Cowboy Etiquette

2010-12-09T18:19:00.000-08:00

Most people would not automatically conclude that the cowboys have the attitude, but in my days, most cowboys are considered true gentlemen. The hat tip for women is still valid in many cases, but let us examine some lesser-known forms of etiquette cowboy.

Growing up on a ranch in NE New Mexico brought a lot of lessons in cowboy behavior, many are still alive in today's environment is less formal. To go to a dance in the most meaningful leave your hat on the table when you dance (backwards, of course, to protect the edges). Spurs have never worn on the dance floor, even if you feel that they look cool.
This code is even more obvious when out working on the farm. We who are fortunate enough to live, learn lessons, sometimes the hard way. One way to insult productive cowboy is sure to rise in front of him, or between him and his flock.

When the animal collection, the riders gathered in the meadow in a similar way with enemy forces in the vicinity. Dropping off the rider to one end of the pasture was fully covered, they met together in one large circle and remain in the same formation, as the loop toward the corral or cattle squeeze your gateway. A cowboy is out of this formation is in for a difficult time.

This may call for some difficult decisions, especially if you were riding next to someone who does not know what they're doing. This is considered to be ok, though, if the animal is preparing to leave, to close the gap by riding in front of someone, however, you need to apologize as soon as possible.

cowboy paradise

2010-10-04T00:36:00.000-07:00

Cowboy Paradise is a rugged old style western town and is situated in the mountains near the Southern Alps. Step back over a hundred years in time and feel the wild west. Dress up and walk the streets of this wild western town. Cowboy Paradise is the wildest darn excuse for a town, where the sound of the Yellow Boy 44-40 and Colt Peacemakers can still be heard.

Cowboys in Paradise, a Documentary film about Balinese Gigolo

2010-10-04T00:28:00.000-07:00

Cowboys in Paradise, a Documentary film about Balinese Gigolo

Kuta Bali, Indonesia – Hi girls! Where are you from? I think I know you from the last night…..I love you!

That was the sound from the documentary trailer of ‘Cowboys in Paradise‘ when it is opened. That sentence comes from the mouth of a local man burly, dark, and bare-chested called Beach Boys.

Now the documentary film director, Amit Virmani, worried about the safety of children that beach so the film became a hot conversation in Bali.

“I am really worried about the safety of people in the movie and the youth who are at the beach,” said Amit, as reported by ABC News, quoting Reuters, Wednesday (28/04/2010).

On Monday, April 26, Kuta Beach Task Force raided the ‘dark-skinned, muscular man’ following the issue of a gigolo who appeared in the film work of Amit. The result, 28 men and one woman with no identity was arrested. Most of them are not native Balinese. After the raid, the Kuta beach on Tuesday, April 27, deserted from the beach boys.

Amit believes the phenomenon of gigolo on the beach is not unique in Bali; the island is also famous for its Hindu temples, volcanoes and rice fields.

“The cowboy was not a threat to tourists. What happens between adults is their own affair,” he said.

Kids Cowboy Boot

2010-03-26T21:03:00.001-07:00

Kids Cowboy Boots do have a personality development value. Many children pass through the information processing stages pretty quickly as a part of their development process in growing up as a culturally adherent adult. A typical western infant or kid is usually fascinated by the 10-gallon hat, a pipe and a hand tooled cowboy boots. They perceive that the Western look is lot related to this cowboy figure! Kids typically love to shine their boots and more ever they are happy with branded boots in existence to compete with their cleats.

A famous intelligence test report has figured out that those children of roughly similar age group perceived things the same way. Even if their answers and perceptions were wrong a particular output was common or it was seen in majority in the age group. Children look in to the world through a schemata process or an adaptation process.

A 4 year old tends to get a pair of kids cowboy boots as a gift from his parents on his birthday. From then, he tends to wear cowboy boots very often; however, he does not see anyone else wearing them apart from his peers. He develops a cognitive schema that none other than little boys wear the Cowboy boots. Since most of his day to day cognitions did not violate his assimilative view about Cowboy boots, he continues to believe that these boots were meant for kids.

One fine day, he is taken on a trip to Tennessee and when he gets off the plane he was able to see a huge crowd of people wearing cowboy boots. Huge in this term essentially means those that were big enough for a 4-year-old boy! On looking in to this trend the boy laughed at those who were wearing Cowboy boots because he felt that cowboy boots were meant only for kids!

This hysterical laughter got exaggerated when the kid saw a woman wearing those boots!

Per cognitive development theory, when a child is introduced to a product and they like using it, they tend to love the typical behavioral trends associated with it. Cowboy shoes are typically associated with hard work and of course a bit of western heroism. Having your child introduced to Kids Cowboy Boots at an early age will inculcate the characteristics of hard work and robust sportsmanship.

So, if you are looking to have your child fascinated with hard work and heroism, it is time you consider to gift them with a pair of kids cow boy boots. They are sure to enjoy wearing them at parties, dances and in whatever they want to do. Remember, when all this is happening, they are feeling like a proud branded hero and your kids never tend to feel inferior about themselves! They feel confident. They will have a lot of self-esteem.

Tight Western Jeans

2010-03-14T23:16:00.000-07:00

It seems to me that the term western and the term jeans go very well together. This could be because we know that it is very common knowledge that jeans is a working type of clothing, or rather, jeans started off as a clothing used for workers and other physical labor. We can also attribute the term western to the wild west and early western America where the land was worked and so were the guns. It is kind of natural to put hard working and western together to come up with a pair of jeans that is classified as western.

But what does that mean? And what does do these type of jeans actually look like? Well, as it so happens the mens jeans are a little bit baggy. This could be so that they are comfortable when they do work. Womens jeans are a little bit different to the male counterparts, they happen to be tight. It could be so that the jeans do not get in the way when they try to get onto a horse. Or it could be because they would not be doing such physical labor as the men. They might but not necessarily in jeans.

