Last Chance Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 When I finish my 20+ hour drive home I'll report thoughts and info on an excellent wet, cold, fun winter range Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C.N. Double Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 This was a really fun match. The stages included a nice balance of speed, longer shots, movement, and variety of starting/staging/re-staging. The props were awesome, and I especially liked the boardwalks found on most of the stages. There was something pleasing about the rhythmic *tink* *tink *tink* of brass falling on the boardwalk when folks were shooting the rifle. It's little stuff like this that stands out to me. I think my favorite part was the amount of movement and distance between positions. The positions seemed pretty far apart compared to what I've been shooting, so it was fun to be able to nearly sprint between some positions. This was especially true on stage 10 where we moved laterally, downrange, then laterally again. I know lots of movement puts some folks at a disadvantage, but there was a good balance. We had one stand and deliver (stage 1) and a few with only one position change. It was great to see old friends and make new ones. I was lucky to be on the same posse as Pleasant Valley Kid, Sweet Shot Sue, Goatneck Clem, Capt Sam Evans, Last Chance Morales, and the Match Director, Boggus Deal. My experience was enhanced just by being around those folks. This was the coolest match I've been to, and I couldn't even stay for the cowboy match (but my guns stayed dry). The WR Territorial Rangers, Blackjack Zac, Boggus Deal, and everyone else involved did a fantastic job. Kudos to you all!

Boggus Deal Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I want to thank all who shot Wild Bunch at Winter Range. I was told that if we can get more registrations, we can get another day and more stages. Please spread the word! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marshal stone Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 I want to thank all who shot Wild Bunch at Winter Range. I was told that if we can get more registrations, we can get another day and more stages. Please spread the word! Are we going to be able to shoot Wild Bunch on Wed. during Cowboy Warm-up or are they going to cut into Fire and Ice? This years match was one of the most stress free WB match matches I've shot. Great job, looking forward to see what you come up with for next year. Marshal Stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Lafives 5481L Posted March 2, 2019 Share Posted March 2, 2019 I think that I mentioned if we could get 150+ shooters we could PROBABLY make 10 posses and so then we could do 6 stages a day for 12 stages. The time take would end up the same with less standing around but still have enough folks to run a posse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
