Joe Bowman, known as "The Straight Shooter," was a renowned Houston-based marksman celebrated for his exceptional trick-shooting skills and contributions to Western heritage. Born in 1925 in Johnson City, Tennessee, he moved to Houston in 1937, where he developed a passion for firearms and Western culture. With his Houston background, I'm sure he was a fan favorite at this event.
