2026 Midwest Regional

[Dan Topper]

The National Congress of Old West Shootists Midwest Regional, Guns In The Hills, is almost upon us. It will be held Friday, July 17th through Sunday, July 19th.  This is the twelfth year of this event, and we hope to make it even more fun than last year.  Guns In The Hills has been described as a "premier match not to be missed" by one of the previous year's attendees, and we hope that you will come and see for yourself. 
We will feature free side matches on Friday the 17th at the main range. Long range shooting is available for a fee. On Saturday, the first six of ten stages will be shot. The remaining stages will be shot Sunday, followed by awards after lunch.
All NCOWS categories will be offered for this regional match.  Full descriptions of these categories can be found on the NCOWS web site at www.ncows.org. Any questions can be directed to the match director Dan Topper at [email protected] or 715-246-6218.
   Friday night at the range will feature a "cowboy picnic" supper and a chance to get to know other shooters.  A buffet supper banquet will be held Saturday evening in Menomonie at the Moose Lodge. 
Come and enjoy the shooting experience at the NCOWS Midwest Regional, Guns In The Hills!
