are chaps really needed for the comfort or even the safety of the rider ? or are they just to enhance the cowboy's looking ?

Asked by bullrider53 over 13 years ago

They offer a little protection, but their purpose is to accentuate the visibility of the cowboy's spurring and feet movements.

is it weird that i hold my bull rope with my left hand? because all of the high school riders hold it with their right hand.

Asked by brett about 13 years ago

no, it's not weird.  I ride left as well.  We're of the minority, but we still rawk them.

How do you talk girlfriend into lettin you bull ride my girlfriend knows I love it but she says I can't or she will dump me how do I convince her otherwise

Asked by Lee Moore over 12 years ago

If it's your passion, she should recognize that and let you do that.  

If she doesn't support you, then it's perhaps not a solid relationship.  A person should never stand in the way of someone else's dreams.

You could always do a trade... you ride bulls, she can do another hobby.

But be careful, you should really find out what her issue is with it first... and address it.

What is everything u need to start riding bulls and how much does it all cost

Asked by john over 12 years ago

Boots, jeans, hat... and you can usually borrow/buy a rope, vest, spurs at your first clinic.  

Clinics range from $250 - $750 or more.

Are bull's horns cut for safety because of and directly after Lane Frost's fatal ride? Takin' Care of Business' horns appear to be quite a bit larger in a video on you tube. Also, are helmets & vests a personal investment due to Bodacious? THANKS!

Asked by wondering over 12 years ago

Tipping horns pre-dates that fateful day, it is predominantly due to the territorial nature of bulls, and being hauled together, they would hurt each other if they had pointy tips.  Also, the tipping of horns is for the protection of riders and crew, and again, prior to that day.  Size of horns is irrelevant, it is the tip that is important, it must be larger than a silver dollar.
Helmets and vests were on the scene before Bodacious, though helmets became more popular after Tuff Hedemen's wreck and his adoption of the face mask.

Now, vests are mandatory (late 90's) and helmets are optional, though recommended.

why don't u answer all the questions

Asked by isa about 13 years ago

I do, but as I travel a lot, it sometimes takes a day or two for me to reply. 

Okay so I am a girl, and Its my dream to be a professional bull rider. Do you think that's out of the question for me?

Asked by Miranda almost 13 years ago

If you can dream it, you can achieve it.
