I know Buck and while not close friends, I do consider him one of my mentors down my own personal horsemanship trail. I've attended many of Buck's clinics and have cowboyed with him on a couple of different ranches and at a couple different brandings too. Buck in the green, was helping here at a branding at Jack Palance's place. This was 2006. Buck was getting ready to doctor an eye on this calf.Always love seeing your photos, Dave!

Summer is here again in Texas. I broke out my woven hemp Open Road for an outdoor event in Houston last weekend. Chef knife roll on the floorboard. View attachment 3190920

I've competed against Buck numerous times in ranch roping competitions and have had him as a partner on my team once or twice too.
