A date and cabin locations have finally been chosen.
This year’s 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!
am going to vote in the affirmative for the kitteh.
Was going to beg but another kitteh said should not and out of respect for the kittehs will digress. Beg ... Beg ... Lick your hand ... Beg.
The whole event is a major awkward drag anyway.
I wouldn’t recommend it.
Plus when them crackers start shooting them guns it gets real scary and loud.
My condolences to both you and Eaker on the passing of Kitty. I know how much you both must miss her.
I’ve had several dogs and a couple of cats, and I still miss each and every one of them, which is why I don’t plan on having any more.
in that case am not going to miss this one. Better Half loves boring and loud.
Can I come? I’m sure I could find me a scary lookin’ black ARGlock48 in 13 gauge.
Maybe I could hitch a ride with Laz?
5.56mm
You're certainly welcome but illegal salt machineweapons like that will likely run everyone off in terror.
So a I guess my plasma rifle in 20 mega watts is out of the question?
5.56mm
Not if it doesn’t look all scary.
If I remember correctly from Quake and Halo, those aren’t too loud.
I vote for the Minute Man.
When can we order?
I like the Minute man one!!
Is good to see you again ... I’ve been here all along as have you. You’ll see a way. I’ve heard a calling. There is a way. Don’t doubt, please.

Minute Man
I like the Minuteman, but I think I’m gonna vote for the six shooters because it’s more like Texas.
Thanks!
They are both good very good. I’ll vote for Minute Man. Great thread. BUMP for Texas Cowboy and all of the attendees, past and this year.
Thanks, see y’all there.
