106 bronc stomper
As Adams observes, either a synonym for bronco buster or a man who is skilled in riding and able to ride a vicious horse. See also bronco buster above.According to Adams, "a horse in his second season of work."Adams says this refers simply to "a bad horse." It may refer to the fact that such a horse is hard to stay mounted on, hence "oily" or "slippery."Glossed by Watts as "an inexperienced or unbroken horse."To begin to break a horse, to ride it for the first time. -
107 cowboy
A man who is employed by a ranch to care for grazing cattle. The origin of the term is a matter of some discussion. The first cowboys of the American West were the Mexican vaqueros. It is likely that the term cowboy, like its synonym buckaroo, derived from vaquero. The fact that the earliest cowboys were the Mexican herders and that cowboy is so similar to vaquero in its formation lends credence to this theory. The use of "boy" in the term rather than "man" may be explained by the fact that it was originally used (before the Civil War) to refer only to young, inexperienced drovers who herded cattle. It may also have been a derisive or condescending term, similar to the use of 'boy' as a form of address (from whites to black males) in the Deep South. By the 1870s, cowboy became a general term to refer to anyone who tended cattle. Somewhat later (after the 1880s), the term came to connote a wild or uncouth individual. For instance, the Clanton gang, who battled the Earps, are sometimes referred to as such. The term cowboy has become widespread in English and is used extensively as an attributive adjective. Its usage today frequently connotes an impulsive individual who, through a show of force, attempts to resolve a conflict. -
108 hackamore
California: 1850. A headstall or rope halter with reins and a lead rope. It may also be constructed of rawhide or horsehair. Adams describes it as a headpiece similar to "a bridle with a bosal in place of a bit." It has no throat-latch, and its brow-band is about three inches wide and can be used to cover the horse's eyes. The hackamore is especially useful for inexperienced horses in the process of being broken because it has knots that fit close to the horse's nostrils and cause pain when the horse does not submit to its rider. This term comes from the Spanish jáquima, which the DRAE defines as a rope headstall that is used to tie and lead horses.Alternate forms: hackamer, jakoma, jaquima, stockamore.

110 wrangler
( caballerango [kaßajeráŋgo] < caballo 'horse' < Latin caballum 'pack horse, nag' plus - ero, an agentive suffix, plus - ango, a despec-tive suffix)OED: 1888. The hand on a ranch or trail drive who cares for the herd of horses. This position was usually held by a young or inexperienced cowboy. This term appears in English as early as the sixteenth century, but with the very different meaning of 'disputant,' such as for the throne. The OED suggests that the term used in the West is a combination of the English term wrangler and the Spanish caballerango. It is also quite likely that the western term evolved without the influence of the original English term, which cowboys were probably not familiar with. Rather, it is possible that early cowboys heard caballerango and recognized the caballo element. Early variants, caballo rango or even horse rango, would have eventually been shortened to wrango and then wrangler. It is likely that the eventual spelling was influenced by the existing English word. The Royal Academy glosses caballerango as a Mexicanism for a servant on horseback. Santamaría gives a definition more similar to the western meaning. He defines it as the servant who, on a ranch or personal estate, keeps and saddles the horses.Alternate forms: caverango, horse-wrangler, wangler, wrangatang, wrango.Also called horse pestler, horse rustler, remudero.The hand that cares for the remuda, or herd of horses, by day.The wrangler who works the early morning shift.A cowboy who cares for horses, leads rides for guests, and perform other chores on a dude ranch.A boy employed for chores on a ranch.According to Adams, a common term for a lawyer.
