The original Caprock & Calhoun Cattle Company shooting stage was constructed by Bill Stout (alias Will Penny), Ralph Daniel (Caprock Kid) and
George Calhoun (Circuit Judge). These three early members of the Tejas Caballeros Cowboy
Shooting Club, designed the stage as a 16 foot
by 8 foot platform with a tin roof and 5/4"
decking for the floor. The back of the stage (the
firing line) was a wall with a center doorway
and windows left and right of the doorway. This
was a time in the sport when long guns were
staged vertically, so there were no shelves to
stage your guns. The ends and front of the
stage was rail. You entered the stage from the
front and exited out the right end of the stage.
The three donated all materials and provided the labor to build the stage. The original sign,
which now graces the front of the new
Determination reiteration of the Caprock
& Calhoun Cattle Company, was designed
and produced by hand by Circuit Judge.
The stage was originally constructed
at the Cab's second shooting range on FM
967 east of Driftwood. The club had
moved from its original shooting location
that was across from the Salt Lick to the
location east of Driftwood. As the club
founder Paul Sherrill (El Malo) and his
brother had purchased the land on which
the second range was constructed the
members thought the land would be the forever home for the Cab's.
Alas, the ever encroaching movement of people into the rural country side and the
subdivision of adjacent ranches into housing developments eventually required that the Cabs
make its second move to the club’s third range on Flat Creek Ranch northwest of Dripping Springs.
The Caprock & Calhoun Cattle Company sign
was saved along with a piece of Cab history.
Fortunately, this time around and now at its
fourth shooting range, the Cabs indeed have a
forever home guaranteed with a 99 year lease and
a ranch deed restricted against future subdivision.
The Caprock & Calhoun Cattle Company #3 is
home at last in Determination, Texas.
