Gunslingers from Arizona, South Dakota, Colorado and Nebraska joined the Wyoming posse members to have a great shoot-out Sat Aug 9th. Short periods of drizzle lowered the fire danger and softened the grass for the range bulls meandering about. Tom Horn history has some folks murmuring.Sling'n Lead spewed beer suds all over the prairie right before his beer can hit the ground to gain the fastest time of the Wyoming Single Action Shooters annual Top Gun shoot. The time margin was merely 3/10 second from second fastest time put in by Knight Creek Ranger who stood in awe after his beer can was broken and his beer was all over the prairie. Sassy Cue was quick and steady to get the fastest ladies time. Sassy also lead the Sybille Creek Shooters team to win the Governor Jim Gerringer Award for the second year in a row. The J.R. Dalton Traveling Trophy Award was won by Morning Glory shooting Lady 49'r. Side Match results: Speed Rifle - Soda Creek Jack - 5.36 sec. Speed Pistol - Knight Creek Ranger - 6.96 sec.
