I love how supportive everyone always is at these events even when losing to children everyone is still happy for one another and seems legit happy to have just been there
It's gotta be a pretty small world. Everyone there ought to pretty much know everyone else. Also it's not too surprising that very young teens are the very best. Youngsters can train small-muscle speed in a way that adults simply can't. They have less distance to travel and less weight to move. Their muscles are tight and their nerves are brand-new. You see the same thing in speed-based video games (like minesweeper; 11 year old champ)
I knew a guy in high school who was a fast draw enthusiast circa 1959 and he demonstrated his technique one Halloween. He would let you hold a cocked bb rifle and on a signal from an onlooker he could clean his holster and fire before you could squeeze the trigger of the rifle. Damn!
I had the exact same reaction. I remember watching Wednesday night at the range when I was younger, and no one can forget that voice. A flood of memories about the genesis of my interest in competitive shooting.
@@captainhowzer7493 the truth just is. You really think he has some special muscle, when he wouldn't have even had access to the imaging technologies to determine if he had one. Ignoring the fact that the idea that this guy had some mutation to make him have an entire unique to him only muscle with new fibre types and enough strength to move his entire arm that fast is completely riduculous and as close to impossible as anything imagineable can get. I'm not hating when I say the videos are fake, because they are. I am hating when I say anyone who actually thinks about it for 2 seconds and still believes it is a dense motherfucker
Back in the 70’s and 80’s there was a husband and wife team that would put on quick draw shooting performances in and around the Houston area. Part of the show involved strapping the wife to a spinning wheel, surrounded by 6 balloons. The husband would proceed to draw and fire six shots in what sounded like a single shot, hitting all 6 balloons (not the wife). They were absolutely amazing! Does anyone out there remember them, or know who they were? They both wore very elaborate black and white western outfits with silver trim covered in rhinestones. They were getting up in age way back then (70ish), so I doubt they are still around today.
@ynotawoody -- You're looking for the late Bob Munden (RIP). His wife's last post on his TH-cam channel was about making a pie, so it was in the dawn of TH-cam's lifespan when they started uploading his stuff.
Seems like the 70s was the last of the wild west towns. By one of my properties in Far west Texas there is an old "ghost town park" From then. Last I heard they want a outrages price of like $3 million for it. In 20 years I've never seen any movement. Though I seen a couple years ago the repainted it. But what is an old ghost town park really worth? You can do the same thing for less then $500,000. I mean it hasn't had business in over 20 years that I know of. Just a money pit.
My first time watching and I am now subscribed to the Chanel, I loved everything I saw and you people are of the good sort. God bless you all and much love from Australia 🇦🇺 ❤️
Bob Munden was the fastest Cowboy Shooter of them all, he would shoot 2 rounds and hit 2 targets which were a couple feet apart from each other. I doubt that anyone will ever beat his split-second fast draw. Bob was the Best of the Best..!!!
saw Bob shoot his time was one tenth of one tenth a second, faster than a blink at one tenth. he shot six rounds you only hear 2 shots. he slows so you hear six shots, reloads shoots his speed again all you hear 2 shots. guy was phenomenal 2
I miss Bob. He was good family man, that was always welcoming to everyone. Of course when it came to competition time, watch out. He and his wife were fun to watch.
Enjoyed the show. I am a Clint Eastwood Spaghetti Western fan since a kid. If I was in the states I would for sure buy a colt, dress for the occasion and take part!!... Congratulations for all the participants and winners. All are having a nice time... what an atmosphere!!....
Depending on where you live, events like that may exist depending on the gun laws of your country ! I know there are regularly Cowboy Action Shooting in France, where I live.
I ran a course of fire for the Aussie top 2 speed shooters. I thought I was quick. However, I love running western action. Our guys go all in with clothing and calibre. Thank you for this vid
I bought a vaquero (old model, like me) and a decent rig once just for the joy of trying quick draw. Now, I'd done years of practical pistol of all kinds, and owning land and growing up country I'd been able to goof off with pistols enough to try shooting while suspended upside down and swinging (it's doable but slow). So quick draw: My first attempt wasn't slow, and amazingly it was a hit. I was suddenly addicted. A year later I was no faster, and no less accurate. I'm always fascinated by the truly fast.
Holy shit! Jim Scoutten! I haven't heard that voice in 15 years! Dam! Dude still looks and sounds great!. Made my day, hell yeah! My introduction to the community many years ago. Cheers!
This is so cool! Every aspect of this is really fun and good natured. It is living proof that firearms can be a wholesome pastime for everyone. I even loved the little role playing aspect with the competitors giving their attire, pistols and ‘characters’ extra personality and embellishments.

Good natured, but in reality guns are meant to kill. Even this aspect is based off shooting fast so you can kill the other guy before they can kill you. Guns are meant to kill. Culture involving guns are culture involving killing. Sure, not all killing is "bad", like for self defense, but it's not good either and usually bad, since if it can be avoided, you'd defend yourself without killing the other person, and with guns involved on either side, that is much harder. That is why there is so many gun deaths and mass shootings in USA, from both police and civilians. It's the only country in the world that has such mass shootings, simply because there is so many guns due to gun culture. Simple as that.
