Nellie,
If you are gonna give Wallaby intsructions, give him some he can follow.
Course he's gonna have to much fun.
He's gonna be shooting his navys.
He'll be shooting with Miss Clancey and Co.
He's hanging onto the bottom of the world.

Wallaby, hope it comes just short of enough fun to kill you. Enjoy yourself.

So I have one question, if this was a re-make of last year's Mule Camp...who got the golf ball bonus! :rofl

Nellie Blue
04-16-2006, 03:39 PM
And who got the bonus for not talking throughout the stage? By the way...I didn't get either one! :rofl

Clancy
04-16-2006, 05:50 PM
Nellie, i got both the golf ball and the no talking bonus

Kate, my camera was playing up...Hopefully we will get more pics for you i think Wobbly has more... No costume contest, but everyone still dressed cowboy, some did get all done up, but we didnt do anything this year for costuming.Sorry. We had a spit roast dinner and a cowboy(moives, guns & gear, general, Civil War) trivia night which was enjoyed by everyone, much to our surprise everyone was very close playing that only one point separated each of the teams. Constable Nelson (Trooper)used snippets from movies for "what movie is this category" he did very good.

There was only 4 main people in our club that did most of the work, we have to rely on other shooters to help, and there is always a bunch of people willing to stand up and help , which we are all really grateful for, without them our job would have been more tiring.

We also split the shooters into Yanks and Rebels (i was a rebel), we had the 2Generals one was Beuregard (sp?)i think and i cant remember the other one.Anyway they chose their army's and we all were given confederate or union bandanas to wear all weekend. Once the scoring was completed we then sorted out the yanks and rebels based on their overall total times.... Unfortunately the South did not rise again....But we all had a great time

Wallaby Jack

I didn't get the goof ball bonus..... (but Constable Nelson did....3 times, tha dang ball kept bouncin' back at him...;))

I had to start whistlin' (very quietly)....... , an' tolt 'em it were piano music :w2

Roland of Gilead (Mr.Texas Rose of Gilead) carried a sign that he held up when he missed..... it said "Darn!" on one side and "Oops!" on the other........ he used them both, after revolvers and after rifle. :D:rofl

We did have a bit of funnnnnn

That is too funny!! That is the stage that my posse started a betting pool about how far into the stage I'd get before I said something!!! So, I fooled them all, I stuck a shotgun shell in my mouth and kept it there.....made it thru the whole stage and got the bonus!! :gg :gg

Nellie Blue
04-16-2006, 06:52 PM
I was quiet the whole stage then said the wrong line at the end so I didn't get the bonus.

Sweet Violet
04-17-2006, 01:18 PM
Wow!!! Those were some very wonderful pictures!!! Thank you both! Glad you had a good time!

Golf Ball Bonus
After you shoot a very fast stage and you adrendaline is REALLY pumping...off the clock after your last gun, you pick up a "rock" (a golf ball) and throw it at a pistol target...if you hit the target it's a 10 second bonus. You've got to remember...your adrendaline is REALLY pumping...you either throw it into the ground before the target or you throw it WAY past the target.

The significance of this bonus is that way early in Mule Camp history (maybe even the 1st Mule Camp...someone correct me if I'm wrong), they had a stage where you had to throw 10 rocks at 10 targets and if you missed the target it was a miss. (Each stage came from an an actual shootbook from each year of the 10 year history of Mule Camp...last year was the 10th Anniversary.)

No Talking Bonus
You said a specific line at the beginning and a specific line at the end and you could not say a PEEP in between those lines...so if you were able to do that, you would get a 10 second bonus. That one was from the previous years shoot book, I believe (either 2003 or 2004), cuz I remember Fannie telling the story of putting a shotgun shell in her mouth to keep from talking before I shot Mule Camp last year. Everyone had seen a photo of it in her mouth and wanted to know why she was carrying ammo in an oriface when it was against the rules to pull ammo from those! :rofl

Nellie,
Thank you, I now understand imperfectly.
I'd have better luck throwing a golf ball than hitting it with a golf club.

Now I know that the shotshell wasn't a "bodily oriface" carried illegal, gamer, reload...(not that I thought it was anyway :o)

The world is now back in equelibrium......... thank goodness !
