AFTE 2010 Cowboy Shoot

Green Valley Resort—Henderson Nevada

Sunday, May 2, 2010 (~1-4 PM)

 

 

I

t’s time to match your skills against your fellow AFTE members in an old fashioned Cowboy style shooting competition!  Replica guns, wax ammunition and targets will be set up in the event area and those who sign up will get a timed run through the course.

 

Here’s how it works—One at a time, shooters approach the monitored shooting area along with a range officer and a timer. When the timer goes “BEEP”, the shooter will engage the targets with a pre-loaded revolver and deliver 5 shots in sequence—one to each of 5 targets—then set the revolver down. With the time still running, the shooter will then engage the targets with a lever action rifle and again deliver 5 shots on 5 targets in sequence and set it down (action open and empty). Finally (and with the timer still running) the shooter will use the double barrel shotgun and put two shots on 2 targets and set the gun down (action open and empty). The time stops on the last shot.

 

  • A 5-second penalty is added for each missed target.
  • Targets engaged out of sequence will incur a 10-second procedural penalty.
  • Long guns left in an unsafe condition (action closed or not emptied) will incur a 10-second safety penalty.
  • The lowest combined total time will win a prize!

 

 

The cost for a single set will be $10 for your first try and then $5 for each additional attempt. (3 tries for $20)

 

I’ve tried this and it is a lot of FUN! If you are arriving by mid day Sunday and would like to demonstrate your skill, look for the sign up area near registration. All payments will be collected at the event as there will be no pre-pay options.
