ROY ROGERS RANGERS MOUNTED SHOOTING
The Roy Rogers Rangers Mounted Shooting club was formed in 2001 to promote the great sport of Mounted Shooting. Mounted Shooting is one of the nation's fastest growing equestrian sports. We are affiliated with the
Mounted Shooters engage a course of fire on horseback. The sport combines the elements of exhibition shooting, barrel racing, pole bending, and reining; all done while using two .45 caliber single action revolvers, loaded with 5 rounds each of specially prepared black powder blanks to shoot ten balloon targets set in a random pattern called a 'stage'. Mounted shooters are timed through the stage determining raw time plus any penalties incurred; for instance, 5 seconds added to raw time for knocked over barrel, dropped gun, missed target. The contestant with the fastest overall time wins.
Practices and Mounted Shooting Clinics are held monthly by the Roy Rogers Rangers to recruit, train and mentor new mounted shooters; as well as provide an arena for seasoned mounted shooters to hone their skills.
