Stages may not be shot in the order they are presented on this webpage.

Stage 1

"Smokin' Them Out!"
From
"True Grit"


Ned Pepper and his gang expected to arrive shortly looking for a change of horses and a place to spend the night. You've told Mattie Ross and that Texas Jaypopper you intend to let them get into the cabin and shoot the last one through the door to show them you mean business. But Ned is suspicious and the Jaypopper starts shooting before they are inside. You do your best to dehorse as many as you can.

Ammo Count:

Rifle -10 rounds
Pistol - 10 rounds
Shotgun - 4+ rounds

To start the timer say your line "Damn that Texan!" (need to get proper line)

With shotgun shoot the four shotgun targets left to right.

With your rifle shoot the KD to release the swinger. Shoot the swinger to drop the weight. Five second bonus for each claybird broken. Shoot the KD to release the roller. Shoot the roller to release the weight. Five second bonus for each claybird broken. Shoot the six KD's with the remaining rifle rounds.

Move to position two and shoot handgun targets in a Nevada Sweep from the left changing handguns when needed.

Stage 2

"Rustler Rhapsody"



The whole gang of "bad guys" have you surrounded. Not wanting to have an unfair advantage you warn them that by having you surrounded they will shoot each other when they begin drawing. They move to a more favorable position but you also must be fair and warn them that if they draw their guns you will have to shoot the guns out of their hands. They find this funny. After the gunplay is finished they are all left holding their gun hand and groaning. Their grins are replaced with grimaces.

Ammo Count:

Rifle - 10 rounds
Pistol - 10 rounds
Shotgun - 4+ rounds

Rifle and shotgun staged at position 1.

To start the clock say your line, "You've Been Warned!"

Stage your rifle, grab your shotgun and move to position 2. Shoot the two shotgun targets twice, no double taps. Stage your shotgun in the rack and with your handguns knock down the rest of the KD's. When all the KD's are down shoot the small spinning target. No penalty for misses and a 5 second bonus for each time the spinner does a complete flip. Only targets left on the Texas Star or KD's not knocked down will be counted as misses.
