Southland Cowboy - Jacob Finlayson

From Afternoons, 2:07 pm on 1 August 2014

A story about stetsons, pistols, chaps and the wild west of Otago. A New Zealand cowboy who goes by the name of 'Lightning Jack' has recently returned from what's coined the world championships of Cowboy Action Shooting, where he shot his way to become the eighth-deadliest sharp shooter around. The competition, called End of Trail, was held in Albuquerque, New Mexico last month... and Jacob Finlayson, was part of a nine-strong New Zealand contingent to compete, and keep the memory of the Old West alive.
