A date and cabin locations have finally been chosen.
This years shoot will be October 18th. Once again it will be held in Seagoville, (5 miles south of Route 175 or 3.5 miles NE of I-45 (exit 270) on S. Belt Line Road). The plan at this time is to meet at Cotton Gin in Crandle for breakfast at 9:00 a.m., BUT they are currently closed due to a fire. Hopefully they will be reopened by October. If not, Plan B will be put in place. After breakfast we will all head to the range. A delicious lunch will be provided at the range by our wonderful FRiend cpdiii.
The cabins where we are staying are Miller Creek Ranch in Canton, TX. There is a map of the place Here
A block of cabins have been reserved under the name TexasCowboy Memorial Shoot. To reserve your cabin, call 866-488-6020 or 903-567-6020 They are reserved for Thursday the 16th through Sunday the 19th. Please let them know if you will arrive Thursday or Friday night. A $125.00 deposit is due at the time you make your reservation, with the balance due when you check in.
The cut off date for making your reservation is May 28th! Make reservations after that date at the risk of not getting a cabin.
The cabin numbers reserved for us are 10, 22, 24, 25, 77, 88, 89, 90, 92 and 102. #s 22, 24, and 25 are called Executive Cabins with lofts, they are $185.00/night and sleep 4-6 people; #s 10, 88, 89, 90 and 102 are Standard Cabins with lofts, they are $165.00/night and sleep up to 4 people; # 92 is a Standard Cabin without a loft and # 77 is handicapped accessible, those are both $150.00/night and sleep up to four. All the lofts, with the exception of #22, are only three feet high and each have two twin mattresses; the loft in #22 is five feet tall. Each cabin has a queen size bed and a queen size sleeper sofa.
No cars are allowed at the cabins, with the exception of the handicapped cabin. You can either use their concierge service to get to and from the cabins or rent a golf cart for $40.00/day. If you want to rent a golf cart it was suggested that you reserve one when making your reservation.
Extra cost included are a $5.00 resort fee (they normally charge this per day, but are only charging us a one time fee); Internet fee is $5.00/day.
Looking forward to seeing everyone in October!
Howdy, Lady. Nice to see you too! I've been up to my eyeballs in real life lately, so I've been pretty scarce. I'll be at the Shoot, though. I wouldn't miss it for the world.
Very much anticipating meeting you, Sir.
HaHa!!
;-)
I see that Serious Cat takes her guard duties very seriously.
Just hope it was a 5 Vegas Gold..or a Series “A” ashes.......
I am looking forward to seeing you all again.
Pen, maybe you could show me how to make your killer deviled eggs?

TOL, I think am going to take your advice and my wife and I will fly out and rent an vehicle to complete our journey. This means special consideration for transporting firearms and have decided will not make this trip with firearms. My Better Half hates riding long distances and she and I admire those that will be traveling via vehicle. We are looking forward to this time with everyone. I’ll not bringing any show and tell except my Better Half this time and Grandchildren will hold down the fort at home.
I know somewhere around here is the thread for helping with the food on range day. Would you direct me into the area of the food thread? I did a quick scan of this thread and missed it. Am going back to take another look (slowly) but if you have the information quickly, it will save me another look and see. My Better Half and I want to help.
LR ... dang had to look for ages ... I need to borrow that child for my finding LR.
Don’t worry, you guys. There will be plenty of ordnance for you and Mrs. Illegals to fire.
The TCMS people are generous and friendly, just like most FReepers.
Bryan and I drive because we bring everything we have, all pistols, long guns, and ammo
for each. Nothing worse than coming home and finding it ransacked and missing the guns.
Oh btw ... may bring a Daughter and Son-In-Law. Yet to talk it over with them yet. Son-In-Law may want to drive though. If Son-In-Law wants to drive; Better Half and I are going to ask if can pay for their plane tickets. Son-In-Law hates riding with me while I drive and screaming from the back seat. I’ll remind him.
I’ll pay for rides for my Better Half and I and maybe a Daughter and Son-In-Law. May need a total of four to six rides over the course of time. My wallet will open for rides and I do not take NO to be an answer.
Well.. then you'll need to keep track of who rented which.. 'cause I sure ain't. ;-)
LOL, I’ll need a phone number.
I’m not going but what a gorgeous place.
Have fun.
