Here are the shooting matches (so far).

Prairie Dog Shoot - One shot @ 200 yards, cold bore, any rifle, any caliber, any sights, any position, in 60 seconds from fire command ('cause Prairie Dogs don't stick around forever!), at a 1/2" orange dot on a life-size prairie dog silhouette that YOU have identified by writing your name on or next to it.

DGR Shoot - Any rifle, .40 caliber and up, iron sights only, two 8" targets fired at, one shot each, in order of farthest to closest, starting at 35 yards, then 15 yards. NO light loads. Factory load equivalent only, This will favor double guns as far as speed, but accuracy is what is important.

It doesn't help if you miss really, really fast. shocked laugh

Enemy At The Gates Sniper Shoot - Single Shot .22lr rifle @ 50 yards, prone position with or without sling or for those who can't get into prone position and back up again, sitting in a chair with shooting sticks, scoped or iron sights, at six 5" miniature IDPA steel silhouettes, then a 3" diameter steel "stop plate" to win. Two shooters compete at a time, single elimination, first one to knock down all six of their silhouettes and their stop plate wins that round and shoots until they lose or they beat all other shooters.

.22lr Shoot - Any rifle, any sights, any position, 100 yards, tightest five shot group with one round REQUIRED to be in the orange center dot. If no one gets a round in the dot, then closest group to the dot wins. Time limit of 90 seconds for the five shots.

BPCR Shoot - 12" target, three rounds, barrel sights only, any position, 200 yards, in one minute. Smallest group wins.

The "Kaywoodie" Shoot grin - Any vintage military rifle, any caliber, iron sights only, military issue or equivalent loads, three shots, off-hand (slings permitted), in one minute at 100 yards.

Spaghetti Western Practice Shoot - 15 yards, any Centerfire Revolver or auto-pistol, iron sights only, five shots, one-handed, beginning with the handgun in the shooters hand and at his/her side, at five beverage cans on a log, in 30 seconds. Ties will be decided by a shoot-off consisting of five cans on a log, five shots in 30 seconds at 50 yards. grin (Thought y'all were going to get off easy, didn't ya?)

I need ideas on a "Kids Shoot", too. Any thoughts? Maybe a closer "Enemy at the Gates" shoot with balloons as targets?

We can have a Traditional Archery Shoot here in the yard at anytime. 4" balloons at 20 yards, pick the color of balloon BEFORE you release the arrow. grin
Ties will be decided by shooting an apple off of the opponent's head. First shooter will be determined by a coin toss. shocked

Or, shoot-off will be at golf ball size balloons at 20 yards. Your choice. grin
