 | Cowboy Mounted Shooters Fall Fest
The Dixie Rough Riders hosted the Cowboy Mounted Shooters Fall Fest at the Show Place Arena October 17-18. The Dixie Rough Riders of Nesbit, Mississippi is a community-based, non-profit mounted shooting association, member of the Cowboy Mounted Shooters Association (CMSA).
The show was a benefit fund-raiser for Heart’s Desire Therapeutic Riding Center in Senatobia, MS. On hand to disseminate information about the Center was Cathy Perry, Director of Development. Cathy said, “Heart’s Desire is a faith based organization; our slogan is 'God healing hearts using horses.’” Their programs are hippotherapy, therapy with the aid of a horse; therapeutic riding; and equine experiential learning. Currently, they are putting together a book of stories about the people who have come to Heart’s Desire, starting with Karen Cates’ story, founder of the organization.
Mounted Shooting is a competitive, sometimes family affair. All members of the Lewallen family participates, from 8-year-old Kayla, to her brother Trevor, mother Sabrina, and father Mike. From this event, they are on their way to the World Championships October 20-24 in Amarillo, Texas. Kayla simply loves her pony Peaches.
The shooters use a 45-caliber single action revolver n a Colt or Ruger, designed for the sport. They use coarse black powder blanks, no projectile. So it’s the spark and grit that pop the balloons.
