I’m pretty sure there is no one about these daze who is better than Annie Oakley was.

Certainly not as famous/prominent at this point in time.

Not as famous, I agree but she couldn’t have made Billy Dixon’s shot at The “Battle of Adobe Walls”. I’d place money on it. I actually don’t think Dixon could have done it twice in a row. However, at a 130 yards if I was doing the shot Trumps gone. I believe GOD saved him. Damn good thing for US

My dad was born 1.1 miles from where Annie was, in Darke Co Ohio.
