Well TFS is down and what da ya know I found this site. With some of the same folks. With trials and tribulations can come personal growth! Allright and Howdy to you all.
NCOWS member with no posse in MI but I have made it down to the GLF&M Co. twice this year. Just don't have the heart for SASS anymore, shooting next to Hoppy who is trying to get 1911 performance out of his 19th century clone just isn't fun anymore. Really into the history and persona aspect of this past time.
My persona is a hunter of the mid 1870's, using Billy Dixon, Yellowstone Kelly, and O.P. Hanna histories as resource material. Shoot Colt SAA circa 1876, Colt turned rd. Barrel Pocket Navy (.38 LC) circa 1873-74, Henry clone, and turn of the century hammered long barreled shotgun (would like to chop it to look cool but don't see a hunter running around with an express gun).
Have a 19 y.o. mare that is just now learning to be shot off of, and as soon as my daughter gets her gentled down for sure with one competition under her belt, I'm gonna give it a try! I only call myself a horseman in front of city folks.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
