Today began what we came for, Cowboy Action Shooting. This was a warm up match held at a different club 8 miles from camp. The Fire & Ice shoot at Cowtown in Peoria AZ. It’s a working ranch which devotes a portion of the land to shooting ranges. One is set up with permanent stages for Cowboy, another area for modern shooting, another for paintball, more for motorbike/4 wheeler.
There were perhaps 200 shooters for this weekend, about 20 on each posse (shooting group). I shot pretty well, only 1 miss, especially since I have not shot CAS since October. My left shoulder, the one I hurt when I fell on that ice covered rock during deer season, was fine! My right shoulder is still weak when it comes to holding a pistol out straight in front of me. That was the rotator cuff injury and repair a couple years ago.
it was 67 degrees with full sunny sky this afternoon. So comfortable! We sat outdoors to clean the guns and relax in the sun. i didn’t come in until it was cooling off at 5.
Back to Cowtown tomorrow.

One miss, good job.
