What does it take to draw a revolver and hit a target in under half a second?
In this episode of Why Am I, I talk with Cal, better known in the sport as “Quick Cal.” He’s been competing in fast draw shooting since the 1960s, winning world championships and helping build a sport where competitors in western gear race to quick-draw and fire wax bullets in less than half a second.
We talk about reaction time, the psychology of competition, and the culture behind cowboy fast draw, a sport built around family, integrity, and what its members call “the cowboy way.
