Video Transcript

"We're here for the next stage of cowboy action shooting. We're actually going to go over a scenario and show you what we typically do. Okay, each stage has a different stage direction on the number of targets you have and what order they are to be shot in. I'm going to show you this stage in particular. We are going to break it down, we're going to show you target order, and then we're going to break it down and show you individual pistol, rifle, then shotgun and then after that we're going to put them all together into one stage and that's when it really gets exciting folks. Okay, first the shooter, the stage instructions here, the shooter starts standing with their hands on their hat. They are going to draw their first pistol, okay, at the beep, we have a timer, so at the beep the shooter starts the first two. One, two, three, four, five and holsters his first pistol and draws his second pistol. First shot, six, seven, eight, nine, ten and holsters his pistol. He will move then to the fence section, pick up his rifle. Then he will start a continuous sweep, from left to right on the rifle targets. Shot one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, he replaces his open and empty rifle. Remember safety first. Then he will transition over to the rock to get his shotgun. He'll shoot his shotgun targets which are knock-downs. Okay, when they are hit they knock down. This last knock-down has an aerial target that once it falls down it throws the target up in the air and then we shoot it in the air. That's real excitement, okay, I'll show you what it is, it happens to be a little soda can, we shake them up so you can make sure you see it when you hit it. That's what we do in a typical scenario."
