@@ewmhop There are many well known women in the old west but there is scope to cover what life was like for women such as in ranches and homesteads. Also women who lived in one of the towns and how different it was. Also what was it like for children in the old west. I think there could well be quite a range of very interesting subject matter here.
Actually, my 4'11" grandmother, farm wife, markswoman was THE Force To Be Reckoned With. She could give you a vicious tongue lashing and rip you a new one all with a sweet smile on her face leaving you walking away dazed and confused saying, "What just happened?" LOL! I love stories of the Rangers. Thank you, Santee!
I always feel a little bit happier after learning about our country's past. The tale of the Arizona Rangers is no exception: It's got action, mystery, suspense... hell yeah.
Big Iron, big iron! Still remember that song from the Fallout: New Vegas in-game radio. That game did a good job of capturing the feel of the old western Rangers and incorporated them into the setting.
2:00)Before 1903, no stars were used. The Rangers had to pay for them. 2:30)If a new Ranger did not own a .30-40 cal.1895 Winchester, he get one from Ranger supply and the cost taken from his first paycheck.The US Army issued .30-40 caliber Krags. The 10th US Cavalry Regiment could be a source for ammo. Some Rangers were in the 1st US Volunteer Cavalry Regt. AKA The Rough Riders. They carried Spanish Mausers.
Being that Arizona was the last state to become a part of the lower 48 (contiguous US) it only makes sense that there was still a bit of lawlessness going on in the early 20th. century. Thanks for keeping that history alive Santee. 🤠
I had the priviledge of signing the documents authorizing the Tombstone Ranger Company during my short stint as the Marshal in 2015. They were a HUGE help during special events and other Law Enforcement needs. Great group of lawmen/lawwomen. We couldn't have done our mission without them. Thank you for your service Rangers.
I found about Arizona Rangers by chance, and as a Finnish western writer, I wrote a novel called Arizona Ranger (of course in Finnish) about the Danish Arizona Ranger Jens T. Holm.
Makes me think of the ditty "Big Iron" by the great "Marty Robbins". It's the saga of the Arizona Ranger who came to town to take the outlaw "Texas Red" alive or maybe dead...."The quickness of the ranger is still talked about today. Makes me want to pull up some of Marty's old stuff.
That’s so cool! I have a hard enough time getting on a horse I couldn’t imagine sliding off and pulling a gun at the same time! Never had heard of Arizona rangers!
Glad you mention that the Arizona Rangers are still active today. When I lived in your state from 2000 to 2003 I frequently noticed them assisting in security at public events in the Cochise County area. They provided a good service to their communities.
My family has been in Arizona for over 100 years they were Mexican Settlers in Utah but had to leave. (The reason is unknown) i was lucky enough that my Great Great Great Grandmother was born on a wagon trail heading back down to Nogales (which is where most of my family was originally from) she ended up becoming a citizen by birth, but her parents were forced to go back to Mexico since this was during the Mexican Revolution/Civil war. I just wanted to say thank you for teaching me about my home i never knew about the rangers and i grew up in Tucson goes to show you how bad the AZ education hahahaha.
Those early 1900s dates up to WW1 are interesting to me! Imagine being on the road in 1903, in your new Oldsmobile, side by side with horses and buggies....and buying your gasoline from a one room, gas station with a fireplace in it and that glass bubble on top of the pump, and the branding is Standard Oil!!!!!!!! An Arizona Ranger who supplied his own sidearm during that period was just as likely to be armed with an early Colt automatic or a new Smith and Wesson hand ejector in .38 Special...... I have a Colt Pocket Hammerless Automatic .32 acp made in 1911 per the serial number, that would be my back up and a Colt New Service revolver in .45 Colt my sidearm..... Most of those '95 Winchester rifles were in .30 US Army(.30-40 Krag) Excellent rifles!
Great video, sir! Btw, do you know there is an Italian western comic called Tex Willer (Arizona ranger)? It's my favorite comic of all times. There are even some episodes in English, for example: Tex Lonesome rider.
I have had the privilege of being an Arizona Ranger twice. First starting in 2008, reaching the rank of Sergeant, and recently rejoining the Rangers and serving with a new company. It’s truly a great organization with dedicated individuals.
I just discovered this channel because of my recent interest in the old days and pocket watches, which you had a video about 4 years ago. Great channel, Sir. Subbed.
Very informative video. I had just read a more accurate date for the taming of the west was 1912.... The year Arizona became a state. You're spot on Santee.
Research the killings in Ruby Az. Bandits raided the merchantile/Post office twice 1921 and a couple years later. One of the times the manhunt made use of airplane as well as mounted posse.
I remember as a kid watching 26 Men and later learning that it eas filmed on s small private ly built western mini set near Phoenix and was torn down when the 26Men seties ended.
The less talk about of the rangers in the old west ! When a free hand of law enforcement is needed they wore the ones ! Well done Santee for bringing they up 👍🤠
Thanks again Santee for another wonderful weekend entertainment and instruction , and Keeping The Old West Alive. Cheers from California, where it’s damn hot here too !
GOOD VIDEO AS ALWAYS SIR,MY LATE AUNT ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT WILD ARIZONA AS A CHILD.SHE WOULD LOVE YOUR CHANNEL. GO BLESS P S ALL THE BEST TO YOUR OFF SCREEN WIFE.
That pic from the 40's , wow! I could see the hardness/salt in those men even 30 years later , even at that old of an age. Respect, I doubt I would even want to mess with them in 1940 at 80 something much less in their prime! Love the content TY
