I wouldn't be one bit surprised.

Pitchy is such a bad hombre he uses his own beard hair to mske his ropes

[Bronco]

Would not be surprised to find out that Pitchy taught that guy

[Pitchy]

Thanks fellars and Blaine for posting the vid,
Found the twirl stick but can`t find the things we made years ago, may have to try it again but no not with my beard hair

Very educational. Those two guys in that video look like Elmer Keith looked back then. We need guys like them today.

I remember that Tom Horn spent many months making hair bridals, reins and ropes while waiting to be hanged. A lot of that stuff used to be displayed at the Cowboy Hall of Fame in OKC. His rifle and saddle were part of that display too. Yeah, I know they changed the name but I can never remember it.

Nothing new same as spinning wool into yarn or making rope.
I should string up one of my rope making machines and shoot a vid one of these days.
Not taking away from the cowboy way as the doing things out of necessity is cool.

Swell video, Blaine.

Senor Wright... bridals are stuff for brides... a bridle is headgear for a horse... I don't imagine Tom Horn made stuff for brides...
