Hello the camp!

Event details are here. Hope to see you at Rendezvous!
From Jack “Straight Arrow” Simons:
Several people have already reached out about the Texas Free Trapper fall rendezvous. We are planning it – November 9-12 at our usual site in Shiner, Texas. As we get closer, we’ll send out a flyer.
Got an update from Jack on the next WSB shoot:
We are going to have a WSB shoot this next Saturday, weather permitting. Here’s hoping you and your families have a Happy Thanksgiving, Jack
White Smoke Brigade – Match 191 – November 27, 2021
Shooting begins around 10:00 AM. There will be at least 3 rifle matches. Got any smoothbores just sitting in your closet? Get those flintlocks out and hit a few targets!
For those of you that might not know, the match is $5. We have a quarters shoot for cold bore. Dues are payable for a calendar year and are only $15.00.
Dues not only go towards WSB, but for Texas Free Trappers too. $15.00 for both!
Flintlocks and percussion rifles and pistols, but no modern muzzleloaders please.
We shoot some paper targets along with metal silhouettes. Bring your own water and snacks. There are no toilet facilities on the property.
If you have any questions, please call.

With Christmas upon us you might not be thinking about a rendezvous, but please put on your calendars the Texas Free Trappers XXX Rendezvous in Shiner set for February 6-9, 2020. Attached are the flyer and map. RSVPs really help us with communication to those planning on attending.
Wishing you and your families a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year,
Jack Simons
Update on the event from Jack:
If you plan on attending the TFT Rendezvous in Shiner in two weeks, please RSVP . . . call Joe Wolf directly at 830-935-3121 or Rusty Hathaway 512-422-0377. An RSVP is mandatory for entrance to the ranch. Jack
More details on the event can be seen on the Events page.
The TFT Rendezvous for February 21-24 is a GO! If you haven’t contacted me or Rusty Hathaway or Joe Wolf that you are attending, please do so ASAP. We need to have your cell number so we can come up to the gate to let you in or if there are any issues.
I’m glad we aren’t in a drought in South Texas, but the rain got the best of us again for the TFT Rendezvous. Almost the same conditions as last fall. The TFT Rendezvous is being moved to February 21-24th. As before, please RSVP. We appreciate all those that replied and gave us their cell numbers. Get the word out!

Sorry for the extremely late notice. We are having a TFT rendezvous February 8-10, in Shiner. Attached are the flyer and map. Take note that we are asking for an RSVP to either the Booshway or Segundo or you can email me and I’ll pass it along.
Because of gate security on the ranch and the ever potential for a downpour, an RSVP will ensure folks can get in the gate or we can pass along news of a cancellation. Upon arrival at the site, call the numbers on the flyer and someone will come down to open the gate. We apologize to those that were notified too late last fall when we got rained out. The ranch land just won’t support vehicles and we don’t want to go “mudding” through private property.
Hope to see you there, Jack Simons
