Of course the real foundation for my website is my long-time attraction with the cowboys of the old west that I met as a young boy on Saturday afternoon at the movies in a small town in the mid-west where I grew up. My introduction to the sport of cowboy action shooting fueled that attraction, and I could re-live my boyhood fascination with the old west. You will hear many other cowboy action shooters give you the same story.

This physical website, however, was a 2003 Christmas present from my son-in-law, Bill, who was aware of my new-found interest in cowboy action shooting. He was assisted in setting up this website for me by his friend Rusty. In addition to the initial set-up, Bill gave me a number of lessons in webpage programming to help me develop this site further. I thank Bill and Rusty for starting me on a very satisfying voyage over the years .