I met Cal 1989 when I started shooting ISPC/USPSA matches. It’s neat to see him all these years later. I know this video is probably older, I hope Carl is still doing well.
I am glad to have stumbled onto your channel. I love the History of American firearms. I own several BP guns. I have subscribed and liked. Also, instantly liked the host.
@@AV8R_1 He looks. You don't have to look at each slot. He opens while he's looking at it which tells hime that 3-4 slots are empty. The he looks up and rotates 3 times then looks down again. While making another rotation and a rechamber. Which tells him all are empty.
Yes indeed, I have to agree with that. Shooting sports are the best sports, so thanks for the videos! An armed America is a free America. (We could be even more free if the vast majority of Americans would start thinking for themselves, though.) Be prepared everyone, and carry a weapon. - Jason/Freedom Fighter/Sheep-Dog/VT, USA
English Longbowmen, French Chevaliers, Swiss Pikemen, Japanese Samurais, American Frontier men, . . . Amazing Heritages. by the way, the Cowboy quickdraw shoot and the Samurai drawing slash is similar in principle. both weapons are drawn from the Holster and attack within a fraction of a second. I long to see a friendly demonstration between Isao Machii and Oregon Ranger. xD
I don't know the name of the narrator, but his voice sounds very famous in the world of voice overs. It is perfection in all things modulation and tone.
Classic cowboy fast draw as I've always practiced it doesn't start with your hand on your gun while you're leaning back, it starts with your hands at your side while standing upright.
I thought that was odd as well. I assume that there's no rules on starting position so that there's no requirement to judge and penalize people if they leaned too much or started with their hand in an illegal position. That could be appropriate for the Olympics but this primary point of this competition is having fun (if the video was accurate), not obsessing over rules.
Yeah it makes it look kinda silly when they lean so far back the holster is almost already pointing at the target. Maybe they need like a post to stand against so they cant lean back.
Thank goodness - was looking for a similar comment because even in the thumbnail I thought it looked silly as all hell that everyone was doing the gangsta lean with their revolvers out...
cool man. u got people doing hema, japanese weapons arts, british bartitsu, medieval fighting communities and now this. coooool how we preserve history this way
Long time ago, I saw home movies of a Fast Draw competition held on Sunset BLVD in LA. It had been copied onto VHS from 8mm film, and it was really impressive.
@@thriftingcowboy I thought of that, however I've lived most of my life in Nevada and I consider that my home. Not to mention Nevada has virtually no humidity to speak of compared to East Texas. I've never really gotten used the humidity, it really sucks. Thank you for your input.
Unreal. That must take a boat load of effort. Thank you. You know, I would think that an engraved gun would come out of a holster slower than one smooth and polished. I also wonder if those mouth blown balloons are measured with accuracy. A bigger balloon would stick out further in the target, giving that shooter a minute advantage..IDK...
Do you have any recommendations on fast draw using the "cavalry draw"? I would appreciate any advice you can offer. I am both a history nut and gun aficionado. I've been a black powder reenactor/shooter since the late 1970s. My "personae" has been a "longhunter/frontier rifleman." I am now a "senior." My interest is cowboy action shooting. I've adopted a personae of a late 1860s army scout using a Henry 44-40 rifle and carrying two 1858 New Army .44 Remington revolvers (black powder). I want to use the "cavalry draw," so, I carry the pistols with the barrel facing backwards and down, grips forward. The SASS rules indicate that this carry/draw method ("cavalry draw") is okay. (For authenticity with my character, I'm using the standard Remington 7.5-inch barrel, much longer than usual short-barrel fast draw Colts I've seen used at SASS events.)
I love how Americans are so patriotic with no apology or second guessing themselves. Kinda' makes me wish I was born there so I could don the stars and stripes and let rip on the range too.
Well, we did break away and form a colony that eventually turned into a country which turned into a powerhouse. We defend our rights and the second amendment lets us Americans use the tools necessary to do so. It’s truly is a great country. Except for the sensitive people now. That’s pretty trash.
The greatest thing about America is you don’t have to be born here to enjoy shooting like a crazy men. Just gotta get here. Sources- a guy who wasn’t born there.
How did I just find this channel??? I follow all the firearm channels, but I grew up watching Jim on “Shooting USA”. Man this is so cool to see him. Wish it was on my old crt television but ccommie tube works! I can’t get over hearing his voice again, brings me back!
Looks awesome to me! More for the community and friendships and the competition. How much does this cost to get into I wonder? The firearms must be extremely expensive as the holsters?
Use to watch Bob Munden back in the seventies live at the Prescott courthouse even got to shake his hand a couple of times ever seen anything like him .
I have zero interest in ever joining in on this subculture, but it makes me so happy to just watch people do what they like doing. Watched the whole damn video. It was great.
