SAVAGE PAMPAS NEEDS A SAVAGE WEAPON

I knew about this movie years ago but only recently watched it on Y/T. It is actually a great action movie with a good story line. The soldiers in the frontier fort are deserting because there aren't any women available, so the brass hires 9 prostitutes to fill the needs. Trouble is, that during the trip to the fort they are attacked by renegades and Indians who try and stop them. After the big battle (mandatory), they move on and continue much as before. In the other reviews they mention "these balls on a rope" weapons that the Indians use. That is called a BOLO which is 3 ropes tied at the middle with a ball at each end. When thrown properly it can trip up a man or bring down a horse. The BOLO is sort of a "national weapon of Argentina". I have a neighbor who flies to Argentina and then goes on this long ride inland lasting several days. They stay at "camps" along the way. After a good weeks riding he returns home??? That is not my idea of a holiday but to each his own.
