As your Rio Salado Club President and Territorial Governor, I am here to gather comments, criticisms, needs and your proposed rule changes and communicate them to SASS Headquarters. I will also keep the Club updated on rule changes from SASS. Your RSCASS staff will continue to encourage the growth of Cowboy Action Shooting and our great Club through monthly practices and New Shooter Orientations.
As members, you also represent SASS and our Club. So please encourage your shooting friends to give Cowboy Shooting a try. All the info required to start is on our website. I encourage every club member to read the new Shooters Handbook, which was updated in January 2022. It contains past rule changes and a new format which is easier to follow. You will find rule clarifications by the ROC at http://www.oowss.com/ROCornerIndex.htm.
If you have any questions on rules in the SASS Shooters Handbook, please ask me. If I don’t have the immediate answer, I can find it for you.
President & Territorial Governor Update December 2024:
Greetings Cowboys and Cowgirls,
We would like to congratulate Hoopsnake LaVache on becoming our newest Rio Ranger! The Club greatly appreciates all his past contributions and we look forward to his help and dedication to our Club in the future.
Please note on our home page that we have created new Stage Conventions that are in affect for all matches going forward. Take the time to read them and know them. We are trying to give shooters more freedom of choice on the stages so this is a beginning. Our Match Director has also updated the stage writing to a simpler and more concise format for all to understand.
We had a great Annual match and I thank everyone who came out to shoot with us. Also thank you to all the Volunteers that helped and the people who gave us prize donations.
Volunteering is the only way we can run our matches. If anyone is interested in helping out your Club in any way, please let us know via email or see us out on the range. We welcome any and all help. And for all those that help setup and breakdown matches, Thank you again for your support.
There will be a new Shooter’s Handbook coming out in Jan on the SASS website. I encourage everyone to read it and know it!
Have a fun winter and a Merry Christmas!
See you at the next match,
Be safe and shoot straight!
