To the NCOWS Executive committee, and fellow NCOWS members.
Thank you so much for awarding me a NCOWS honorary membership.
I am both surprised and very pleased.
When I started promoting cowboy & western action shooting 11 years ago, I had no idea it would turn out to be such a long term "assignment". Like so many projects that we take on in our lives, this one for me, has turned into many many hours of hard work, and dedication. Many times I have pulled out my hair and many times I wondered what I had got myself into, but the belief in what I was doing, and my love of shooting, kept me in the game on all levels.
No matter the brand we ride for, there will always continue to be challenges to attend to. There are many different sections of this sport and I have enjoyed and still enjoy working with and for all of them.
Being able to work with the wonderful people and friends like I have in NCOWS, has been an added enjoyment for me. You are all a refreshing great group of men and women who are dedicated, and who continually work hard taking a responsible leading role to get and keep the sport back to what it originally was in the beginning.
Challenging, Fair for all, but most of all just Plain Fun.
I tip my hat to you ladies and gentlemen.
I am proud to call myself an NCOWS members.
Again, I am honored and I thank you so much.
