Cowboy Action Shooting
Cowboy Action Shooting is a multifaceted amateur shooting sport in which contestants compete with firearms typical of those used in the taming of the Old West: single action revolvers, lever action rifles, and side by side double barreled, pre-1899 pump, or lever action shotguns. The shooting competition is staged in a unique, characterized, Old West style.
Contestants shoot in several one-to-four gun stages (courses of fire) in which they engage reactive steel and cardboard silhouette targets. Scoring is based on accuracy and speed.
The truly unique aspect of Cowboy Action Shooting is the requirement placed on authentic period or western screen dress. Each participant is required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, or Hollywood western star, and develop a costume accordingly.
Cowboy Shooting events are held on the 2nd Sunday at 9:00 am and the 4th Saturday at 9:00 am each month at the Sportsman Park. Contact Scott O'Clair at (541) 850-5849 or Email:klamath.cowboys@hotmail.com
