Color as shown: Chocolate in Pure Beaver

"The most dangerous eight seconds in sport." Is the way Bull Riding is often described, and it's not an exaggeration. Jim Shoulders is a sixteen time World Champion cowboy and he offered his view on what makes people flock to the bull-riding event at every rodeo, "It's the same reason people glance off the road to get a better look at a car wreck. It's why the Romans went to the Coliseum to see the lions eat the Christians. People don't want to see somebody die, but they darn sure want to be there when he does."

The Life of a Rodeo Cowboy
Every year hundreds of Rodeo Cowboy's pay their own way from rodeo to rodeo, all across the west, in the hopes of qualifying for the Calgary Stampede Rodeo, and the National Finals Rodeo in Las Vegas. Held in the first week of July and December respectively; this is where the top fifteen cowboys of every event, compete head to head for the Champion's Championship, the fancy belt buckle, and the big money pay-out.

Getting in to the top fifteen is impressive enough, but winning takes more than guts, and determination. The overall winner generally displays superior skill and talent, and quite often superior luck as well. Because if the cowboy doesn't get the right draw of a horse, bull, or steer that'll perform for him - he ain't gonna win. Real simple.

Trail Dust
Another quality hat service from The Last Best West.

Many customers have been requesting that we dirty up their new hats to make them look trail worn. Pictured at right is a Dusty Augustus - our Augustus with about 2 years worth of trail dust - as if a working cowboy had been wearing it.

We've got three different degrees of trail dust. Light (add $55.00) - medium (add $75.00), and antiquing (add $95.00). Light would be what you see at the right on the Dusty Augustus; medium would be heavy sweat stains, like Tom Selleck sports on the Quigley; and antiquing looks like our Captain York Cavalry Hat.

This is a similar process that costume designers apply to hats in the movies and t. v. Looks authentic and yer friends will swear yer just got off a trail drive, or a hitch in the Horse Cavalry!

You can add trail dust during the check out process - or request it when you call your order in. Orders call toll free: 1-866-207-1909.
