What is Mounted Shooting? |
|
Mounted shooting is an exciting new equestrian sport that
combines some of the highest quality of horsemanship along with
gun handling and target shooting. Competitors race through
various patterns of barrels and poles within an arena while
firing .45 caliber pistols loaded with black powder blanks at
balloon targets. Scoring is based on elapsed time plus a five
second penalty for each target missed or barrel knocked over. An
average course of fire normally takes a contestant between 10
and 30 seconds to complete.
Mounted Shooting blanks, balloons & other supplies are available online here.
