 Oklahoma Kid Story
More than over lOO years of family history has prepared
the Oklahoma Kid for his career in entertainment.

Kid's father, grandfather and great-grandfather worked in
the Wild West Show business, with names like Pawnee Bill,
Buffalo Bill and Geronimo.  The Kid grew up in Ponca City,
home of the historic
101 Ranch. He's also has relative ties
to Will Rogers in his Grandmother Delia McSpadden
generation.
Performance genes, a witty outlook and care for his fellow
man have trickled down through the generations,
and the Kid is having a ball continuing his family's legacy.

Like Will Rogers,
the Kid uses an uplifting saying in his public performances:
"It's not always how fast you run or how high you climb;
it's how high you bounce."

Tipton has been roping in one form or another for over
30
years. He has been asked to perform in a wide variety of
venues around the world. Even George W. Bush proves to
be a fan. In
2009 he Invited Marty (Kid) and his family to
attend the
4th July celebration in Woodward Oklahoma.
He was riding a horse before he could walk and at
6 he
was in the rodeo arena. He later went on to be a
professional team roper and rough stock rider. He learned
trick roping from his father and grandfather, then went on
to be professionally trained at the
101 Ranch. Because he
grew up in the center of a wild west show legacy, he
realized the heritage was his to keep alive.
From his relatives, he heard first-hand stories about the
likes of Pawnee Bill, Buffalo Bill and Annie Oakley, and he
was always surrounded by original photographs of wild
west performers. He tells the story of Geronimo, who
eventually rode in the parade with the president and shot
his last buffalo from an automobile. According to the Kid,
during shows Geronimo would offer a thousand dollars to
any man who would offer to be scalped; of course no one
volunteered. Then there's the story of Annie Oakley, a trick
shooter who was the first woman to win a competition
against a man in a shooting contest. The Kid also recalls
stories of the
101 Ranch in Ponca City, once the largest
ranch in the United States, where he was raised.
Kid is working on a second book telling in depth the
hidden stories about the wild West and why it was called
wild.
For many years Kid read books of others interpretation of
the turn of the century and he could not believe what they
said. Many of the stories were told to protect land and
reputations. Kid knows from the history passed on to him
that the west was actually even more wild than what was
published.
