Whoa Podcast About Horses Horsemanship

The Last Buckaroo Mac Hedges Mackey Hedges is a real cowboy.  Mac, as he is know to friends, has spent six decades working on ranches, punchin', branding, roping, and doctoring cows.  As Mac tells it, he may not be the Last Buckaroo, but cowboy-ing has changed substantially during his life time.  Mac has worked on over forty different ranches in the West.  He has some great stories to tell.  Mac has a special insight into what it is like to work on a spread.  He shares what it was like out on the range. In the Spring of 1990, Mac had a terrible wreck.  He tells us exactly what happened and by the way he describes it, the memory is still vivid in his mind.  Told by doctors he would have to change profession and faced with the prospect of never getting on a horse again, Mac turned to writing.  He wanted to make sure his grandkids knew about his life.  The result was The Last Buckaroo.  Told through the voice of a seasoned cowboy as a novel, Mac describes his story of the West.  Helped by Cowboy Poet Baxter Blac
