Description

The Borderland Pistoleros are pleased to announce that Cowboy Mounted Shooting will once again be part of the Lincoln County Cowboy Symposium in beautiful Ruidoso Downs, New Mexico.
Each year, during the second full weekend in October, Ruidoso Downs, New Mexico plays host to the nation's finest cowboy festival with old west storytellers, noted historians, poets, musicians (including the world famous Texas Playboys), Chuckwagon cook-offs, western artists and craftsmen for three days of events, cowboy competitions, horse demonstrations, western swing dancing, kids rodeo and educational activities. In 1996, the symposium was selected as the Best Cowboy Cultural Event by the National Cowboy Symposium Association. In addition, the LCCS has been named one of North America's top 100 events by the American Bus Association.
In years past the majority of New Mexico shooters saw our sport for the very first time at the symposium and we are excited to once again be competing at this venue. We'll be riding right on the very same track the hosts the World's Richest Quarter Race: The All American Futurity each year. (Talk about good footing!)
This event will have to fit into a limited time frame as there are many other activities happening nearby. So it is a PRE ENTER ONLY EVENT and Limited to 60 shooters. Please enter in advance online. Payment will be taken onsite. No entries will be taken on the day of the shoot, as we must give a list of attendees to the race track officials for admittance to the barn area in advance. (All hauling papers and Coggins paperwork will be checked at the gate.)It is our hope to have a "Welcome Shooters��? Dinner and social get together Friday evening and we can get our riders meeting out of the way and get ready for an early start on Saturday morning. More details to follow as more information comes available. Sign up early so we get an information packet out to you.
There will be four stages each day with rifle and shotgun. We'll have added money coming in, jackpots and some fun stuff too. Stalls are $15.00 per horse (and they are STALLS) and dry camping is free with some electricity hookups available.