Selly, I myself do know that, but I guess I was thinking of a sort of umbrella term to include SASS as well as Fast Draw. The main thing is to bring home the point that shooting sports are FUN, for just about anyone. I used to teach reluctant adult females how to operate firearms safely, emphasizing the fun aspect of shooting rather than the more serious uses of firearms. There is room for everyone, from SWAT to SASS.
Odd, we used to teach that 'clear and fire from hip' --very similar to the technique here-- in police work at 0-5 yards. I remember getting the powder burns from the flash gap on our DA revolvers.
Hey! I am having a question about fast draw. In other sports like 100m olympics running....there is an "early start" rule when a competitor tries to anticipate when to jump out of the starting blocks. Is there something like it too in fast draw?
I shoot flintlock rifles and smoothbores and it takes between 45 sec to a minute to load so anything under a minute is fast shooting for me with that said this was so much fun to watch. I love how Bill checked that single action Colt cylinder at the very start. Thats how its done.
I love how supportive everyone always is at these events even when losing to children everyone is still happy for one another and seems legit happy to have just been there
It's gotta be a pretty small world. Everyone there ought to pretty much know everyone else. Also it's not too surprising that very young teens are the very best.

This is beautiful 🤩🤩🤩
Would think there would be some sort of rule about how far back you can lean when you think of the draw mechanics, but still nuts how fast they are
couldnt agree more
And what, have some sort of referee stand behind you and measure your back with a protractor?
A sensor on your ass that beeps if you lean too far?
@@Shiftarusyea. How else do you think rules are enforced bozo
It's crazy how fast they move.
Most American thing I’ve seen on TH-cam in a while. Love it! Wouldn’t want to be one of these guy’s or gal’s toes, though!😉
Looks awesome to me! More for the community and friendships and the competition. How much does this cost to get into I wonder? The firearms must be extremely expensive as the holsters?
Use to watch Bob Munden back in the seventies live at the Prescott courthouse even got to shake his hand a couple of times ever seen anything like him .
I appreciate that they can get a shot off faster than me and I am definitely no one to mess with. This is an art being kept alive by just being alive.
I’m blown away at the speed and accuracy.
Looks like so much fun!!! I’m so jealous. If my spine wasn’t too bad I’d be on my way there lol
There is no end to our fascination with Jim Scoutten's voice.
I have zero interest in ever joining in on this subculture, but it makes me so happy to just watch people do what they like doing. Watched the whole damn video. It was great.
Looks like fun and is more safe than I originally thought.
Stopped in Fallon once on my way back from Colorado to Oregon. Didn’t think much of it in the middle of the night, I had no idea about this!
This is awesome
Nicole fast-draw Frank's is one of the best fast draw Shooters I've ever seen her mix of super speed and accuracy is inhuman
This is so cool man, I wish I could do this
Love to see the youth shooting. Winning against your mom/ coach must have been great but to win it all wow!
This is probably the most fun gun convention i'd like to be part of
Though how fast they are, none of them will ever be better than Bob Munden!
this looks so fun i need to train to quickdraw
Cowboy action shooting is a great sport. Fun, inclusive, something for everyone. Even being a spectator is fun
This is quick draw. Cowboy action shooting is a completely different sport.
Selly, I myself do know that, but I guess I was thinking of a sort of umbrella term to include SASS as well as Fast Draw. The main thing is to bring home the point that shooting sports are FUN, for just about anyone. I used to teach reluctant adult females how to operate firearms safely, emphasizing the fun aspect of shooting rather than the more serious uses of firearms. There is room for everyone, from SWAT to SASS.
My hat goes off to Curly Calhoun , for using his vintage side arms as they were intended . Shooting . And a big congrats to Flying Cowgirl
Definitely the highlight of the video
That young girl was amazing ❤
Remember: the farther back you lean, the more pro you are.
Joking aside, this is honestly impressive stuff!
It's stupid and they they didn't shoot like that In the old west😂
Hahah Yeah that is pretty ridiculous actually, but it's such an obscure hobby does anyone really care?
Doc Holiday did not do the cheat lean, but these guys and gals are fast, amazing to watch
Awesome!!
Odd, we used to teach that 'clear and fire from hip' --very similar to the technique here-- in police work at 0-5 yards. I remember getting the powder burns from the flash gap on our DA revolvers.
Hey! I am having a question about fast draw. In other sports like 100m olympics running....there is an "early start" rule when a competitor tries to anticipate when to jump out of the starting blocks. Is there something like it too in fast draw?
Even our grandpa's are getting into speedrunning.
I shoot flintlock rifles and smoothbores and it takes between 45 sec to a minute to load so anything under a minute is fast shooting for me with that said this was so much fun to watch. I love how Bill checked that single action Colt cylinder at the very start. Thats how its done.
Want to see speed? Jerry Miculek
Well they could do 3 shots per minute with smoothbore muskets, and I've seen demonstrations.
@@redtra236 Yes Sir you are right on target, pun intended. Drilling on loading and firing was so key. as these six gun champs have shown.
I've never heard of this and im fascinated
