CLUB MEMBERSHIP

Founding Members: These are members that contributed a fee of $200.00 in helping the establishment of ODFD in 2008. This was a onetime fee and is a LIFETIME MEMBERSHIP to ODFD. They never have to pay any future membership fees to ODFD in addition to receiving ½ off of practice and/or match fees that are not CFDA Sanctioned events such as State or Regional matches.

ODFD Regular Yearly Membership: This is a membership available to anyone after paying a yearly membership fee of $25.00 due in January of each year. Each member will receive a membership card for the paid year. This provides a person the opportunity to participate in the TOP GUN STANDINGS (more details below) while also meeting a requirement for competition as ODFD CLUB CHAMPION.

NOTE: A competitor does not have to be a member of ODFD to compete in monthly matches or practices. However, not being a member disqualifies the competitor from participating in the TOP GUN AWARD program and the position of ODFD CLUB CHAMPION.

ALL MEMBERS will make the effort to join and keep membership in the Cowboy Fast Draw Association as well as the National Rifle Association.

MEMBERSHIP in this club is non-transferable.

COMPETITION RULES: All ODFD Club matches shall be governed by the current edition of the CFDA Gunslinger’s Guidelines.
