Big Iron Patnode SASS 60632 Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Well the Yul Lose "Texas Cart" with a St. Michael and Thin Blue Line tribute has made it to Texas! Jeff Jackson, aka Colorado Jackson, won a YL cart in 2020 during the LOCAS fundraiser. He told Yul he wanted it to be Texas Themed and the best cart YL had ever made. I won a cart in 2021 and shortly after, we lost CJ. YL wanted me to finish out CJs cart as he had already started it and then they could raffle mine off as a fundraiser for Melissa Jackson. Luckily Missy was kind enough to agree. I kept everything Jeff asked for but added St. Michael, a thin blue line running from El Paso to Beaumont, my alias, and a CJ as close to Colorado as they could get it. Yul Lose nailed this along with his leather pard, Double Diamond. @Yul Losethank you für EVERYTHING! 20 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 No picture does justice to Yul's workmanship and the finish! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itchy Trigger Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 (edited) How am I suppose to steal it and pretend it is mine if it is shown here first??? Seriously, looks great and it will be envied at the TexasStateRifleAssoc match at the end of the month!

Yul Lose Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Glad it made it and I hope you enjoy it for many years. Big Iron Patnode had 4 requirements for the cart. 1. keep it a Texas themed cart. 2. CoJac remembered as close to Colorado as we could get him. 3. The St. Michaels emblem and 4 The Thin Blue Line other than those items he left the cart design and embellishment totally up to Double Diamond and myself. He didn’t want to see the drawings or anything else that we were going to do to the cart and when it was finished he didn’t want any pictures, he wanted to see it first hand. I hope everyone that sees it will see a little bit of one of the best pards ever to play our game. 11 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need them in Texas right now!!! Really looking forward to seeing the panels first hand later this month. Every panel was impressive. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Catorce Posted July 21 Share Posted July 21 Beautiful work and a beautiful tribute. Pictures probably dont do the cart justice.. didnt realize how much the yellow rose pops until i scrolled to YL’s pic.. the sun and shadows really show the 3D. Congratulations BIP on a beautiful cArt! thank you for sharing. YL and DD, you are truly cArtists! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
