Outfitting the Cowboys and Their Lady Shooters
 |
All
THSS members are encouraged to be in costume when shooting and
attending club functions. It is in the "SPIRIT"
of our club to do so. It is also "THE COWBOY
WAY." We have one rule. Shooters must wear
boots and hat. We dress period "Old West" (1860 - 1899) or "Movie Westerns," s (John Wayne, Marshall Matt Dillon, Roy Rogers, The Lone Ranger, US History, Civil War, etc.) as much as possible. (in major matches it is required.) Sorry, but modern "Billy Bob's" Western doesn't fit in the theme. |

We do not want to forget the lady shooters. They may be
Annie
Oakley, Miss Kitty, Scarlett O'Hara, etc. We realize that it may take time to get your complete outfit
together, so we are patient and helpful. For some shopping leads check out Our Clothes under Links.

There is no limit on how simple or elaborate apparel
can be.
The ladies may be the working cowgirls, the prairie woman, farmers wife with feed sack dresses, the Victorian fancy dresses with hats and parasols, to the saloon girls. Some are more colorful and some are more subdued.
The only exception to this rule is during our August shoot
when everyone is encouraged to wear Hawaiian outfits which may
include grass skirts and shorts. Boots and hats are still
required. It make for a really silly fun
shoot.
