WPGC – Cowboy Match & Stages – Sunday, November 20th, 2016

Cowboys & Cowgirls,

The Mattaponi Sundowners will be holding their monthly 3rd Sunday match, this Sunday, November 20th, at the West Point Gun Club.

This month we are offering an optional Josey Wales Category, I have attached a detailed category rule but the idea is the cowboy shoots 4 pistols and a shotgun instead of the usual (pistols, rifle & shotgun). The pistols have to be shot one handed (duelist or gunfighter) and 1 pair of pistols are holstered the other pair is staged per the rifle directions.

The stages have been written by Prairie City Slim and are attached in MS Word and PDF formats.

The match itself will start shooting at 12:30 with the gates opening at 10:00, registration running from 10:30 till 12:00 and the mandatory safety meeting at 12:00 Noon. The costs of the match is $15.00 for non members and $0.00 (free) for members of the West Point Gun Club. Additional details are available on our web site at: www.WestPointGunClub.com.

Match Reminders:

The Mattaponi Sundowners are NOT shooting on the 4th Saturday in November, Nov. 26th.

Our 3rd Sunday match in December, December 18th, will be our annual Christmas Match, we shoot a Christmas themed regular monthly match and then invite everyone to join us at Nicks Restaurant for our Chinese Gift Exchange, more details coming soon.

West Point Rimfire match scores Nov 2 2016

Hi All,

Another beautiful day for shooting at West Point.

We want to welcome Bryan Hood to our 22 Rimfire Steel shoot.

Congrats to Don as the overall winner and winner of the open class!
Congrats to Nutmegger as winner of the limited class!
Congrats to Beartooth as the winner of the cowboy class!

We tried something new to add some spice to our game. Pistol busting clays and rifle busting clays, for the lack of a better class name, was enjoyed! Don took the pistol category and Red took the rifle category. Congrats to our inaugural
winners!

WPGC – Cowboy Match Scores – Sunday, Oct. 16th, 2016

Cowboys & Cowgirls,

Our annual “Shoot for a Cure” match to raise money for the American Cancer Society and raise awareness, was another huge success.

We will be sending out another email a little later in the week with the details on what was raised today, but we exceeded our goals.

I should probably write more, but I am way too tired to make any sense.

We gave out awards to all the winners at the match, so I am not going to repeat them here.

The scores from ACES are attached in PDF format.

Thanks to Everyone who helped make this match another Huge Success!!!!
