I wonder if they have any good vendors.
We have a Platinum/Outlaw trailer set up there. Mark got to go down and miss the snow. Stop by and see him. If you need me to, I can ask him to let me know what there is vendor wise. Wish I could be there to meet all the BHW people, that is always fun to meet in person.
I'm not actually going to get to go, but I bet Rollingrfarm would love to know! |

At our house, the late show comes on just after Wheel of Fortune so I told Jim we'd go and I'd be the one to drive us home way since we'll be up way past our bedtime.
So we'll be there Friday night Woooo Hooooo |

| Get the Ruger Montado, very reliable and if you don't end up shooting you can always sell it for near what you will pay for it. |

He has what he calls the "old model" Ruger Vaquero, is that similar to the Montado? |

| The old Vaquero models are very similar, the Montados were designed for mounted shooting. They already have a dropped hammer,short barrels, a slightly smaller frame and are fairly smooth out of the box but still need a little tweaking. I have been using the old style Vaquero for the past 12 years just shortened the barrel and they work fine.

I agree with the stainless 100 % and should have mentioned it! The New Vaqueros are smaller and lighter, I have a set of those I compete with. If I am running two horses or practicing I use my old Vaqueros. |

| If anyone feels like checking Tunica out ... livestream @ http://www.zocranch.org/live-streaming.php
Today they already ran the preliminary shotgun, rifle, and revolving rifle first two stages.
Up next - Eliminator! Where the gender split open (classes 4-6) and limited (classes 1-3) entries compete for extra monies - This is like a jackpot where it is extra to enter up, you run a stage, then they "Eliminate" the slow end of the competition in the class and you run again. After the second round of competition the top 20 are taken back for the Friday night showcase to run one run. Your previous runs are wiped clean and the 3rd and final run places you for the money!! Its awesome and SUPER competitive! |
