Gunslinging ain't for kids!
Howard Darby began his career as a fast & fancy gun handler in 1979 when he acquired a replica Colt Peacemaker. Since the gun was unable to shoot, he started spinning it, often doing so for hours each day. In 1981 Howard learned of a Fast Draw club located in his home town. From the moment he strapped on his first Fast Draw gun, Howard knew he had found a sport that he could sink his teeth into.
Regular focused practise and refinement of techniques has paid off. Howard has won Fast Draw world titles seventeen times, and the World Gun Spinning title six times... more than any other gun spinner. Howard also currently holds the title of WFDA "Fastest Gun Alive" and twenty-two world records in the sport of Fast Draw.

Well that's nice! Gun Spinning and Fast Drawing is fun . . . but back in the "Wild West" slinging guns had consequences. Why? Because having a reputation as a "gunslinger" could get you in trouble. Think about it now . . . what if you were Doc Holliday and met Johnny Ringo in a bar. Wyatt wouldn't interfere . . . since he was retired an all. How would you handle this situation???
OK so it did bother Doc . . you know . . being put down in that bar and all . . in front of his friends. So he just went out to find Johnny Ringo. Maybe Doc would have the chance to "set things right".
Now . . . if you have a weak stomach . . . you might want to skip the following video. It is, what you might call, self explanatory!
