Exhibition shooter?

Years ago there was a trick shooter on one of the shooting shows who dressed in buckskins. Had long hair and a full beard. I've been racking my feeble brain trying to remember his name. Can anyone here help?

How many years ago? Did you ride in a buggy to get there? The only one I can think of was Herb Parsons who shot for Winchester. I don't know about his attire.

Pretty clean cut - conservative dresser.

Not quite THAT long ago!
He was a regular for awhile on Shooting USA or Shooting Gallery probably 15 or 20 years ago. I remember a shot where he skipped a 22 bullet off a tub of water to hit a 2 liter pop bottle behind and above it.
Just wondered if he was still alive and still shooting.

Could it be Byron Ferguson? He was actually a trick shot archer. I am thinking he dressed in buckskins.

Wasn't me. My best trick so far was to forget my hearing protection in the tin shooting shed one time....ouch.

Did he shoot with handguns or a rifle?
