The Revengers of Montezuma will be hosting their own Single-Action Shooting Society match this Friday-Sunday, June 22-24, at the Sheriff’s Posse Rodeo Arena on East Empire Street in Cortez.

Shooters from all over the Southwest will be competing. There are two styles of shooting. The first is Cowboy Action Shooting, where competitors stand in front of a range with up to three styles of cowboy guns (rifles, pistols and shotguns) to shoot targets made of steel. The second style is mounted shooting where participants are timed thorugh a specific course of travel shooting balloons from horseback. In each of the styles, the person with the fastest times win. There will be single-action shooting from the ground and on horseback at the Cortez show.
