Shootout at Old Magdalena
2010 SASS New Mexico State Championship
Hosted by the Magdalena Trail Drivers
September 17, 18 & 19, 2010
This year's shootout was the SASS 2010 New Mexico State Championship of Cowboy Action Shooting! Perfect weather, a great Saurday feast - and
cool, soothing melon slices to finish off Sunday's 6 stages. Visitors came from FL, NC, WY, AZ, CA, TX, Great Britain and of course - New Mexico!
A 4+ stage Wild Bunch and Long Range matchs started off the weekend on Friday. That evening was a campfire get-together featuring teams competing in "Are you Smarter than a 5th Grade Cowboy?" Talk about a great evening.
Saturday was six stages - shot by the four posses - at the newly painted and fixed up fronts of Old Magdalena. Saturday evening dinner was pit smoked beef and pork - done in the traditional New Mexico style of a big hole with hot coals - covered for 24 hours -YUMMY!!
The Magdalena Trail Drivers want to extend their thank-yous to all our sponsors, and to the vendors who braved the weekend to show off their terrific stuff. And a big thank-you to all the shooters who came this year – 80+ in all!
