A Long Shot: Buffalo Hunters vs. Quanah Parker's Warriors

The Second Battle of Adobe Walls features the legendary 1,538-yard shot heard ’round campfires ever since.

The Comanches and their Kiowa, Southern Cheyenne and Araphaho allies are hell-bent on driving buffalo hunters off their land. The hunters have already decimated the herds on the Northern Plains. Now these hunters have set up shop near Adobe Walls, deep in Comanche territory, in the Texas Panhandle.
