4th Annual TEXAS COWBOY MEMORIAL SHOOT
October 16-18, 2009 ~ Seagoville, TX
The North Texas FReepers are most happy to host this years annual TEXAS COWBOY Memorial Shoot. Please join us in this gathering to once again celebrate the life and memory of Elroy and his notion of fun and friendship.
Links To Previous Texas Cowboy Memorial Shoots!
Location: 5 miles south of Route 175 and 3.5 miles NE of I-45 (exit 270) on S. Belt Line Road, near Seagoville, TX This is privately leased land with exclusive use for the weekend.
We will be camping out there that weekend. Y'all are invited to join us for as long as you can stay.
There is plenty of room for camping and we can set up as many as 3 isolated ranges and a free for all along the river. There are also gongs along the river edge at 400 yards. There are no range Nazi's, but the owner has asked for $16 a head for the weekend use of it. He promised to provide picnic tables and exclusive use.
The road in is a bit rough and there is a steep but short hill. So anyone without a high clearance vehicle will have to park up top and we will caravan them in. Or for the daring, We will have a winch to pull ya back up. There will be a modest latrine / shower tent set up as well as a fire pit and some cooking equipment, grills, screen tent, and a 7K watt generator if anyone needs power for their camper. It's a good size parcel, so folks can camp away from the shooting area on flat land near trees or in open area. Plenty of room for dogs too! There are motels within 10 miles in Seagoville.
Area Hotel Information Can Be Found HERE!
A private room will reserved at the "Cotton Gin" in Crandall for diner after the shoot for those that prefer not to camp cook. Besides the great food, it also has free Wi-Fi.
Check Out The Crandall Cotton Gin HERE!
Camping will be the plan for the weekend. The property is a very large wooded area next to a river. It's less than five miles NE of exit 280 of I45 on E. Belt Line Road. Many folks prefer to camp out and cook out at the land, so let's make it a side dish ta pass and bring your own meat to grill (or share) We will be setting up camp early Friday, so if y'all want to take the day off and join in, that would be most kind!
The weather should be great and the TX State Fair will still be open for those that might want to attend.

Dix was awesome.
He was a fountain of political knowledge and a fun guy.
Plus, the inner workings and peccadillos of Houston movers-and-shakers
he could tell you about would blow your mind.
He would bring his Beagle Fannie Mae to the gun range and she would wear hearing protection. No lie.

Aloha My!
Every year this gets more tempting.....
Got an invitation to a family reunion in St Ignes, Michigan in August and am wondering if that's a possible.
But who knows.....I may be wandering around in October too.

We can rustle up some Mexican grub.
Basically what we have here is a 400 yard range with steel gongs on the bend of the river. then there is a free for all shooting across the river at floating targets in the river ...75 yds.
There is a 100 yard range and a pistol range
Most people are more than happy with the river shoot and the 400 yd gongs. A lot of others like to use the 100 yd range for sighting in scopes.
Most pistol shooters like poppin stuff in the river more than working the pistol range
Shooting tennis balls in the river is a complete hoot! you can send them puppies 80 foot up in the air and they dont sink
Shooting skeet across the river is also popular

Hey. I made it through like 3/4... but she made it a double just cause she has a mean streak. She was over there smiling quietly to herself watching me bust my belly This is so true. I just can't help myself.
