Arizona 4-H is excited to introduce the Western Heritage shooting project to our club and state as of 2024! Western Heritage is a unique shooting sports project as it combines period dress, persona creation and knowledge of the 1860-1900 historical time period with rapid-action, timed steel target shooting. Participants employ period-correct firearms such as SAA (Single Action Army) pistols, double barrel coach guns and lever action rifles during timed relay engagements. There are also written and hands-on tests of the period in addition to live persona interviews conducted with a panel of judges.
