The Real Cowboys (Part 2): What They Used

BY JOLO


There were four equipments that the real cowboys used. The first equipment was a gun. At first they used guns for protection from outlaws and Indians. Afterwards, when there were no more outlaws and Indians, they used guns for killing rattle snakes and putting sick cows out of their misery. Their favorite gun is Colt .45. It has 2 barrels.

The second equipment was the lariat. The lariat is a 60 feet long lasso that is made of tough fiber. The lasso was used to capture cows during roundups.

The third one was a saddle. The saddle should be comfortable and have good quality. The saddle was very important for the cowboys. If the cowboy sold it, it meant that he will retire.


The last one is the horse. Cowboys prefer mustang ponies. They are fast, tough and small.

Jolo likes to play RPG games in his spare time.
