I won't make it this year, I have another match that same weekend.
I turned in my registration yesterday for the Battle of Adobe Walls in Pampa, TX. This is the home of the High Plains Highwaymen, the closest cowboy club to me (45 miles away) that has become my home club. Last year this match was the weekend before Land Run but with LR becoming the SASS National Championship and moving to October BofAW was moved to the last weekend in June.
To answer the next question I'm sure that will come up. The Adobe Walls battle site is about 36 miles northeast of my house. Yes, Bat was at the battle of adobe walls.
Another important place in Bat's life, Sweetwater or Hide town (now Called Mobeetie) where Bat was shot in the hip in a gunfight over a girl by the name of Mollie Brennan is 65 east of my house.
