🤠 OCTOBER EDITION — 5 DOGS CREEK HOWLER 🐾

 

🌵Howdy, Folks of 5 Dogs Creek!

As the autumn winds start whistlin’ through the canyon and the tumbleweeds roll a little slower, it’s time to saddle up for the October edition of your favorite frontier dispatch: The 5 Dogs Creek Howler!

This month, the prairie’s buzzin’ with talk of the most rootin’-tootin’ showdown this side of the Pecos…

BUDDY LOVE’S GUNFIGHTER THROWDOWN

October 4th & 5th, 2025

Steel yourself for two days of grit, glory, and gunsmoke as pistoleros from across the territory descend on 5 Dogs Creek for Buddy Love’s legendary “Gunfighter Throwdown.” Whether you have shot gunfighter style before or are wanting to try it for the first time without feeling like the town fool, this match is for you. (Don’t worry, if you don’t want to shoot gunfighter style, you can always shoot your prefered sass style.)

So polish your boots, dust off your hat, and get ready to holler louder than a coyote at moonrise.

Stay wild, stay kind, and keep your powder dry.
Until next time, this is your telegraph operator, Whiskey T.F Bottles, signing off with a tip of the hat and a wink to the west.

🪶 “May your trails be crooked, winding, and lead to the most interesting people.

September Match Scores

Good morning, fine folks of 5 Dogs Creek!

I hope you’re all well-rested and made it home safely after this weekend’s September Back-to-School Match, brilliantly crafted by none other than Gunpowder ‘N Grace.

The stages were a true test—unique, challenging, occasionally frustrating—but above all, fun. Every shooter earned an “A” for effort, and most walked away with a gold star for their outstanding attitude.

When the final shot echoed and the gear was packed away, a few sharp shooters rose to the top, untouched by the academic gauntlet.
