TwoWalks,

PM Books O'Toole and he will send you a guide booklet on forming a posse!  He's the go to guy on this!  There is no equipment requirements and we have at least 1 posse that does old west reenactments.  You will eventually need targets and a timer, but they are not required to start a posse.

Bob, can not locate Books O'Toole to send a PM.  Is there an email address?

TwoWalks, if you look up the thread about 4 posts above yours you will see who Books is. Here is his e-mail. anastasiasbooks@comcast.net

Good luck on starting the posse. From the rules it doesn't appear to be that hard. Sure would like to hear that you got one going in your neck of the woods. It's great to find others who share the same interest you have. Check local gun shows and gun shops and see if they mind you posting some adverts on NCOWS and a posse. I know the NCOWS site has a few documents you can download and hand out that explain what NCOWS is all about. That should help you get them interested.  ;D

Okay...

I have asjked this on another thread, but feel that it is worth dicussing here too...

I am a member of the 'Florida Cracker Cow Calvalry', as was my namesake, the original Wadd Watson Ellis. Barring a vacation that overlaps a shoot, I will probably never get to indulge with them, but still want to keep up active membership.

My question for the group is, can I be members of two possis (sp?) at once?

Thanks!

BTW, If you have already ansered the question in theat 'other thread', I am just about to look in my 'new replies to my posts' ... So thanks!

WWE,

Yes, you can be a member of two posses.  You must declare one as your primary posse and you will count for insurance purposes for that one only!

Thanks RickB, now I see why I could not locate Books.  I was searching for "Books O'Toole" not Books OTool ... no ' in it, so no return.  ;D

I guess that is why my minster just hangs his head in resignation ... I try but I never really get those two words correct ... Cavalry and Calvary ... been hanging around too may sky pilots perhaps ...

But I think I would be closer if I just plead poor grammar .... 'course my grampa wasn't that rich either ... sorry, it just snuck out ....

Two Walks,

I give up on PMs ... I'll have to try Flap Jack later ... the gist of it is that we ar both CentraL CA people, and if we wanted to start an NCOWs club we would just need three more  .... and I am guessing that with all the people iin californiagunslingers.com there is sure to be three more people who would be intersted in being dual members like us .....and I would help back you up ....if you are interested ...

I have a friend that is also interested in starting a posse.  Actually we only need 3 and 5 by the end of the year.  From what I can tell to actually hold events and too get a posse to run smoothly we are looking at about 12 +.
