I'm 70 years old and have lived in Texas, Hawaii and California. One thing I know is about ranches and the thing that early westerns got wrong often was the fact that frequently you don't see riders carrying canteens on their saddles. This is a glaring mistake as no cowpoke in his right mind would EVER go without his canteen, which not only provided water for the horseman but also for the mount at times of water scarcity. The same thing is evident in this Tom Tyler (one of my favorite actors who played the bad gunman in the classic western Stagecoach with John Wayne) movie is that only Tom was carrying a canteen while his sidekick didn't have one and that isn't the reality of the west.

Beautiful horses in those days! Fun movie even with the stiff acting, but there's many holes including that any cowboy knows better than to hold a lead-rope that's coiled. If the horse spooks and jerks away, he can rip the fingers off your hand!
Great and accurate comment Dave. Plenty of plot hole in these old westerns but they were just starting and got a lot better by the time of Open Range with Kevin Costner! StocktonRob
Unfortunately in the making of old westerns like the ones Tom Tyler starred in for decades the horses were treated miserably. Here's a couple of examples of how they did it. First off using ropes strung between trees to trip fully galloping horses, which looked good and exciting on camera but often resulted in the horses breaking their front legs resulting in them being shot on the spot, in between takes of course. Secondly, in this movie they show a white horse galloping a full speed and jumping around as it runs. A technique used to get a horse to do this was to tie a very tight leather strap around the stallion's cajones, causing them misery and also causing them to run in this manner. Modern rodeos mistreat animals in them constantly. Throwing down young calves, putting sharp burrs under saddles to get a horse to buck, etc. So when will the mistreatment of animals end in the United States? You tell me! StocktonRob
There is never any doubt who the crook is. Just look at the opening credits. It's George Chesebro, Charles King, Ted Adams or one of the other usual suspects.
Great 🎥 thank you for sharing

Forgot hat on the ground Budd !!! At end!!
That big a herd of horses and they can't track them?
50:41 There's a very similar punching scene (POV shot of puncher, followed by a reverse POV shot of punchee) in NORTH BY NORTHWEST (1959).
Happiness ✅🥰🥂
Looks like the horse Tim rides in this movie is BOY. He rode a number of different horse from white to black in color.
This is Tom Tyler in this one and not Tim McCoy! StocktonRob
In the opening credits the horse name is Phantom
