The Buccaneer Range Regulators formed their monthly posse to deal with problems such as gold mine claimjumpers and marrauding bands of native Americans (Indians).  "Dynamite Dan" Lichty was the only member of the posse who was able to throw the lighted dynamite down the mine shaft to flush out the claim jumpers. While dealing with the indians several regulators were able to polish off the last indian by throwing and sticking the tomahawk after running out of bullets.  The posse included it's first Cowgirl!!!! I can't remember her name exactly but it was either "Nicely Nora Morgan" or "Carbine Nora Morgan".  She is the better half of the cowboy known as "Deacon Dave" Morgan (Who bore an uncanny resemblance to Josie  Wales-it must have been the poncho).  We initially had planned to split into three classes-The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly but due to problems filling the Good class we went with the following classes. Traditional (No sights on revolver) Modern (Adjustable sights on revolver) Senior (Ugly and over 60 years old) Cowgirl (includes school marms and dance hall girls).

 

results were as follows: Traditional-Dick W. Holliday, Cherokee Lou Stanley, Gunsmoke Morrison, Deacon Dave Morrison, Livingston Creek Marshall Alercia.     Modern: Dynamite Dan Lichty, Geeshe Buck   Senior:Idaho Spud Mix, Two Times Mcgonigal     Cowgirl; Carbine Nora Morgan.

 

The March posse should be fun as we are planning a "Cow Pie" throwing event as well as the return of the "Quigley Bucket".  We need a few cow pies to be ageing for the event as i understand fresh pies don't throw to good.  Thanks again to Clogged Pipes Lang for keeping score.  As always there was equipment and leather traded around so everyone would have what they needed to shoot-so if you want to participate and don't think you've got all the stuff-just show up and we'll help out.  Tom Morrison wanted to borrow Idaho Spuds boots until Spud took them off- i hope the cow pies aren't that rank...Thanks again to all those who participated and also those who came and watched the match.  Everybody had a good time.  As always "Take a kid shooting"  Respectfully submitted-"Ned Bluntline"
