Welcome and thank you for stopping by to visit the Ladies of Cowboy Action Shooting (LOCAS) website! LOCAS is a group of cowgirls dedicated to SASS Cowboy Action Shooting (CAS). We encourage our cowgirl sisters in all things related to CAS. Side by side with our cowboys, we strive to embrace new shooters into our wonderful world of CAS!  We live by the cowgirl code of ethics which we call "The Cowgirl Way". Preserving the Old West heritage is important to us and we welcome new folks to our world. Kind words and encouragement fuel us.     

 

LOCAS was created and designed to encourage, support, and recognize the accomplishments of ladies in the world of SASS and CAS. Whether you are a cowgirl currently shooting or would like to become a cowgirl involved in shooting or a cowboy that would like to encourage a lady in your life to shoot, please join and support LOCAS. This group is a safe place where we can support, encourage, and exchange ideas related to women who are cowgirl action shooters.

To order your pin please go to the shop tab.

We highly recommend you purchase a pin as the proceeds go to fund our awards as detailed below. We have two raffles a year based on your pin number which is on the back of your pin. Raffles are in July and December. Cowgirls and Cowboys are both encouraged to join LOCAS with the intent of supporting lady shooters. Joining with intentions of self-promotion or solely promoting your business is not acceptable. Cowboy action shooting vendors are welcome here, but please keep it to once a month.

 

Cowgirl of Honor Awards

LOCAS has implemented an award system called The Cowgirl of Honor, which recognizes the epitome of the “Cowgirl Way”.

The Cowgirl of Honor Award will be presented at the following SASS major events: End of Trail, The European Championship, the Australian Regional, and the SASS Canadian National Championship.  Any cowgirl that participates in these events is eligible to win this award that epitomizes “The Cowgirl Way.” All match competitors will be judged equally regardless of shooting class or age. If you happen to witness a cowgirl doing something extraordinary at any of these events, please drop a note in the designated nomination box. There will be a nomination box for registered shooters (Cowgirls and Cowboys) to cast their nominations.

 

Nominations will be considered on:

▪ Enfolding and assisting new shooters.

▪ Support and encourage fellow shooters and the youth of our sport.

▪ Give back to the sport through local clubs; assisting posse; assisting hosting clubs as needed and as able.

▪ Encourage and inspire friendly competition.

▪ Respect your Flag and Country.

▪ Authentic and creative costuming.

All match competitors will be judged equally regardless of shooting class or age. If you happen to witness a cowgirl doing something extraordinary at any of these events, please drop a note in the designated nomination box.
