The Boston Mountain Gunslingers is a relatively new club which formed in 2005. This is a club devoted to the sport of Cowboy Mounted Shooting. We have practices on the 2nd and 4th Sundays of each month at the Crawford County Fairgrounds arena in Mulberry, AR.

CM shooters use black powder blanks which shoot a distance of 15-18 feet. The targets are balloons which are not set close to the arena wall (for obvious reasons). Even if you did get hit with some shot it is like getting pelleted by sand whipping up in a strong wind. There are over 50 patterns, or stages, in the CMSA. We follow the CMSA guidelines pretty closely.

If you would like more info. about the BMG or want to see more, you are welcome to come down any time.  For more information contact:  Merl Potter, 479-632-6339 or e-mail at merlp@earthlink.net. http://cowboymountedshooting.com/

The Cowgirl Up Riding Club was started by a lady in the Pineville area who was recovering from health problems and wanted to ride for exercise. She posted a note somewhere, wanting ladies to ride with, and the rest is history.

We currently have Around 75 members from Missouri, Eastern Oklahoma, and NW Arkansas.  We ride on Wednesdays and Saturdays and sometimes schedule campouts.  Our ladies get together to have fun and relieve the stress of everyday life. They ride all different kinds of horses, some gaited, some not, it doesn't matter.  We meet every month at the Rogers library at 6:30 on designated dates.  A newsletter is posted following the meeting with scheduled rides and subjects of discussion.  We are always doing something fun and welcome new members. 

Membership dues are $12.00 yearly, which gives you access to our web site.
