Fantastic figures. Full of life & action. I particularly like the chap falling off his horse. Without stirrups, it must have been hard to stay on. |

I think he is firing from under his horse's neck, a tactic that some plains Indians used. |

Yes, that was known as "Sioux side" but other tribes did it as well. There was a rope around the horse that had a loop that the rider's foot went through to help with the whole deal. The northern plains Indians are to this day unbelievably fantastic horsemen. They still learn to ride about as soon as they can walk. Tom |

Seems like one would have to be awfully unlucky to be hit by a bow fired in that manner. |

Oh he's shooting a bow. I thought they were reins he was desperately clutching. You can appreciate my confusion:
(though maybe he's in total control & this is a new way to take a swipe at the ball). |
