Custom Shoppe Stag Handled Hunter's Bowie

Cowboy Action Shooting is about romance, not reality. When I was a boy many of the real people these enactors are portraying were still alive and my father introduced me to some of them. A Texas Ranger with two big Bisley Colts kept my eyes bugged and my mouth shut while he and my father talked. It is easy to forget that 100 years ago men dressed in the shield front shirt and stripped pants would go for months between baths while working in heat and dust moving cattle from home range to market.
