Mattaponi Sundowners: Saturday match

/ By

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

 

Sorry we are a few hours late sending this out. The Mattaponi Sundowners will be holding a match this Saturday. Gates will open at 0830, safety meeting at 0930 and shooting starts at 1000.

 

The weather is looking dry and mid 50’s. Looks like an enjoyable day but any day spent with Cowboys/Cowgirls and shooting is a good day.

 

We hope that you can join us Saturday.

Hello Shooters!

We had a great day shooting.  I was very pleased with the turnout; we saw some new faces and a few we hadn’t seen in a while.  It was nice and sunny, if not a little cold.  But everyone seemed to have a good time.

So here are the scores.  Congrats to Prairie City Slim, Cody Maverick, and Paul Michelet, leaders in the Cowboy, Limited, and Open Divisions, respectively. 

See you all on 01 DEC, our next match….if it’s not too cold!

Mattaponi Sundowners: Shoot For A Cure

/ By

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

A week from tomorrow we will be having our annual “Shoot For A Cure” match with all proceeds going to the America Cancer Society through our Relay For Life Team.  As usual the Mattaponi Sundowners will not be keeping 1 cent of any money collected. We will have raffles, silent auctions, and items for sale. Some items will just be grouped as a general raffle; when the number is picked that person will just come get the item they want. Larger raffle items will have their own raffle container. People have been generous to us. We have the $500 gift card from Green Top, we also have a Ruger Wrangler donated by Bingo Montana and a Norinco 12 ga shotgun donated by Ripsaw and our special handcrafted stool by Cockscrew Tom. All of these items will have their own raffle. 

My goal has been and will always be to get $1 more but given the economy and all that everyone has been through in the past 2 years, I’ll be happy with all we get. WPCF will donate $5 for each person that signs up and shoots the match. So get an email to 97graves@gmail.com letting me know your name, alias and category.

If you can’t come but would like to donate, send a check payable to AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY and mail to: Pat Graves 3030 King William Ave. West Point, VA. 23181. Please hurry if this is your plan because I would like to turn in all money the day of the match.

WPGC Rimfire Steel: WPGC Rimfire Steel Match Scores for 06 OCT

/ By
Hello Shooters!
 
We had a great match despite the threat of rain!  And a great turn out.  Because of the forecast we shortened the match to three strings per stage in lieu of the normal variation, so we were able to beat the forecasted rain time that never occurred, go figure!
 
Anyway, congrats to Kidd, Vaquero, and Ford as victors in the Cowboy, Limited, and Open Divisions, respectively.  The scores are attached for posterity.
 
Our next match will be on 03 NOV.  Hope to see everyone come out and join the fun!

WPGC Rimfire Steel: WPGC Rimfire Steel Match for 06 OCT

/ By
Hello Shooters!
 
I’ve been looking at the weather for WED, 06 OCT.  Depending on which model you look at, it’s either scattered showers, mostly cloudy, and/or chances of thundershowers.  Accu-Weather says it will be mostly cloudy with occasional showers.  So let’s take a chance and go ahead and have the match.
 
So we will open the gates at around 0900 (9 AM).  We’ll start by putting up the tents while watching the weather.
 
Hope to see you all then!
