Greetings all,
Scorch's
memorial was back in October. He was an avid muzzle loader
and gun collector. Mountain Mule and Bloody Muzzle have assisted in the
liquidation of his collection. They still have many rifles and
suppies. If you are interested, please contact Scott Drake at
(970)635-9544 or Ron Ring at (970)416-5784. All proceeds go
to his widow, Nancy Riddell.
See you at the Squirrel Rifle Shoot this weekend!

Colorado Squirrel Rifle Shoot 2008
This year's squirrel rifle shoot will be a hoot! We're hoping to
see lot's of folks at the range on April 26th and 27th for another
dynamic success. We always have a wonderful time with club members and
visitors a like. Mark your calendars and plan on coming out for the fun
and fellowship. We're collecting great prizzes and expect everyone to
win. Bring your friends, family and good spirits; camp with us and
bring the whole family, dogs are welcome too!
The 2007 Colorado Squirrel Rifle Shoot was held April 28th and 29th at
the Buckhorn Skinner's range. The event was a huge success with 50
registered shooters and many visitors. Special thanks to Captain
Splinter for his leadership and organizational skills. We also owe much
thanks to Mountain Mule for successfully obtaining a vast number of
prizes from Skinners, venders, suppliers and just lots of generous folks. The
Buckhorn Skinners solutes Scott Drake (Mountain Mule) for a job
well done and much appreciated.
This year's events included shooting,
the mountain man walk, camping, pot-luck eating, primitive
entertainment and of course, lots of visiting and story telling.
Everyone was a winner and some folks were just darn lucky or real good and
did real swell!
Please visit the club photo album and see the many
pictures.
Last years event had nearly 100 folks come visit and 73 registered
shooters! The 2006 Squirrel Rifle Shoot event was one of the most
successful in recent years. Thanks to all the Skinners who worked
hard to make the event a huge success. We had many proud winners
and everyone had a great time! Thanks to the generosity of many folks
and the coordinated efforts of Mountain Mule and Captain Many
Hides everyone got prizes and some got two! Splinter crafted some
mighty fine trophies that are sure to adorn some walls at home or work
for several competitors.
The Squirrel Rifle Shoot is a great event as are many in the region
that bring folks from near and far. We appreciated the many folks who
drove up from the Colorado Springs to support the club and muzzle
loading. We had a fellow from Michigan who enjoyed our friendly welcome
and will come again in the future. Also, many thanks to our landlord
Pat, who always is so gracious in welcoming the many travelers from near
and far. We’re already planning next year’s event and will be ready to
see you all once again. Please see the 2006 photo album and enjoy
the smiles and celebration!

We're off and running for the new year. The next shoot is 4/20/08 at
our range. Captain Hammer Hand will be hosting the shoot. Be ready to demonstrate
skills and shoot a target too. I'm ready for spring so, let's hope for a nice day!
Come to breakfast and meet some of the Skinners at Widow McCoys
Restaurant in Loveland about 7:30 am. We get things going about
10:00 am on the range. Please check the map for directions.
Monthly shoots are real fun, so bring yourself out and enjoy the
Buckhorn Skinner's range and members. Our range is in a beautiful
canyon off County Road 27 south of
Masonville. See you there!
