Creasing Mustangs and Texas Marksmen in Capturing Wild Horses
A Texas cattle raiser recalls the 19th century practice of creasing wild mustangs by shooting a specific neck sinew with a rifle. Cowboys crawled within range to strike the sinew, stunning the horse for about ten to fifteen minutes. The method, using small rifles like Hawkins, yielded roughly one successful capture per three attempts, and contributed to the decline of wild horse herds as larger calibers caused excessive damage.
