Mattaponi Sundowners 12-19-21

Howdy All,

Well, what a day; wind, rain, sleet and then sun shine just as we were leaving. Thanks to Potter for thinking ahead and putting up the an extra tent for shooting under. We had 15 shooters that were brave or whatever, that came out and shot the match. Thanks to all that did the set up and those that helped with tear down.

Congrats to Dakota Rambler As Overall Match winner and to Dakota Rambler, Ripsaw, Tom Mix and Wistful McClintock for shooting CAD.

Thanks to all that joined us at Nick’s for our annual Christmas party and gift exchange.  It was a nice event with nice gifts.

WE WISH EVERYONE A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAPPY NEW YEAR!!  Hope to see everyone healthy and safe in 2022.

Mattaponi Sundowners: LAST CALL FOR DINNER

Howdy All,

This is the last call for Cowboy dinner and gift exchange at Mick’s tomorrow.

If you DON”T plan to shoot but plan on coming to dinner, please let me know.  I would like to give them a decent head count for the dinner so they will be prepared. You DO NOT need to respond if you plan on coming to the match.

Thanks.

Sassy

Mattaponi Sundowners: match results

Howdy All,

The day started out questionable but ended fairly nice, a bit more sun would have been good though.

Congratulations to Ripsaw as Overall Match winner. Congrats to Beartooth, Cody Maverick, Ripsaw and Single Barrel Sam for shooting CAD. We welcomed a new shoot, Todd, to the Cowboy family.

We sure hope Major B. S. Walker and Flatboat Bob a speedy recovery and a speedy rejoining of the Cowboy family. Flatboat Bob is scheduled for hernia repair surgery after the New Year. It was good to have Beartooth back and glad to hear of Monna Bear’s progress with recovery. 

Don’t forget that next Sunday will be at Cowboy Christmas match. We will be having dinner at Nick’s after the match, with a Chinese gift exchange if you want to participate. If you aren’t’ going to make it to the match but would like to join us for dinner THEN email me. No need to let me know if you are going to be at the match. More details to come on Tuesday.

Have a GREAT week and stay safe.
