Cowboy Shooting Sports: (Cowboy Action Shooting, Cowboy Mounted Shooting and Cowboy Fast Draw)

First of all, I don't do either Cowboy Action Shooting or Cowboy Fast Draw - yet. However, I am old enough to have grown up with the radio, TV and movie cowboys that used to dominate the airwaves and the silver screen. The values that I learned growing up were heavily influenced by those western heroes â€“ Hopalong Cassidy, Roy Rogers, John Wayne, and many others. Like other kids my age I dreamed about riding the range with a six gun at my side. Times have changed but I still watch old westerns and I still get a kick out of watching the good guys defeat the bad guys. So when I read an article recently in the local paper about a fast draw contest it caught my interest and I started doing some research about cowboy shooting â€“ fast draw and action shooting. The more I read the more interested I became in the people who were not just shooting firearms from the Old West period in our history, but were also reviving the spirit of the Hollywood â€œOld Westâ€. Those shows from the 50s and 60s included themes such as protecting the weak, learning to live peacefully with people of other races and religions, and standing up for what you believe â€“ and even if the plots were a little simplistic, they helped youngsters identify those values with the heroes they were watching on the TV or movie screen. Eventually I decided to write this book about Cowboy Action Shooting and Cowboy Fast Draw, along with some background information about the actual history of the Old West. The book isn't an instruction manual or an expert view of these sports - it's intended to be an overview of what they are, how they got started, what you need to participate, and why you might enjoy taking part. And it's written with the hope that a few people who aren't aware of Cowboy Action Shooting or Cowboy Fast Draw may see this book, get interested themselves, and help keep the spirit of the Old West alive.