@@ernestoherrera2755 in a book about the gunfight at the OK Corral. It was mentioned as some type of response to the bisbee stage coach robbery I believe.
Glad to get more background on the Arizona Rangers. I had heard of them and seen badges for them but didn't know anything else about them. Thanks Santee. Don't give up, You have fans that think you do a fantastic job educating us about the West. Even if some desperados don't let ya have the last word! LOL
Dont give up Santee :) but its really nice to hear that Pew-Pew again..... Another amazing video with great information and as always - you teach us something new. Yeehaww :)
Your channel just makes history come alive. And it makes it fun and interesting and enjoyable. I've always heard about the Texas rangers and about how great they were and what they did and what they accomplished but never heard anything about the Arizona rangers. So some new history husband learned. Thank you! And I ordered some merchandise can't wait for it to come next week. So I'm going to be advertising your channel in the Pacific northwest. 🙂
Santee, Thank you for this video. I also asked about the Arizona Rangers but on the Texas Rangers video in the comments. Like I’ve said before you don’t only entertain us but you teach us about certain things we may not know.
Very awesomely awesome cool and informative interesting video, I really loved and enjoyed it. I’m definitely got a ton of inspiration for my old West inspired novel series I’m writing.
@@ArizonaGhostriders thanks 🌟👍🏼😎 for my story I’m combining the lawmen of the old West with that of modern law enforcement. The weapons in the story are going to be old west frontier weapons not modern.
Great episode, really enjoyed it. The stories seem even more interesting since we've been to some of the places mentioned, like the Yuma prison. Pew-pew to you too Mrs. Santee. Hope you and your hubby have a great weekend. JT
No joke my introduction to the concept of a Arizona ranger came from Fallout new Vegas, the "Mr. New Vegas" Station for those who play the game and were wondering, of course the song that played was the infamous "Big Iron".
My state formed a Ranger Unit to protect our territory and about 400 of them fought the British in the war of 1812. Good ole Indiana Territorial Rangers
Very interesting episode. Dun lurnd a whole buncha new thangs about the Arizona Rangers I did not know before. Keep up the great work! By the way, don't give up 🤪 pew pew. You are the trail master.
Another excellent video!! Those rangers look rough and ready to take on anyone. Although in Australia we had our fair share of roughnecks, but they disappeared before the law caught them, and we made sure of it was known, kept the crime rate down.
Absolutely sir, although we didn't have rangers roaming around, the fathers an older brothers use to go house to house checking up on thier neighbours they get feed, housed and building bonds, even the women folk were tough here, always greeting "the lone rider" or "Stranger in the parts" with a fully loaded gun , before inviting them in, which was a community thing, and any trouble makers were tracked down by the aboriginal trackers who were both hard workers and a God send to the sheep a cattle herders. I tell ya, a strong community is the best protection against the roughnecks.
My dad was born on Los Ranchos, New Mexico in 1912. Los Ranchos is a suburb of Albuquerque. In his youth he was a cowhand, sheep herder and various occupations. My mom would be at a dance and my dad and his brothers would ride into the dance hall riding their horses and shooting off their guns. Arizona and New Mexico was still the old west between the 1930's and 1950's. In some more isolated areas even to the 1960's. In my dad's retirement years he would confess to my mom of some of his deeds. He said the weight (guilt) of the men he killed got to him. She never got in to what men and how they died. They still hanged cattle rustlers then. Maybe a gun fight or knife fight in a saloon?
Great episode Santee, always love seeing or hearing from Rita 🎸🥃. Goes with that whole western bad guy good guy hot damsel in distress scenario. I watched the movie Cowboys and Aliens..... I knew that s*** was true 🤠 Shout out to all the Ghost riders, and prayers up for Steve and his surgery 🎸
Let me show you a coin trick. I will need one coin of the realm... And a cow. That was pretty ingenious. No brand, no tattoo. Thanks for the video and Best of Days to all the Ghostriders.
You finally did one on the Arizona Rangers. I have been asking ever so often for a while now. Great video and I learned some things. If I remember correctly, in the music video Beer for my Horses, Willie Nelson's character's Grandfather was an Arizona Ranger and he had his badge and guns on the wall.
hope this isnt a stupid question, when cowboys stopped for the night how did they pick the spot? how did take precautions against snakes,spiders, scorpions, mt. lions,indians,robbers.
To the town Of Agua Fria came a stranger one fine day….
Hardly spoke to folks around him, didnt have to much to say
@@AmericanMinuteman95 No one dared to ask his business. no one dared to make a slip.
The notches on his pistol numbered one and nineteen more
@@Yapaholicsanonymous00 The stranger there among them had a big iron on his hip
@@thudbasket6126 Big iron on his hiiiiiip
My dad loved being a Ranger right up until he died 14 years ago. The Rangers gave him a real nice memorial service.👍🏻
Thats awesome. His service is appreciated
Bless him always
Until Valhalla. 😢
Born a man, died a Ranger
Badass dad
Good to hear about the Arizona Rangers and I look forward to more.
I think it's time Mrs. Santee got her own series.
Oh no! Don't put that in her head!
SHE COULD DO ONE ON THE WOMENS LIFE AND STRUGGLES IN THE OLD WEST.THERE WOULDN'T BE A OLD WEST WITHOUT WOMENS.@@ArizonaGhostriders
Come On, Mrs. Santee. Do a show. Maybe Bill Brazleton, Dirty Dan and the others won't steal the last word from a lady! LOL

