The Dixie Desperados range is proud to be a part of the new

Southern Utah Shooting Sports Park


We are a SASS affiliated cowboy action shooting club located in St. George, Utah. We started shooting in October of 2000 and have been having a rootin' tootin' good time ever since. We offer safe cowboy action shooting twice a month (2nd & 4th Saturdays). To get to the new range, take exit 16 (towards Hurricane) off Interstate 15 - proceed east (towards Hurricane) for about 2.5 miles, then turn right (south) into the fairgrounds area - follow signs southwest for about 1 mile to range.  Here is map1 and map2 to our new range. A mandatory shooters meeting will be held at the beginning of each shoot (at the posted starting time). We usually shoot 6 stages.
 
The public is welcome and membership is not required - come on out!

"The Great Blowout"


PLEASE try to dress in an 1800's style.  For example; blue jeans, long sleeved shirt, cowboy boots or other leather shoes/boots, and a cowboy hat. Women can go the same route or dress more feminine - your choice. We're easy on newcomers, but please do your best to keep in the "spirit of the game."  Costuming is part of the game and a lot of the fun.
