Ocoee Rangers Cowbow Action Shooting

What Has 20 Eyes And Makes A Lot Of Noise?

Nope, it’s not a cicada, or jar fly as it’s called in East TN. Here’s a hint: we had 10 cowgirl shooters at the August Shoot. OK, Too Tall: that’s 10 cowgirls X 2 eyes each. Get it? The picture below shows the cowgirls of Posse No. 3, Tombstone’s posse. Of course they don’t really like him all that well. Deadman threatened to shoot’em if they didn’t stand close for the picture, but that didn’t faze’em, no better than he shoots. Last Kiss had to make the same threat before it worked. In total, we had 72 shooters out on the range shooting steel varmints.

71 Shooters Battled Steel Bad-Guys At The July Shoot

What does it take to have a good Cowboy & Cowgirl Action Shoot? It takes cowboys & cowgirls, and we had lots of ‘em at the July Shoot: 71 total shooters, 10 of which were cowgirls. Marshal Too Tall was the Top Gun of the day, and broke the record in the Buffalo Shoot .22 Cal. competition, scoring 45 of a possible 50 points. He also won the Single Shot Rifle Competition in the Buffalo Shoot. Last Kiss regained the Top Cowgirl Shooter position, while placing 17th in overall competition. Sundance McNeyman won the other Buffalo Shoot competitions: Lever Action Rifle and Long Range Pistol.

Cowboy Action Shooting is a colorful sport, and these cowboys are a good example.
