Out our way the terms "greenhorn" or "tenderfoot" for a cowhand denotes a beginner. Seasoned cowhand all started out as greenhorns - some began early as little kids learning under the tutelage of their parents and family, while others came to it later in life. I, of course, was of the latter category, and I sometimes felt embarrassed by young kids who could ride and rope and even knew what the heck a "houlihan" was. (Google it, tenderfoot!) But we all had to start as beginners regardless of age - and, if we kept learning, even the worst "dude" could eventually become a real cowhand.
