Cowboy Mounted Shooting 2025 Ep 2

Описание: Cowboy Mounted Shooting is a timed equestrian sport where riders, using two single-action revolvers loaded with blanks, navigate a course and shoot at balloons. The sport emphasizes speed and accuracy, with penalties assessed for missed targets, dropped guns, or course deviations.
Here's a more detailed breakdown of the rules:
General Rules:
Safety:
Firearms are treated as loaded at all times, and loading/unloading is supervised by an armorer. Riders must be proficient in safe firearm handling.
Firearms:
Competitors use two .45 caliber single-action revolvers, each loaded with five rounds of black powder blanks.
Targets:
Ten balloon targets are arranged in two sets of five, with riders needing to shoot all targets in a specified order.
Course:
Riders navigate a pre-determined course, which may include barrels, turns, and other obstacles, while maintaining control of their horse and firearms.
Scoring:
Runs are timed, with penalties added for missed targets (typically 5 seconds each), dropped guns (5 seconds), and incorrect course navigation (10 seconds).
Specifics:
Blank Ammunition: The sport uses specially designed blank ammunition that pops the balloons but is safe for the rider, horse, and spectators.
Rider Attire: Western hats or safety helmets, long-sleeved shirts, and Western boots are generally required.
Horse Equipment: Saddles and holsters must conform to historical designs.
Range Master: A Range Master is present to ensure safety and enforce rules.
Additional Considerations:
Professionalism:
Riders are expected to maintain a professional demeanor throughout the competition.
Horse Welfare:
Riders are responsible for the well-being of their horses and must compete within their capabilities.
Alcohol and Drugs:
Consumption of alcohol or drugs before or during the event can lead to disqualification.
