Because everyone had such a great time at the last shoot we are anxious for the next one.
The date for the 8th Annual TCMS shoot will be June 8th, 2013 and will be held at Dietz Gun Shop and Shooting Range, in New Braunfels, TX. Providing we get the OK from Mr. Dietz – I will call him this week to discuss our coming to the range.
Staying in the Pelican Bay cottages this year was a stroke of genius, so we will again be staying in cottages. The cottage pick for this shoot is the Cypress Creek Cottages, in Wimberley, TX. There are only twelve cottages at this place, and as of this writing 7 of them have been reserved. NOTE: They require full payment at the time the reservations are made. Wimberley also has some very nice hotels in the area in the event all the cottages get rented.
Making it a three & a half day weekend will be the plans for many of us, that way we can enjoy the area and have lots of porch time.
The Friday night dinner & Saturday breakfast places have not yet been decided. There is still plenty of time to figure out those details. Saturday after the shoot lunch will be provided by our own chef ~ cpdiii (Thanks Charlie!). Suggestions for the Saturday night meal are more than welcome.
My thanks to mylife, penelopesire, LuvW, BuckeyeTexan and NYTexan for their help in getting these plans going.
I know folks who shoot at Lone Star and they have nothing but good things to say about the range!!
Matt Billingsley who started the place was tragically killed in an accident out there last year while operating heavy equipment. He had just been married and his wife is trying to stick it out and continue what he started.
Good call on going to Lone Star.
Nobody likes tannerite!
Yeah, but you were...Tardy! ;)
It looks like a decent place, and the person I talked to on the phone (John) was very helpful. The only negative thing I can say about the place is they suck at returning email. ;-)
And Gus McCrae don’t tolerate no dawdling service. LOL
LOL! Nice catch, BB!
Not to mention that Lockhart is a BBQ Mecca: Let me list.

Holy cow!
Chisholm Trail has the best prices in Texas!
Yeah, that’s really my favorite place down there. By far the best bang for the buck. And the peach cobbler is very very good!!!
Hey, I might actually get to go to this one!! I think I can get to Lone Star in about 45 mins. But I’ve never been there.
WOOT!!!
Well, I hope you do make it.
We always have a blast.
Only 13 hours away, for us.
Who knows...?
Thanks for everything, Mom. You really know how to wrangle them dogies! You’re the backbone of the Shoot. It’s great that you take no rudeness and are willing to move venues if someone gives you guff.
I am so looking forward to seeing everyone again.
That would be awesome.
Black’s is gooood!
Thanks for the list dave. In the event there is a burn ban, we now have a plan B.
And there is always Luling City Market just down the road. They don’t have a web site, but you get the idea from this TX monthly post.

You can’t go wrong with any of these places.
Kreuz (pronounced Krite’s) is the most expensive if I remember correctly.
But O may veto the final bill, since it also prohibits transferring GitMo detainees from being moved to the US.
To paraphrase Woodrow F. Call, "I hate rude behavior in a person, I won't tolerate it"
Being rude to Mrs. Mom can be hazardous to your health and financial well being. :)
I am looking forward to June 8th! charlie
I wouldn't mess with her and I'm kinfolks.
