You shoot one.

Precision rifle competition meets table poker in a format built to reward cold-bore confidence, smart decisions, and clean execution.

01

Draw your hand

Seven rounds. Every card you strike lands in your hand. Make the best five-card poker hand from the cards you earn downrange.

02

Read the country

Distance, wind, mirage, and nerves all get a vote. Your job is to make the hit when the card you need is on the board.

03

Take the table

Five shooters compete at each table. The strongest natural hand wins, and a natural hand always beats a Joker-assisted hand.

Frontier lineage

Tombstone. Dodge City.
Deadwood.

Shoot Lucky tips its hat to three men whose names still belong around an Old West card table. The match borrows the spirit—not the mythology: steady hands, straight rules, and enough nerve to own the shot you send.

John Henry
“Doc” Holliday

Dentist · Gambler · Tombstone figure

He brought a dentist’s hands and a gambler’s nerve west. Our salute is simple: keep your hand steady when the stakes climb.

Steady hands. Cold nerve. No bluff you can’t back up.

Masterson understood that reputation meant little without rules. Our salute: a fair table, a clean line, and skill settling the score.

Straight rules. Fair odds. Let the best shot take the pot.

The legend of black aces and eights still follows Hickok from his final poker table in Deadwood. Our salute: know the odds, face the draw, and make the shot count.
