Cowboy Fast Draw Comes to Blue Hill!
The Blue Hill Rifle & Pistol Club has become the first club in New England to offer Cowboy Fast Draw. This is not your Father’s fast draw! "CFD" is very different from the fast draw competitions that started in the 50’s and 60’s. It uses “stock” 45 caliber single action pistols and holsters. Tricked out and modified guns and holsters are strictly forbidden. Ammunition is a wax bullet propelled by either a shotgun primer or a minimal powder charge. CFD has an accuracy component as well as speed. The wax bullet has to hit a 24 inch steel circle to score and stop the timer. We hope to have the Cowboy Fast Draw set up at the next monthly club meeting, and definitely plan on having it at the club’s Fall Shoot in October. For more information on CFD, go to www.cowboyfastdraw.com
- The Blue Hill Rifle and Pistol Club is moving toward affiliation with the Civilian Marksmanship Program (CMP). There is a committee working this and they are making significant progress toward offering this exciting new program to club members.
