Texas State Wild Bunch Championship 2021. Regards, BBB 2021_WB_Registration_letter_2.doc

Folks, our Texas State Wild Bunch Championship is shaping up very nicely. We have a number of manufacturers' donations, shooter prizes, a raffle for a Para-Ordnance Official SASS 1911 (tuned by the late and great Goatneck Clem), and much more planned. Our side matches will offer something for every WB shooter - BAMM, GAMM, Doughboy, long range rifle, fastest 1911, Blazing Saddles, and a very challenging Team Shoot with the winning team members getting a gold buckle! We will host a catered chicken fried steak dinner on Saturday night, and it's included in your registration fee. We have a local food vendor who will sell breakfast and lunch on Friday and Saturday, and Sunday morning. Sunday lunch will be on us! I've attached a current a Schedule of Events and a picture of the buckles we will be awarding. If nothing else, take a look at it! We are limiting the number of entrants to 100 shooters, so get your application in early. As always, contact me with any questions.

Ready to channel your inner Pike, Dutch or even Lyle or Techtor Gorch? The Texican Rangers will host the 2021 Texas Wild Bunch State Championships over Labor Day weekend, September 3 - 5, 2021. We will host this match at the Stieler Ranch, located between Comfort and Fredericksburg, Texas. Friday will be side matches, including but not limited to BAMM, GAMM, Blazing Saddles, fastest pistol, etc. The main match will consist of 12 stages of WB over Saturday and Sunday. We will conduct WB matches the 2nd Saturday of every month, and we invite everyone to come enjoy a match with us. Dry camping is available, and we conduct cowboy church 20 minutes or so before the match. To further develop interest in Wild Bunch, we will host a Wild Bunch clinic on Saturday, March 13 for anyone interested in trying WB. It is designed to not only familiarize new shooters in the operations, functions, and quirks of the 1911, but also to build a real knowledge of Wild Bunch competition rules, strategies, and competitive tips to smoothly and successfully transition CAS shooters into another SASS competitive offering. This course is one hour classroom and the remaining time on the range conducting live fire training drills. Sunday, we will host a 5 stage match to give a little experience in what an actual match entails. More information to follow, and please check our website (texicanrangers.org) for updates and applications. We would ask the Club POCs get this to their members as time permits. Please call or write me with any questions 210-310-9090. We look forward to seeing you!
