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...

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...

Attend a weekend clinic, get on some steers and go from there.

Currently there isn't any drug testing, as it takes a lot to ride bulls... stamina, focus, balance, reaction time... and there really isn't a performance enhancing drug that would help an aspect without hindering another.
Bull Riders often ride through the pain; we aren't paid performance fees, and only make money when we win or place. So, it's a balance of grit and determination, mental and physical toughness to continue riding when your body is telling you otherwise.

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...

If you can dream it, you can achieve it.
Share Answer: 
Predominantly, Bull Contractors are simply paid by the gate. They want to raise the best buckers, because the better they do, the more events they get invited to, and then get 3-4 times as much if they are selected for the Finals. As Bull Riders either do the selection or influence the selection, every "out" is a scouting day. Sometimes there will be bonuses, but those are special events or opportunities.
