Today was the last days practise for those contenders off to Millmerran for the National Titles this coming week. I am unable to go, however good luck and straight shooting to those shooters that are going, just remember "The Spirit of the Game" and you cannot loose, after all it is just a Game and should you forget this then Cowboy Action Shooting is definitely not for you. It was pleasing to see new shooters on the line today and of course the old faces as well, special guest was Rossco visiting from Tasmania. The weather at The Last Frontier was again fantastic. Some excellent shooting skills were exhibited by The Swampfox with his unique Gunfighter style and this was one of the many events that pleased the crowd.

Where did that cork go.jpg (341955 bytes)Today was the Doc Holiday Memorial, it is now three years since the passing of Macca Life Member #1 pictured third from the left, it was also Fathers Day and all of those fathers that turned up for the five fantastic stages certainly didn't go home disappointed. The stages were of international standard making for excellent practise in readiness for the Australian National Titles to be held at Millmeran come the end of September. For those of you that haven't nominated and have never been to the Nationals may I suggest that you contact Anne Faith now to lodge your late nomination.

Sunday 2nd September,2007.
The weather was one hundred percent perfect again after last weekends cyclone and torrential rain. Today shoot was produced by Lady Nell, The County Judge and Sundance Kid. Thankyou to you all. The five stages were some what different to my writing and very enjoyable to shoot. Sure one had to think a bit but nothing was too difficult. I am now looking for someone to write the next five stages based on the targets as they are set on the range. Now that shouldn't be to hard of and ask as there are no targets to shift, just write the stages and increase your enjoyment in the sport.. Click on the pdf file to view todays scores.020907.pdf

Sunday 24th September,2006. Today was the last chance to practise before next weeks Australian Titles to be held at Millmerran Queensland. Good luck to all those competing. Perfect Spring weather made for a glorious day with clear blue skies and a slight breeze. Our guests today on their way to the Nationals were Wandering Star and Chuck Wagon from Melbourne. Five stages were shot with one stage being a walk down. It consisted of 9 rifle..10 pistol and 8 + shotgun rounds all knockdowns and it surely got the adrenaline going.

Sunday 3rd September 2006. The Doc Holiday Memorial Shoot. It is already 12 months ago since we lost one of our finest Cowboys and dedicated Club member. Today we remembered Doc Holiday aka Frank MacDonald Life Member # 1 some also knew him as Macca.Where did that cork go.jpg (341955 bytes) Pictured Wedding celebrations centre Doc and Matte Holiday. Doc as most of you will know was a quite bloke. Doc liked to be a real cowboy, he shot real 45's and shot duelist. During the time he was involved with Cowboy Action Shooting he manufactured many things for the sport. Ivory grips were his speciality. He made the Original star badges that most of us wear....he made and engraved the name tags together with the engraved plates that you did see on the many trophies at several award ceremonies. Yes Doc's heart was with Cowboy Action Shooting. He loved to explain to new comers just what the game was all about.
We must all take an example from Doc Holiday's experiences because, we don't appreciate the things we have until we have lost them.
