traditional Buckaroo lifestyle, art
and gear
Carl Hammond, buckaroo artist, was born in Winnemucca
and raised on the Hot Springs Ranch located in Humboldt County in northern
Nevada. The large ranch was part of a desert cattle operation started by
Carl's pioneer Great Grandfather in the 1800's. Carl started going on the
open range roundups with his dad when he was seven years old. He grew up
learning old time horseman skills listening to older vaqueros at cow camps;
some of the best buckaroos of that time. Carl continued to live the legacy
of the buckaroo and his lifetime of ranching provides the heritage reflected
in his artwork: bronze sculptures, paintings and drawings. His hand crafted
horsehair mecates and silverwork reflect the time honored craftsmanship of
great horsemen. Cowboy poetry & auctioneering round out Carl's buckaroo
way of life. ... Custom orders are always welcome ... Enjoy the site.
