My wife, Frilly Knickers, and I are experienced Cowboy Action
shooters who will be moving to the Austin area as soon as our house
sells in Iowa. Both my wife and I have been active participating as
posse marshalls and during our annual event, Gunfire in the Hills, as
stage drivers. We are both SASS ROII trained and I am a certified RSO
through NRA. We may make a trip down to Columbus sometime to see your
club!

I would love to get more information about this
seemingly interesting place and group. I work with kids in Houston and I
just think it would be something that they would enjoy seeing. Please
can you forward me any information that I may show. I work at a
Christian Sport Camp in the summer and we always have trouble finding
interesting places to take the kids. This would be fun and educational,I
think!
Thanks,

THSS Members,
I was one of the new visitors to your Sunday (08/20/2006) shoot at
Gunsmoke. I really enjoyed the visit. Thanks to everyone for
making me feel welcome and introducing me to the sport of Cowboy Action
Shooting. Looks like lots of fun and I just can't imagine a
friendlier bunch of people. Hope to see you again. BTW, the
website is great!

the blank cartridge through the barrel, man v man. It still gets the
adrenaline running!!! Love the competition.

I am very impressed by your website and club. I have e-mailed a link to
your website to match directors here in Florida and one in Colorado I
used to shoot with. Your buildings you have in your "wild west
town" look incredible. Shooting at your club must be like stepping
back in time and feeling like you're there. If I'm ever heading to TX
I'm going to want to visit your club for a shoot. Great Job Guys! Your
website is a lot of fun with all the pictures, music and areas to
explore. I hope SASS is aware of all your efforts. Keep up the good
work.

I would like to join at some point. I don't have the required firearms
yet. I saw the requirements about the two pistols, and the rifle and
shotgun, but do I need the rifle and shotgun in addition to the two
pistols??? Also which pistols are the most favored at the shoots, cap
and ball or cartridge??? I like both! Probably the cartridge model is
less work.

Former member checking when Trailhead was. Your website is great.
My husband, Tim Graves, and I are former members and were actually
married at a monthly shoot in May 1994. I write with very sad news
for the old timers that were around then. My brother, Butch Balcomb, aka
Thumbless Bill, passed away unexpectedly on Jan. 11, 2006. He was a very
active member for a long time. Butch was a great guy and is going
to be greatly missed by a lot of people. Tim and I are planning on
attending Trailhead this year in honor of Butch - if there is anyone who
remembers my brother, we'd love to share and hear some stories - I bet
there are a bunch of them!

I have only recently getting back into Cowboy Action Shooting. I used to
shoot with the Tejas Pistoleros out of Houston, Texas with my son,
brother, and friends. You really have a wonderful website here to be
proud of. It really takes alot of time and creativity. This website
really gives a newcomer to Cowboy Action Shootin' a real feel for what
it is all about and the safety above all on the range. I hoped to come
visit soon.

What a neat website. My sister lives in Gainesville TX
and my wife and I are coming down to visit her and family 3rd week of
October. Was looking around to see if there's any cowboy shoots when we
woud be there. Columbus is about 6 hours from Gainesville I understand
so probably won't make it. I sure would if I could 'cause the Wild Bunch
has always tweaked my interest. If we can, I would come just to watch.
Maybe next year? depending on gas prices.

We met Linda Hass today at her shop. We were having a Doolittle matted and framed and began to talk with her. this is a well laid out website and we will be there sunday to observe and check out. We have live the mountain man life for nearly nine years in the northwest woods of montana, wood for heat, wood to cook with, reading by kerosene lamps and as for running water, that depended on how fast the kids had to get back to the cabin from the spring (bears and lions).

Hey Miss Linda, you’ve done a great job on our club website.
There are so many parts to it that I find interesting, it will take me
some time to check it all out. I’m especially proud to share it with
potential “Cowboy Action Shooters”! Already, I’ve sent it to my
daughter-in-law’s brother in N.C. so he can get a better understanding
of Cowboy Action.. He will be meeting us in N.C. to attend the shoot
Dogie and I will make at Salisbury, N.C., September 1st – 3rd, The
Uprising at Swearing Creek. It’s the SASS N.C. State Championship.
That should give him a good taste of Cowboy Action Shooting don’t you
think?
Also, I was able to share it today with our friends that visited
Gunsmoke last month. They were so impressed with the facility and all
the fine folks they met.
Thanks so much for your efforts. It’s neat to tell someone about us,
and now to have a website that is so informative and helpful.
Blessings,

I am very proud of this new site. It is put together very well, entertaining and
colorful. Our web-mistresses, Linda Haas, aka, Country Girl Linda and Mamie
Fossett, aka, Carla Boyd have done a tremendous and incredible job with the new
site. They both have spent countless hours working on this new site and one can
tell it was truly a "labor of love". I want to personally thank you
both and want you to know how much you are appreciated.
Every THSS member needs to thank these two very special ladies for all of their
hard work and dedication. These two ladies certainly exemplify the "Cowboy
Spirit"! I know each THSS member will be very proud of this new site and
will enjoy it.

for the previous website. Although it was a very good one when it was created,
it definately was in need of improvement, and more consistant updating. Once
again, thank you for the effort and for upgrading the image of THSS on the web.

Special Thanks to all the THSS members of the
Officers and Board for their help and support while building our new revised
version of THSS.ORG website. A special Thanks, to my
assistant, Mamie Fosset, for asking me to help build then leaving me with it. She
has been and is very supportive. She gathered photos, and articles for history, Wild Bunch
and Herman's story and for checking the Links and
keeping them up to date. Another special thanks is to my long time teck
friend Dixedi that I met on MS Groups>FrontPage Designs. Because
of her, our site is better and much more secure. Last but far from
least, thanks to my sweet husband, Danny Ringo, that freed up my
extra hours, encouraged and supported me through the whole
process.
