The thought of staring down the barrel of a shotgun isn't a pleasant one. A double-barreled shotgun would make the experience twice as uncomfortable. Perhaps the designer of the Shotgun Cowboy Skull embroidered iron-on patch had that in mind when they designed the image. If nothing else, the image is intimidating.
Here, the barrel of the shotgun takes center stage. We are impressed by how well the image design and embroidery work together to create a near realistic illusion. Stare at the patch long enough and you might fool your brain into thinking you're looking at a real shotgun. It is kind of eerie that way.
At any rate, the owner of the shotgun appears to be an unhappy skeleton who has a bone to pick with you. How do you escape his wrath? Sew the patch to the back of your leather jacket or denim vest. That way, the shotgun is pointing at someone else.
In all seriousness, this 11 x 11-inch patch combines the well-known biker skeleton with a Western theme for a somewhat different look. This may not be an ideal back patch for city slickers, but it is perfect for those bikers who prefer small-town America and rural areas. If that sounds like you, we would be willing to bet you appreciate the cowboy hat with its blue band and silver stars, along with the red bandanna around the skeleton's neck.
This patch would look darn good accompanied by two smaller patches, one on each side. Perhaps an American flag and a cross? That is entirely up to you. Whatever you decide to do, we recommend you don't attempt to affix this patch with an iron. Instead, break out the needle and thread. A year or two from now, you'll be glad you did.
