Default Tom Threepersons

Most people know of the Threepersons holster design and that Tom was a lawman in the Southwest. One thing I didn't know was that he had won the only trophy saddle given out at the Calgary Stampede rodeo. That was the first rodeo they held in 1912. I found this out because my supervisor at work has a stepson name of Wade Sundell who won the saddle bronc event at the 2012 rodeo and was presented a trophy saddle by the relatives of Tom. The reason Threepersons was in Canada in 1912 was because his family had moved there to start ranching. Just thought it was an interesting part of the story I had no idea about.
