  • The Wit & Wisdom of Doc Holliday
    ® Cowboy Action Shooting Stages & Scenarios 26 August 2012 The Wit & Wisdom Of Doc Holliday The Ten CAS Commandments 1. Thou shalt not allow thy muzzle to point at any person! Thou shalt keep thy muzzle pointed downrange when drawing or holstering from a Cross-Draw holster. Thou shalt not sweep thy neighbor, nor thy neighbor's wife, nor thy neighbor's ass (nor any other portion of his anatomy!) Safety! First, Last, and Always. 2. Thou shalt abide by all SASS Safety Rules, and thou shalt have FUN! 3. Protect thine eyes and ears at all times. Spectators shall do the same. 4. Except when shooting, loading, or unloading, thou shalt keep thy pistols holstered. 5. Thou shalt not close the action of thy rifle until thou loadest it at the Load Station. Thou shalt open thy rifle's action immediately after completing the rifle portion of the stage. Thou shalt not close thy shotgun except while holding it in thy hands at the firing line. 6. Suffer not thy gun to fall upon the ground, for a dropped gun is “Dead”. A loaded dropped gun is dead, and shall not rise again this day. Only the Range Officer may retrieve or pick up a dropped gun. NOTE: An empty long gun carefully staged against a barricade, wall, or other prop that subsequently slips and falls shall not result in any penalty. 7. There is no Rule #7. 8. Suffer not thine ammunition to fall upon the ground. Dropped ammo is "Dead", and may only be retrieved by the brass pickers, after the shooter has completed the stage.

  • Doc Holliday by Robert Hilliard
    Doc Holliday By Robert Hilliard Be honest with yourself. When you think about the outlaws and gunfighters of the old west, which one comes to mind first? Well, for me, it has always been Doc Holliday. Here is a man that came into this world with the best intentions, but ended up contracting a disease that not only hit him early in his life, but shaped the type of person he would be until his dying day. John Henry “Doc” Holliday was born on August 14, 1851 in Griffin, Georgia, to Henry Burroughs Holliday and Alice Jane Holliday. He grew up a Southern gentleman and at the age of 21 obtained his Dental degree and moved to St. Louis, Missouri to work with a classmate and setup his practice. Shortly after, Doc was diagnosed with tuberculosis and carried the disease throughout the remainder of his life. Holliday moved around frequently setting up practices in Atlanta, Dallas and points in between. Everywhere he went, his disease would eventually end his practice. Finally, while trying to practice as a dentist in Dallas, Texas, Doc found he had another skill that would aid him in making a living. He became skilled as a gambler. Over the years, Doc found himself engaged in fights and gunfights that would land him in jail for a short period of time. However, Doc managed to gain a reputation, not only as a skilled gambler and gunfighter, but as a person who lived as if today where his last day on earth. Knowing that tuberculosis would eventually do him in, Doc Holliday lived the rest of his days as if he had no fear.
