- Doug Groves, cowboy and craftsman, deals with cows from birth to death. He transforms a cow's hide into traditional cowboy tools and art.
This piece was made with Meg Glaser for the Western Folklife Center's exhibit on cowboy crafts, "Back at the Ranch" - Фільми й анімація
I came here after watching (reading now) The Power of the Dog. The film truly transmits an appreciation for working with raw hide to produce lassos. It also shows the beauty of the old west.
Beautiful work!
I hope this life style never ends
It will, it can only operate for money- one day even the novelty won't even be worth keeping these places going- we can always be inspired by these things now though and pass on what we know to those willing!
Keep up the old traditions !!! 👍👍👍👍
Awesome. Thanks for posting this!
The cows in the background were like “ what did you do to my friend?”
I like how you stretched the skin with the rope, I always have trouble with pinning because it holds so much moisture.. really nice video.
Nice way of life!! The hat reminds me the spanish hat and the use of spanish words in the cowboy world, such as corral, riata, mecate, lasso, cinches and others, make me think that the roots cames from the mexicans vaqueros from 19 century,
Cowboying originated from Spain through Mexico
Well made video.
Well made lifestyle. 👍
Love this lifestyle
Very interesting stuff!!! Great video!!!
Thank you! It was very fun to make and Doug is great!
Epic mustache!
En Chihuahua México todavía hay rancheros que hacen tratas de cuero crudo
Awesome
Como en Argentina, lazos de cuero!!!!!
Fue la erencia que les dejaron los primeros mexicanos en texas
consulta donde puedo comprar la herramienta para la soga
I'd really love to see how you cut the entire hide to make the ribbon, is it just a spiral shape?
una traduccion sera genial
Why don't you use rawhide glue instead of grease to braid? Wouldn't be easier? Hide glue makes the tongs slide easy and keep them very tied after you pull them.
Moustache and red kerchief. Must be a cowboy.
Congratulations it's Jon is extraordinaria área you artista where mayo to buy their productos Ian mexican
Gente no maltraten los animales
Muy chévere las sogas pero sacrificar un becerro para hacerlo no me parece lo mejor
