Cowboy Fast Draw is a more traditional style that uses the Sherrifs starting position
with the hand on the gun to start but the hammer is thumbed and the gun barrel must be in front of the holster when fired.
Cowboy Fast Draw uses a stock single action revolver and a traditional style Texas Loop quick draw holster.
Howard Darby runs the Okotoks Fast Draw Club which practises both styles every Monday night at the Okotoks Rifle and Pistol Club. New members are very welcome, come on out and try it for yourself. If you have a single action 45lc you too can experience what it was like to compete in the wild wild west. If you don't have a gun, that's okay too, we'll loan you one and fit you out with some club leather. We shoot wax bullets (also supplied) so the sport is safe and fun to do. Just email us first so we can confirm that we'll be shooting and make sure we have equipment there for you to use.
We also hold regular Saturday afternoon competitions that include two skill based events and two fun filled novelty events that allow novice shooters to have an equal chance to win prize money. Entry fee is $25 and our next shoot is Saturday, April 14th with registration starting at 12:30pm. For more information contact Howard through his web site below or email our shoot organizer.
