Clint Walker As Cheyenne Bodie Was "The Right Stuff", Through & Through

At 6' 6" and a strapping 235 lb. of solid muscle, Clint Walker has got to be the ultimate, most impressive-looking cowboy ever to set foot in a 1950's TV Western that I've ever seen.

All rugged brawn and chiseled good looks, the 29 year-old Walker certainly cut a mighty impressive image playing the title character in this superbly produced Wild West cowboy show from yesteryear.

From 1955 to 1962 the ultra-masculine Walker starred in this phenomenally popular western program that (on a weekly basis) aired its 50-minute, action-packed episodes through the courtesy of Warner Bros. Studios.

A loner, a drifter, and a jack-of-all-trades, Cheyenne Bodie was not a man of many words, but he was known to be fair-minded and just - And, as an added bonus, this husky dude was certainly quite capable of settling scores with his fists as well as with a gun.

Always towering over everyone else in the cast, Clint Walker easily ranks right up there as one of my favorite TV cowboys of all time.

To a total cowboy-junkie, like myself, Clint Walker, as Cheyenne Bodie, was "the right stuff" - A man that Western legends are made of.
