Ya hooo! Welcome to the home of "The Dakota Badlanders" a Single Action Shooting Society (S.A.S.S.) affiliated Cowboy Action Shooting club.

What is The Single Action Shooting Society (S.A.S.S.)

This is an international organization created to preserve and promote the fast growing sport of Cowboy Action Shooting. SASS endorses regional matches conducted by affiliated clubs and annually produces END OF TRAIL, the World Championship of Cowboy Action Shooting & Wild West Jubilee. There are SASS affiliated clubs in all 50 states, Canada, a few European countries and Australia. This is indeed a very popular sport and we are proud to be a part of it.

What is Cowboy Action Shooting?

Cowboy Action Shooting is a multifaceted shooting sport in which contestants compete with firearms typical of those used in the taming of the Old West: single action revolvers, lever action rifles, and side by side double barreled, or pre 1899 pump, or lever action shotguns. The shooting competition is staged in a unique, characterized, "Old West" style. Contestants will usually shoot all 4 guns ( 2 revolvers - lever action rifle - shotgun ) in 5 or 6 stages (courses of fire) in which they engage reactive or stationary steel targets. Scoring is based on speed and accuracy.

The truly unique aspect of Cowboy Action Shooting is the requirement placed on authentic period or Hollywood western dress. Each participant is required to adopt a shooting alias appropriate to a character or profession of the late 19th century, or a Hollywood western star, and develop a costume accordingly. Most, if not all clubs, have a minimum dress requirement. Denim jeans, long sleeve cotton work shirt, cowboy hat and leather shoes or boots.
