 Howdy!

Gussyed-up in their finest attire, local cowboys & cowgirls mount their horses to relive the days of the Old West! They’re firing blanks, so nobody gets hurt (except them dirty, low-down balloons!)

Cowboy Mounted Shooting is the fastest, family horse sport around!  

 Riders shoot balloons from horseback, testing their speed, accuracy & control.

Rangemasters run matches in 4-6 stages; each stage uses one of 50+ courses; each course has five “random” (skill) & five “rundown” (speed) targets.

.45 caliber single-action revolvers use specially made blanks. Riders must change guns while riding in order to engage all 10 targets. We always prohibit “real” bullets & alcohol at competitions!

Run times average 30 seconds (max 60), after we add penalties. Low time wins!

Riders compete in divisions with special rules for younger riders. Winners have the opportunity to advance. Overall winners take home bragging rights (until next time!)