When it comes to seeing western jeans we should go to some source that is more obvious than the internet. We could have a look at country and western musicians. Having a look there gives us the same results. Baggy looking jeans on the men, but so baggy that they look like rappers, and tight jeans on women. Seems this is the trend for almost any style and type of jeans available on the market these days. There are some variations though when it comes to wash and color as is the case with every other genre of jeans, if we could call it that.

As we can see from this article, western jeans are really no different from any other type of jeans. There are just so many available to us now that it is very difficult to differentiate and name them anything specific. We see men wearing loose fitting and women wearing tight, mostly. And there is always so many colors for every style available to us as well. There is definitely some long standing relationship with westerns and working the land and jeans and so it look like we like classifying a jean as western even though there really is no such thing.

Technically speaking, all Stetson Company hats can be branded as a Stetson. However, American popular culture has created for us the image of a Stetson hat as the classic cowboy hat. Cowboy hats are distinguished as having wide brims and high, distinctly-shaped crowns. Straw, fur, and wool felt are the common materials used for making these hats. Straw, aside from being cheaper, is the best hat for during hot weather. However, age and long wear might cause it to become brittle. For durability, fur felt hats of either beaver or rabbit are best though more expensive. If you think that you can put on any cowboy hat and it will do, you might be surprised that there are fashion do's and dont's when it comes to wearing one.
Cowboy Fashion
Banish the thought that real cowboys only wear one hat. Real cowboys have several cowboy hats and other than function, they have other reasons. First, straw and hats of light color are fashionable and must be worn only in the summer or dry seasons. This is because they are airy, breathable, and as your science teacher always says, light colors absorb less heat. Second, the season for dark colored and felt hat is during the colder months. Aside from protecting the head against the bitter weather, these hats also absorb more heat, thereby keeping the cowboy warm. Though no clear reason is given why, white hats are no-no after the celebration of Labor day. You might just be branded as a fashion flop if you do so.
Cowboy Fashion
Okay you got your hat and you know how to wear one, but still, it's not enough to project a cowboy image. Cowboys follow certain etiquette when wearing hats, and you would do yourself a good deed to do as they do. Cowboy hats are not worn indoors except in public places that are enclosed and large (malls, square dance halls). Like all other hats, take it off when seated at a table, especially during meals. Wearing it while dining gives the impolite impression that you're in a hurry to finish eating and leave. A big no is wearing it inside Churches. If you feel like wearing it in a church, by all means attend service at a Cowboy Church.

Cowboys pay respect to ladies. Doff your hat to passing ladies by way of greeting and respect. Don't exclude men in uniform either. Church officials are also rendered the same courtesy. To do this properly, bow your head slightly at an angle and hold your hat by its crown. Lift it slightly as if taking it off, pause, and place it back. During services that require standing for a period of time (flag ceremonies, mass) hold your hat by its crown at chest level as if in a semi-hug. Now that you've learned your hat basics and etiquette, brush your cowboy hats and head out. The town needs you partner.

Mistake #1. Not Practicing Enough. Sure, practicing your quick draw is a give, but if you need to practice enough to get from Point A to Point B, many people make the mistake of working until they reach Point B and then assuming they're good enough. But practice and competition are two different things and no matter how "cool under fire" you may be, nerves come into play during the actual match.

Instead of stopping when you're at Point B, keep practicing until you're at Point C, Point D, or beyond. The farther beyond the point where you think you need to be, the more "room for error" you have available when you're competing.

Mistake #2. Not Practicing In Your Gear. While you're probably practicing with the same gun you'll use in competition, some people make the mistake of practicing in street clothes rather than the cowboy clothes they'll use on match day. No matter how much you practice, different surroundings and yes, even different clothes can make a difference.

That's one reason why actors in plays have dress rehearsals -- because no matter how well you know your lines, once the costume is on things are different enough that it can throw even the best. The same happens with cowboy fast draw -- if you're going to compete as a cowboy, you'd better do at least some of your practicing as a cowboy.

Mistake #3. Just Guessing At How Fast You Are. You wouldn't think of training for a foot race without using a stopwatch to see how well you're doing, so don't train for a quick draw competition without measuring your performance, either. You can't gauge how well you're doing by how it "feels." Fast draw is a "facts and figures" kind of sport and only a timer will be able to tell you what kind of progress you're making.

If you can afford a professional target and timer that's probably the best bet, but even a less expensive timer can do the trick -- as long as it was designed for cowboy fast draw. Keep a record of each practice session so you can

In summary, you'll do better in fast draw matches if you practice more than you think you need to, practice in your cowboy clothes, and use a timer to see your progress.

What Outfit Do You Need For Showmanship & Halter?

Both showmanship and halter classes require you to show your horse in-hand. This means the two of you will be up close and personal with the judge, well depending on how well mannered your horse tends to be.

In showmanship, your horse is more of a prop and the judge focuses on you and your ability to execute a pattern. Since the judging is emphasized more on the visitor, it is a good idea to choose an outfit that may minimize actions occurring at your hands and legs. For this reason, darker shades are typically used. You will likely find lighter colors in the show ring, but keep in mind that these lighter colors tend to emphasize movement.

You also want to make sure that you present yourself in a solid clean line, so your pants should match your top to avoid cutting your overall picture in half. Two different colors would also draw more attention to one half or the other which is not good in a showmanship pattern.

In halter the judge focuses on the horse. It is 100% (for the most part) on conformation and your horse either has it or he doesn't. For this reason you will likely see more of a variety in exhibitor apparel. Some show in a showmanship outfit, while others will pair a halter jacket with a pair of black pants or even jeans.
