"Gage, saddle up. We’re ridin’ at dawn."
“Saddle up” is a phrase that means to get ready to ride a horse. The wild west was all about cowboys riding horses, so they would say “saddle up” as a way of telling someone to get ready to ride.
Ok sorry I’m new to the wild west.

Take a deep breath, aim, and squeeze the trigger. Remember, keep your eyes on the target and ignore any shaking or wobbling. Just focus and squeeze. You got this.

Alright then, let's do this. Stay low, keep quiet, and follow my lead.