He thanks you
I always feel a little bit happier after learning about our country's past. The tale of the Arizona Rangers is no exception: It's got action, mystery, suspense... hell yeah.
Yup! Like creen heroes these guys.
Big Iron, big iron!
Still remember that song from the Fallout: New Vegas in-game radio. That game did a good job of capturing the feel of the old western Rangers and incorporated them into the setting.
Yep!
Texas Red learned the hard way that he couldnt match the Ranger with a big iron on his hip.
That's right
After a week in the hospital this is a great way to start my recovery weekend.
How about a video on hospitals of the old west.
WOw, glad you're home and hope it's all ok!

They do.
I always love those Winchester '95s the rangers used. Absolutely beautiful rifles.
Hope to handle one one day.
Likewise, it's the one rifle I'd want to buy above any other.
Enjoyed learning more about the Arizona Rangers. Hope you do videos on the Colorado and California Rangers. Keep up the good work.

Yes, it must have been weird. The Rangers had revolvers, Colt's, to be more precise. Some in .45, some in 44-40
Thanks Santee...been a fan of the Arizona Rangers since I first heard Marty Robbins sing “Big Iron”.
Cool!
Great tutorial my friend. The Texas rangers get all the glory. They definetly had the right attitude.
They did!

Right? Wacky. Most of these fellows had been around cattle their whole life, so I guess they learned a thing or two.

You're welcome.
I’ve never heard about the Arizona Rangers. Thank you so much for the story!
You bet!
You've never heard Big Iron?
Marty Robbins had a song about an Arizona Ranger. It was called "Big Iron On His Hip". Listen to the words real carefully.
Yep....too bad copyright laws won't let me use it.
I Learned a Lot. Never Knew about any Other Rangers. We Still Need them.
Also, I want to here a lot more from Mrs. Santee .
Pew Pew Pew LoL 😆
OK, I'll tell her.
Wow I never knew about the Arizona Rangers. Hats off to those who protected the state.
Much appreciated!

I’ve heard of the Tombstone Rangers as well…..seems like it wasn’t just a territory or state agency, even local cities seemed to have them

Thanks for the idea!
