I hate to bother you with this and it has probably been posted before but does anyone remember a and have a link to a Western Horseman article about the differences between a cowboy and a buckaroo? The article I saw is probably 10 years old but any link to anything similar would help me
Thanks

Start looking here.

There are differences in clothing and a few in how they work. They both, the real ones, just work cows. At one time, before TV, you could look at a 'Worker of Livestock' and tell where he was from but the lines have blurred.

If you don't mind post something up when find out the difference.

Well, I still haven't found that article! For the record I know too well what the differences are since I worked for years in both cowboy and buckaroo country. I just wanted to be able to find the article.

This may not be the article but it goes a ways and then some to clear it up and give you a history on both words..
