To Govern, Preserve and Promote the sport of Fast Draw
World Fast Draw Association crest The World Fast Draw Association is one of the largest sanctioning bodies in the sport of Fast Draw. It is a nonprofit group dedicated to governing, preserving and promoting the sport of Fast Draw.

The WFDA has twelve regional Vice-Chairman that cover all areas of the United States. It also has Vice-Chairman in Canada, Japan and the United Kingdom. Contests sanctioned by the WFDA fall within two categories: Vice-Chairman sanctioned, and Chairman sanctioned. The vice-chairman sanctioned contests are smaller regional contests, while the chairman sanctioned contests are the largest contests found in the sport, with up to a hundred of the fastest guns in the world competing for the top honors.

Please see the on-line Contest Calendar for more information, or look at some results of recent fast draw contests. You can also take a look at a sample of WFDA world records to see how fast Fast Draw really is.
