Howdy All,
Well, we managed to miss the rain that fell from the sky but sure got the humidity. We had good stages, good friends and a good time; can’t beat that.
Congrats to Major B. S. Walker as Overall match winner. Congrats to Flatboat Bob, Potter County Kid, Major B. S. Walker and Bingo Montana for shooting CAD. It sure was good to have Cotton Connie back with us today. Congrats to Dough Boy for getting his first “popper”.
There are no matches next weekend as far as I know being the 5th weekend of the month. Oh, boy! Honey Do lists.
Hope to see y’all in 2 weeks at Pungo and Cavalier.
Sassy and Potter
Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,
The Mattaponi Sundowners will be having a match on Saturday, August 22, 2020. The gates will open at 0800, safety meeting at 0930 and shooting starts at 1000.
We hope to see y’all there. We will have tents and fans as needed.
Please remember to keep Missouri Marshal and Tricky Trina in your prayers.

Howdy All,
Well, the weatherman lied again! It did rain some but with the tents no one got wet while shooting. Great match Cody and great planning Potter. We got to debut a new target. It wasn’t one of my best stages but I had fun, better had for as long as I’ve wanted this target.
Congratulations to Cody Maverick as Overall match winner. Congrats to Flatboat Bob, Sassy and Dough Boy for shooting CAD. Can you believe Dough Boy hasn’t shot 10 matches yet and has his first CAD already.
We hope all of you had a good time. Thanks you for all of the hard work setting up and tearing down. We look forward to seeing y’all next Saturday at West Point.
Remember to keep Missouri Marshal in your prayers.
Sassy and Potter
Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,
This Sunday we will be holding a match at Mattaponi. We will be trying out a new target and are looking forward to it. Gates will open at 1000, safety meeting at 1200 and shooting starts at 1230.
The weather isn’t looking too bad. We will have tents and fans as needed. We still will be trying to practice social distancing and wearing a mask is suggested but optional. Please do not arrive at the last minute as it makes getting posse assignments difficult.
We have an update on Missouri Marshal. He says that he is slowly improving and now able to walk around in the house without assistance of a walker. He is to see the doctor this week with hopes of getting the staples and drains removed. Please keep him and Trina in your prayers.
Looking for to seeing you Sunday.
Sassy and Potter
Howdy Cowboys and Cowgirls,
With much thought, soul searching and knowledge; I regret having to do this but Shoot For A Cure 2020 is CANCELLED. You all know me well enough to know that I try to be a good cowgirl but I also try to be a good nurse and the nurse and cowgirl in me tell me it’s my job to try to keep everyone I love safe.
There has been too many people this year affected by illness, loss of job or reduced hours plus the worry of the risk of illness. It is hard to practice social distancing in a match so filled with love and support. We also can’t get the shirts to sell which is a big money maker, we won’t be having an Expo at Green Top which is another big money maker and I just can’t ask for donations from someone that may be experiencing any hardships due to Covid19.
I just hope that everyone can understand that I love all of y’all too much to put anyone at risk of possible serious illness. I will do all that I can to make 2021 Shoot For A Cure a great match. I appreciate all of the hard work that goes into this match from everyone especially all that Inita Shoot and Wistful McClintock do for it but we will just have to wait another year.
Stay safe. The Mattaponi Sundowners will be shooting a match on the day that we would have had the Shoot For A Cure. We will do all that we can to make this a fun match. I know there might be a few people that would still like to make a donation to the American Cancer Society, we will be glad to accept this and get to the proper people for you. Just make your check out to: American Cancer Society and mail to Pat Graves 3030 King William Ave. West Point, VA 23181.
With much love,
Sassy Shooting Sours
