Defend Devil’s DropA Cowboy Action Shooting event in a remote scenic prairie setting.
Home cooked meals, friendly folks, and local history.
Located on Bow View Farm along the banks of the West Bow Creek
in eastern Knox County near Crofton Nebraska.
Take Hwy. 12 west from Crofton 1 mile to county blacktop, 550th Ave. (old Hwy. 121) and go south on 550th Ave. 3 ¾ miles across the Bow Creek bridge. Turn west and follow the drive.
Saturday, April 25th 9:00AM sign up with a safety meeting at 9:30.
We will have 6 Main Match stages, and a hearty meal as well.
We’ll set up Friday and maybe get some practice in Friday evening.
We can finish things up Sunday morning with some extra fun matches.
We recognize the standard SASS categories, the GAF battle rifle class structure and a few other optional classes.
The cost of this cowboy match is $20 per shooter.
Guns of the Old West: single action revolvers, pistol caliber lever action rifles, military or buffalo rifles and old time shotguns. Your score is your time plus penalties for misses and such. Low score wins. An honest effort to dress in appropriate “old west” style clothing is appreciated. We will be following SASS safety and scoring rules as best we can for the Cowboy Action main match and side matches. With everyone pitching in everything should run smoothly.
