Historic note: Joe Mailman, affiliated with CKBW and the LONE STARS Country Line Dancers at 5 King St., Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, Canada, B4V 1A1, learned the following steps about 1993 and brought them out in 1995 for his television show. This version is now popular in that viewing area. Circumstantial evidence suggests the stomps were added when the Big Foot Stomp was used for teaching and probably Joe's group added the holler.

Start the dance with Count 29 and make the following substitutions.

34. Right toe touch backward

4. Left foot kick forward into low kick and holler

8. Right heel scuff beside left foot and move it in a low CCW circle before placing it down in Count 9

22. Left foot stomp to close to right foot

24. Right foot stomp to close to left foot

Drop Counts 25 and 27.

NOTE: The dance is only 34 counts now. Repeat until the end of song.
