Charles has worked with cattle all his life and says that his favorites are the Texas Longhorns because he admires their ornery disposition. While he began work as a regular cowboy, his extraordinary skill with rifle and pistol earned a much coveted spot as a cattle gunman when rustling became rampant on the trails.
In his most discussed confrontation with a band of cattle rustlers, he shot two dead and captured 4 of their compatriots by tracking them for 2 days to a blind canyon.
When not riding the range he can be found at the Wagonwheel Saloon sipping single malt and playing dice.
