End of Trail, 2008 By Rattlesnake Blake
Howdy pards, this here is ole Rattlesnake a’scribblin to ya. We just got home from EOT, and it was a fun match to shoot. I recommend that you try to go at least once to experience it. The targets were up close and big. There were a lot of pistol knockdown targets that were the standard size. Those targets were fun to shoot, and they put an extra factor in the match.
Soiled Dove won the coveted “White Buffalo” for shooting a clean match. Yours truly, had one miss, and therefore had to listen to Dusty Lonestar enlighten every posse that shot on the stage we were RO’ing during the main match. There were lots of vendors there, and hopefully Foard County News and Sassy Schoolmarm got everything they were looking for along with purchases they had not even thought of.
Kentucky Tom and Dusty Lonestar both were awarded Regulator Badges, and we had a great time celebrating the event. We were rewarded that evening, back at the trailers, when Tom came out in shorts and tank top sporting his new Regulator badge (and shining it). He even had a second (or was that a third) beer that evening. I lost count after my ??? glasses of wine.
Every evening a group of us who were RO’ing got together at the camp site and relaxed revisiting the day’s events. Even though he didn’t RO (He did get to shoot with the RO’s.), we allowed Foard County to join our festivities. We were also surprised to see Southern Outlaw along with his family at the match. We had just seen him at Mule Camp and didn’t know that he was coming to EOT. Southern Outlaw shot the match, and made a good accounting of himself.
Even though it is a sizable expense, if you have a camper, I would highly recommend that you camp on the grounds. The experience of getting together in the evening, after all of the shooting is done for the day, is an experience that you will surely remember for a long time to come. I did forget to say that Kentucky Tom won a buckle for the Team Match, and Soiled Dove received a buckle for her class in the Main Match. Congratulations to all of our pards from Louisiana who came home with a buckle and/or a “White Buffalo”.
I missed being with you all at the June match, but I am looking forward to getting together with everyone in July. EOT was great, but getting back to where everything is green and where you can drink the air is wonderful. We will miss our pards at EOT, but we sure will be glad to back with our Bayou Bounty Hunter pards in July. May the Good Lord take a’shinin to ya, an remember to keep yore powder dry.
