‘Duel in Dunmore’ welcomes cowboy mounted shooters
DUNMORE, AB – The Canadian Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association held its most recent competition in Dunmore over the weekend.
Cowboy mounted shooting consists of riding a horse while shooting balloon targets in pre-set patterns. It’s a timed event where every missed balloon or dropped gun adds a penalty.
“It’s rated as the fastest growing equine sport in North American,” said Cyrl Shock, host of the Duel in Dunmore. “It’s a fast paced skill of marksmanship and horsemanship.”
