Howdy!

14 shooters braved the cold last month and by high noon it was sunny and in the 50’s. Things went very smoothly. Our new Pards are getting into the routine of Cowboy Action Shooting and I am having fun what else matters? Charlie Greybeard has a made us a Pale Riders website, it is still under Construction, but it’s coming along nicely. Sheriff Ned Wyncoop says our story should be out in Columbus and the Valley magazine at the beginning of March.


Our Ammo and loan a gun program went pretty well. We will help everyone, but just a reminder that we are not in the ammo business. We are loading to give more people the chance to participate in our sport. Some of you still owe Coot Gibson for ammunition used last match. Please see him Saturday.


Take Notice!!!!

April’s match will be moved to the first Saturday(the 7th) in order to allow those who wish, to attend the Georgia State shoot at Doc Holliday’s Immortals in Griffin GA. The Pale Riders will run a side match there on Friday the 13th. Doc Holiday’s Immortals have donated one Paid Entry to the State shoot (an 85$ value) to our club. We will have a drawing March 10th for that prize. You must be a registered shooter that day to win.


Congratulations Andy !!! He won the drawing. A Gift certificate for a six month membership to Shooters of Columbus.


Whoot Al still has a Stevens 311 double barrel or two for sale. You can contact him at the email address below for details.

Some of you Pilgrims need to come up with an Alias and a cowboy hat or it will be a 5 second penalty for being out of character.


We will have four stages to shoot on Saturday. 50 rounds of Pistol, 50 rounds of rifle and 25 Shotgun shells will (should) cover everything one cowboy should need. If you have some pards who want to come out and shoot but don’t have enough gear just let me know. We have spare guns, ammo and leather for anyone interested.


It’s that time again!!!

ANNUAL DUES of $35 are… due. Please bring your money to the Next Match or mail it to:
Will Killigan
7335 McKee Road
Upatoi GA 31829

Remember, members shoot at reduced prices. This is a family membership so bring the family.

Rain dates. If the rain is really coming down, Then we will postpone our match until the following Saturday. If you are unsure, call Will Killigan. If it is after 0730 and I don’t answer then I’m on my way to the range.


After careful deliberations, considerations and calculations the club officers have devised the following plan. Ammunition, guns and leather will be available for those in need. We will have ammo for .45 Colt .44 Special .38 Special and 12 Gauge. The club will charge $20 for the ammo and the guns are free. This is in addition to the usual match fee. This will be all the rounds they would need to shoot our match that day, regardless of the number of rounds expended for the match. The club will keep the brass and reload it for the next match. Proceeds from this will go for new targets and range improvements.

Pards are always welcome to bring their own ammo and shoot club guns, if they don’t have all their own Iron.


Ride Easy & We’ll See You Saturday!!
