I live my life 8-seconds at a time as an adrenaline junkie that goes event to event, matching up against some of the rankest bulls in the world in an 8-second battle for supremacy.
That's where the bull has less power against the rider and where the rider's centre of gravity meets the central point of all the bull's moves. Too far back, and the bull's kick will have amplified force...
8-seconds. Bulls don't discriminate!
That's a good age to start!
In this day and age, the size of the rodeo doesn't always equate to the calibre of the bulls.
You're going to try and find "open rodeos" as a good starting ground, which are hard to find. Buck-out bull ridings are good as well. Really, unless you know someone in your area, the only way to do so is to start googling...

They offer a little protection, but their purpose is to accentuate the visibility of the cowboy's spurring and feet movements.
It's a batwing rodeo chap. It should go most of the way and cinch up with the strap. I'd have to see it...
You could try to find some riders close to you and travel with them to an event or two. You could borrow equipment and try to ride a mount-out or exhibition, but I'd recommend finding a school somewhere and travelling to it. There's no better way to learn, in my opinion.
