Los
Vaqueros - Arizona Historical Shootist Association, Incorporated
Los
Vaqueros is one of the oldest Cowboy Action Shooting clubs in the
United States, and the oldest in Arizona. The club began in
1984
under the leadership of Ole Deadeye (SASS #422 L, Regulator, SASS Hall
of Fame Member). The current Board of Directors strives to
maintain the spirit of Ole Deadeye's vision for the club by welcoming
new-comers, working cooperatively with other clubs and match
organizations in the region, and creating shooting scenarios that are
fast with big and close targets.
Los Vaqueros is a non-profit
corporation, registered with the State of Arizona. Our sole
mission is to encourage people to participate in Cowboy Action Shooting
and celebrate the history of the Old West. We are affiliated
with
the Single Action Shooting Society (SASS) and the National Rifle
Association (NRA). Our club adheres closely to the rules for
Cowboy Action competition specified by SASS, and the rules for safe gun
handling put forth by the NRA.
Our monthly matches are presently
held at the Tombstone Livery, operated by Cowboy Doug and Tequilla
Terri, just outside Tombstone, Arizona Territory. Our matches are held on the
Third
Saturday of every month. First shot downrange at 9:00 a.m.
