Upcoming Events

We provide a place for all mounted shooters to learn, compete and grow in an encouraging, fun setting

The class format of our local events provides an opportunity to start small, compete with others at your same skill level and build on previous skills as you progress through the CMSA levels.

Learning Opportunities

Suffice it to say we've seen some stuff  in over 20 years in this sport and we know exactly how to help you not scare the bejeebies out of your horse while becoming a mounted shooter. 

THANK YOU to all our participants and helpers!! We've had three full clinics, a private clinic and a fun intermediate workshop so far for the 2024 season, we only offer our clinics based on request. Please reach out if interested in attending. 

Clinics

Scheduled on Demand

We offer beginner clinics by request, as well as collaborative workshops for intermediate or advanced riders. We were honored in 2024 to put on three full beginner clinics, a workshop and one private mini clinic. 

We tailor each event to the participants and their needs, and truly love watching the breakthroughs that are a natural byproduct of the learning process!

More info on the clinics/lessons page, contact us about scheduling one. 

Riding Lessons

Scheduled on Demand

We do offer both individual and group lessons on mounted shooting and general horsemanship. These are less 'get your heels down' and more 'lets try this bit and see if it helps' kind of style.

We chose this sport for the deeper communication it requires of a horse and rider and that's always the end goal for us when helping people.

More info on the lessons page, contact us to set them up.

The Facility

The home base for MO CMSA is located seven miles north of I-70 and Columbia. Our arena is a 250 X 120 outdoor pen with excellent footing that is the location for most of our events. Since it's our home arena and free for us to use, I'm just gonna write something here that makes it sound cool, ok? Ok.
This private facility features a fully fenced property in a secluded valley setting with plenty of parking. A fun little woods hill trail to take with creek crossings, a 60ft shaded sand round pen and plenty of warm-up space next to the arena work well for new horses and mounted shooters in training. Note to self: I need to re-read that when I'm feeling too lazy to ride. 
We work hard to provide a laid back atmosphere that encourages collaboration and learning. If you're gonna be a jerk, get outta here with that jazz. If you're gonna scream corrections at people across the arena, be forewarned we may just silently hand you duct tape with a frowny face. Way different than cheering for each other, we have a lot of that! 
As with all outdoor pens, we're weather dependent. Please text Laura at 573-881-3833 or check our FB page for weather updates on events. I'll do my best not to vent to you about our great state's weather patterns when I respond. No promises. 
Note: We do have access to an all-weather covered arena for a backup for many of our events.
