haha i’d never noticed that but now u mention it i guess they are – when you think of it, i read somewhere that the average life span in the wild west was abt 43 yrs …. myabe they are all young guys who just had a hard life haha References :
yeah, I never thought about that before. You would think a younger actor would play a cowboy in movies because the old west was dangerous and most people didn’t live past 35. I think an older actor gives the character a more experienced, tougher look as if he’s seen it all and been through it all. References :
I think it’s probably just one of those things, plus they’ll be experienced too.

Roy Rogers definitely wasn’t "middle-aged"; I coveted his horse, "Trigger"!

I think it’s because old people seem to be more wise than younger ones.
