WHAT ARE WE????
Relive the OLD WEST!
Cowboy action shooting is a multi-faceted shooting sport in which
contestants compete with firearms (authentic or replicas) typical of
those used in taming of the Old West. This is fun shooting, not
precision, target shooting! and no fast draw. But you might
want to be good with a knife and lucky with cards.
