SO YOU WANT TO BE A COWBOY?

ATTEND OUR NEW SHOOTER CLINIC

All new shooters must demonstrate the ability to safely engage a course of fire before they compete.  This includes intermediate or above riding abilities, an understanding of safe gun handling and shooting practices, and an understanding of the rules of Cowboy Mounted Shooting. 

Attending an Outlaws New Shooter Clinic will take you a long ways towards meeting these requirements and more! 

BREAKING YOUR HORSE TO GUNFIRE

Obviously we can't speak for every horse, but most take to the shooting with the help of other gun broke horses.  We use the herd instinct of the horse to our advantage.  We surround green horses with experienced horses when we first start shooting.  New horses usually look around and realize their buddies are not alarmed with the shooting and quickly settle down.

There are some things to do with your horse before the clinic that will make it more of a success for you both! Please work with your horse and have them neck reining and working off of your leg. While this is not a necessity to participate in a clinic it will assure that you and your horse get the most out of the clinic!

WHY YOU SHOULD ATTEND THE CLINIC

Topics covered include: Rules and regulations, penalties, dress code, who and what a Rangemaster is/does, equipment, gun safety, gun requirements, ammunition, gun loading & safely shooting in the saddle. 

You will also learn how to navigate a CMSA Course of Fire and basic course management. 

You will learn about desensitizing your horse to gunfire, and have the opportunity to expose both you and your horse to gunfire in a controlled environment under the close supervision of experienced Mounted Shooters. 

The goal is by the end of the day you will have shot off your horse!
