After a long hot Arizona summer the Winter Range Rough Riders are gathering together to ramp up work on Winter Range 2011 as this will be no ordinary Winter Range!  2011 marks the 20th Anniversary of Winter Range and we are committed to making it special. For starters, every Action Match Shooter will be entered in a drawing for a pair of Ruger SASS Vaqueros!

And fitting for an anniversary; this year Winter Range is proud to host the first SASS National Wild Bunch Championship.  The Wild Bunch match will be a two day, 12 Stage match on Tuesday and Wednesday (22-23 February).

And if that is not enough, the Tombstone Ghost Riders will be hosting the SASS Western National Championship of Mounted Shooting on Saturday and Sunday (26-27 February).  All of this in addition to the Wednesday Side Matches including a 4 stage Warm-up Match, a 4 stage Plainsman Match, Long Range Events, Shotgun Events, and Speed Events.

So if you have not already signed up for Winter Range 2011 you can do so now and attend the SASS National Championship of Cowboy Action Shooting, the SASS National Wild Bunch Championship and the SASS Western National Championship of Mounted Shooting.  A coupon and applications are available at www.winterrange.com , or you can call us at 623-465-8683 and we will send or email you a coupon and application.  The coupons expire on December 15th, so do not delay too long!

If you have already signed up for Winter Range 2011 we thank you for your support.  As a two-time winner of the SASS Wooly Award we make every effort to make Winter Ranger the best it can be.  We think you will be pleased with what we have planned for our 20th Anniversary.

But, we shall endeavor to persevere, and some of us will be shooting anyway.  The rumor I have is that the stages may be some of the ones proposed for the NCOWS National Shoot this year, so we might get in a little practice.

Probably better be there by 9AM, safety meeting at 9:30, start shooting by 10AM.  No idea how much ammo you might need, just bring plenty.

And don’t forget, May 1st and 2nd will be the infamous Two-Gun Shoot at Garnett.  I will have information at the shoot this weekend, and there will be another post/e-mail in the near future about it.

For those who foolishly did not attend the recent NCOWS Convention, we will have plenty of stories to tell you this Sunday!

That’s all for now.

The Kansas Vigilance Committee is a NCOWS club with jurisdiction over the entire State of Kansas, but we do have some renegade Missourians running with us, and we intend to make the occasional raid across the border. Most of the members are around the Kansas City area, but we have people scattered across the state.

Membership in the KVC is open to anyone, and there are no dues. Cowboys being notoriously free with their money, it seems more productive to ask for donations!

You can probably see from the above information that the Kansas Vigilance Committee is a pretty informal organization. We don’t hold a regular or monthly “stand-up” shoot, as there is plenty of that available. We prefer to meet at irregular intervals at different places to camp in the cowboy manner, and engage in shooting matches that require sharp thinking as well as sharp shooting. Our gatherings so far have featured “woods walk”-type scenarios that require a knowledge of wilderness survival, a keen eye to search out hidden targets in the woods, and a strategy to engage multiple adversaries without getting yourself “killed.”

The Kansas Vigilance Committee will host the annual 2-Gun Regional Match April 30-May 2.  This event is always different and Challenging.  Also included in the festivities is the NCOWS National Double-Action Championship.  The KVC is renowned for their Primitive Camping and having as much or more fun after the guns are cleaned and put away.

Our future plans include a weekend at a working horse ranch to give everyone some experience with a real cowboy’s closest companion. See The Shootist for shoot dates etc. or click here to go to the NCOWS Calendar.

This is a great bunch of folks trying very hard to make a new club grow.  I hope you will please consider making the trip to Colfax this Sunday for this match.  It’s going to be a whole bunch of fun!!

Military uniforms are appreciated but not required and it’s a great opportunity to explore the GAF shooting style. If you have guns appropriate for any NCOWS match, you have what you need for the GAF match.
