Howdy all Cowboys and Cowgirls,

The weather guessers are telling us the rain we be gone by match time on Sunday.  However, with the sharp drop in temperatures throughout the morning and afternoon and wind of 15-20 with higher gusts we have decided to cancel the match on Sunday. 

Our next scheduled match will be Saturday, January 26, 2019.  More details to come on that match.

Howdy all Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Mattaponi Sundowners will be shooting this Sunday, Jan. 20.  The gates will open at 1030, safety meeting at 1200 and shooting starts at 1230.  Looks to be a great match written by Major B. S. Walker.

The weather isn’t looking to good for us with another weekend storm coming in on Sunday.  Keep an eye on your email.  If the match is called a NO GO, we will send out a message via email as soon as we can get a good look at the forecast.

Hope the weather changes and we get to see you there.

Mattaponi Sundowners match for 1-20-2019

Howdy Cowboys/Cowgirls,

It was a nice day for shooting but a little chilly near the end but NO rain.  Thanks to everyone for helping with set up and tear down.

There’s a new Cowboy in town: Congratulations to Ripsaw as Overall match winner and to Cody Maverick as Jose Wales overall winner (mentioned that because so many shot Jose Wales). Congrats to Flatboat Bob, Ripsaw and One Eyed Jane for shooting CAD.

DON’T FORGET THERE WILL NOT BE A 4^TH SATURDAY MATCH AT MATTAPONI IN NOVEMBER!!

Got congrats from a Cowboy today on the success of the “Shoot For A Cure” match and the gantlet has been dropped: They want us to raise $10,000 next year!!!  Better start saving up now.  None of it is possible without ALL of you wonderful people.  I will try if y’all will.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO EVERYONE AND TRAVEL SAFE!!

Howdy All Cowboys/Cowgirls,

This Sunday, November 18, 2018 the Mattaponi Sundowners will be holding their monthly match but with a Jose Wales category, if you so desire to forego using your rifle.  This will be an option for the brave hearted.  Attached are the stages and rules for shooting the Jose Wales category.

Gates will open at 1000, safety meeting at 1200 and shooting starts at 1230.  The weather will be cool but DRY, as of what they are saying now.  

Hope to see y’all there. DON’T FORGET THAT THERE WILL NOT BE A 4TH SATURDAY MATCH AT MATTAPONI THIS MONTH.

Howdy all Cowboys and Cowgirls,

WELL, YOU NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME!!!!!!  We raised over $8000 today, no typo here.   I will send out a total once I know it; I still have 2 people sending checks that haven’t arrived yet.  I’m still in SHOCK!!!!

I was a good day but I could have done without the wind.  I think I’m still shivering but I will have sweet dreams tonight and that will be soon.  Attached are the results and CAD.  Congrats to Cody Maverick as Overall match winner.  Congrats to Bucksaw Bob, Flatboat Bob, Hotshod, Kid At Heart, One Eyed Jane and Smackwater for shooting CAD.  Everyone today was a winner in my book and today MY book is the  one that counts.

This money will be spent for a good cause and will help provide many needs for cancer, from Research to ground level helping the patient. I also wanted to let y’all know that the person that won the Green Top gift card/shotgun was the one that was meant to have it, his wife is having surgery tomorrow.  I had a good feeling when I talked with him, without knowing anything about him.

Don’t forget Sussex County Range Wars next weekend and will see y’all there.

THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH FOR YOUR GIVING SPIRIT AND WARM HEARTS!!!

SHOOT FOR A CURE results 2018
SHOOT FOR A CURE cad 2018

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

It’s that time, yes; we are getting ready for our annual Breast Cancer match, “Shoot For A Cure”.  This match will be October 21, 2018 so please mark your calendars accordingly. 

We are working hard to make this a GREAT match and with lots of wonderful things for raffle, auction and for sale.  As in the past, this match is one that everyone pays to shoot (including members of WPGC).  ALL money collected in shooting fees, raffle/auction and sale items will be donated to an area Relay For Life team.  West Point Gun Club is also donating $5 for every shooter that will preregister and attend the match.  West Point Gun Club will NOT make a or keep a penny of any money, it is all donated.

I’ve gotten the match written and I think it will be fun. All 3 bays will be used with 2 stages in each bay.  We will recognize the winner of each category at the end of the match.  Scores will be done as soon as the match is over while the bays are being broken down.  We will also announce the amount collected and donated.  There have been times in the past that more money was received after the match but you will be updated as to the total amount once it’s known.

Just a hint of things to look forward to, we have 2 guns to raffle and many more wonderful things.

To preregister: email Whiskey Mae at Whiskeymae1@gmail.com with Cowboy Alias and Category

No money needs to be sent now but if you can’t make it to the match and would like to donate, please make checks payable to the AMERICAN CANCER SOCIETY and mail to Sassy Shooting Sours at 3030 King William Ave.  West Point, VA. 23181

 We really want to make this a great success and we can’t do it without you.  I want $1 more than last year.  Please past this email along all of the Cowboy’s that you know.

Sassy Shooting Sours

Howdy All Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Will Potter survived his first match without getting strung up!!  It was a close call though!!  We hope everyone enjoyed the match.  It was great to have Okoboji Kid with us again.  We welcomed a new shooter but I think he was a ringer, he was CAD until the last stage.  We really got a surprise from Longhorn Louie and Wanda.  They dropped by the range and it was really great to see him after open heart surgery.  Hopefully, he will be shooting with us again soon.

Congrats to Major B. S. Walker as the Overall Match winner.  Congrats to Hotshod, One Eyed Jane, Will Sonnet, Major B. S. Walker for shooting CAD.

JUST A REMINDER, THAT THERE ARE NO MATCHES NEXT WEEKEND, BEING 5^TH SATURDAY AND 5^TH SUNDAY!!

Hope all of those shooting W. Va. State had great success.

There will be an email coming, probably tomorrow, about the “Shoot For A Cure” match.  We want this to be a great success so mark your calendar accordingly for October 21.

Howdy all Cowboys and Cowgirls,

Attached are the stages for Saturday’s match.  This match was written by Potter County Kid and this is his first match.  Stage 1 was be an experimental stage for possible future black powder matches.  This stage will be set up as a tunnel, so black powder loads will be a true test of this stage.

Gates will open at 0830, safety meeting at 0930 and shooting starts at 1000.  The weather isn’t looking bad for the time of the match.  If there are changes, you will be notified by email as soon as we can.

Hope to see y’all there.  For those that are shooting the W VA state match; good luck and safe travels.

Howdy All,

Well we had a little rain but none during the match, although it was warm and humid.  Sorry we didn’t have the fans going but safety rules.  We had a small group but it looked to be fun.  We missed y’all but hopefully everything is well for y’all.

Please keep Ricochet Kid and family in your prayers, as his Mom isn’t improving as last thought.

Congrats to Cody Maverick as Overall Match winner.  Congrats to Beartooth, Cotton Connie, Flatboat Bob, One Eyed Jane, Prairie City Slim and Wistful McClintock for shooting CAD.

Many of y’all will be at WVa. State match next weekend but Mattaponi Sundowners will be shooting next Saturday, it’s regular 4^th Saturday match.  Details to come later in the week. 

Good Luck to those going to WVa and travel safe.
