I looked through the SASS handbook and for every category I saw it mentioned that revolvers had to be fired with one hand but whenever I see videos of SASS most people are using the weak hand to work the hammer. What am I missing?

Read the SASS handbook again it is specific in which catagories two handed shooting is allowed. wM1
WARTHOG, Dirty Rat #600, BOLD #1056, CGCS,GCSAA, NMLRA, NRA, AF&AM, CBBRC.  If all that cowboy has ever seen is a stockdam, he ain't gonna believe ya when ya tell him about whales.

Howdy Rich, yer right it's mising from the revised 2015 Shooters Handbook. While it was still hard to find it was there under "Age Based Categories" page 13. It used to have bullet points like this;
AGE BASED• Any Main Match revolver.
• Revolvers may be shot any style except Gunfighter
The aged based categories are on page 13, all of these categories may be shot two-handed;

AGE BASED
• Juniors
• Buckaroo
• Cowboy Category shooters are competitors of any age range.
• Wrangler Category shooters are competitors 36 years of age or greater.
• Forty-Niners are competitors 49 years of age or greater.
• Seniors are competitors 60 years of age or greater.
• Silver Seniors are competitors 65 years of age or greater.
• Elder Statesmen/Grand Dames are competitors 70 years of age or greater.

It is still there under Frontier Cartridge page 15;
FRONTIER CARTRIDGE• Any Main Match fixed sight model revolver.
• Revolvers may be shot two handed or one handed (duelist style).

Hope this helps....Good Luck :)
