I’ve been working on getting back into competitive shooting again, (it’s been about 16 years). I’m slowly putting together my gear for 3-gun, IDPA, and maybe even some SASS events. All of them have allot of appeal to me.
But there is one that I had forgotten about until recently. I’m seriously considering getting me a pair of Ruger Vaquero’s in .45 Colt for Cowboy Mounted Shooting. I’ve been wanting to give it a go since I saw it on a show on TV about 14 years ago.
I already have a quarter horse with about two years of reining training under it’s belt, and a place with plenty of room to practice. Other than the holster rig, the equipment I’ll need to get is pretty minimal.
Here’s one of the many CMSA clips I’ve found on YouTube
Now I just have to convince the wife that I need two more guns. Hell, she’s been looking for an excuse to buy a new horse trailer. Maybe we can “work something out”.
