Cowboy Courtesy

Most folks don't relate a cowboy with manners, but true cowboys are true gentlemen!  Unfortunately, I find that "cowboy courtesy" has been negatively affected by our lenient society.  My family has always felt it an honor to be interconnected with the cowboy way of life...something to be proud of!  Seems as though this type of courtesy has gone by the wayside.

Let me share with you a less familiar form of cowboy etiquette that true ranch wives still notice...

When cowboys wear their spurs into a house it shows a lack of respct, and looked down upon by housewives.  But you can always tell a cowboy that has respect for you (and your home) when you see his gear looking like this next to your back door!

Some cowboy etiquette has been long forgotten.  It's important to hand down the "rules" to the next generation of cowpolks...because it's rough to learn the rules the hard way.
