How to squeeze even more Fun out of Cowboy Action Shooting! Coming up during the months of December and January are SASS RO Classes presented by RO Instructor Texas Jack Daniels. “Back in the day” any RO II qualified cow-person could teach an RO I class but in the interest of presenting a uniform ‘product’ to the SASS membership the Powers that Be decided to come up with the RO Instructor Program. TRR is extremely fortunate to have one of these qualified “Black Badges” walk among us.

So you want to be a better, faster Cowboy Shooter? TRR will be hosting a shooter clinic on Nov 9, a club practice day. The lead instructor, Texas Jack Daniels, will cover target engagement, transitions, movement and mind set in a class that is designed for the beginning shooter as well as the Top Dawg—wanta-be’s. Best news about this all: it’s free to our members and friends!

And then there were Six! TRR has honored a number of its members over the years for going well past ‘above and beyond’ in helping the club. From building stage buildings, the pavilion and other structures to working behind the scenes to see that everything is ready for each and every match and maintaining paperwork (oh, the amount of paperwork that we generate) these cowfolk have always been “there” ready and willing to help.

It’s only 17 days till our Independence Day Celebration, this being our 243 birthday. So dig out your red, white and blue outfits, decorate you gun cart and plan to whoop it up at Saturday’s match. We’ll be looking forward to rivaling the party they had in the movie McLintock!

And speaking of Summer Dress . . . as our beloved weather forecasters have predicted 90 degrees for Saturday’s match we enter into the time of allowing modifications to the SASS Dress Code. The board decided last year the change-over point is when the temperature equals or exceeds 90 degrees.

Why is my name in color and why that color? Way back in the dark ages when I put our newsletter together I had three objectives or goals. First: have the newsletter keep the members informed about what is happening behind the curtain. I feel that the less done behind closed doors the better. Sometimes I probably go a bit overboard in keeping you informed but I see that as the lesser of two evils.

Well the Long Range Committee and a few folks with “strong backs and weak minds” spent quite a bit of effort in the last few weeks getting the long range at Willow Hole functional, working around rain and muddy conditions.

Notes on Matches: The past two matches had several similar characteristics: both had a 4-wheel drive kind of feeling on the drive to and from the rain. Weather was a bit cool but nothing to complain about (I still
remember how hot last summer was!)

The report on LSTR 18 will be coming out in the near future. Jan 5: Our initial match of the year was blessed with wonderful weather, get stages, colorful targets (if you see black & white as colorful) and people ready to shoot at stuff. The drive into the range was a mite muddy but no one got stuck though Nile City Slick tore up those things that go in the bottom of cars—still don’t know if he got it fixed.
