what is the best advice you can give me for first time riders?

Asked by emily about 13 years ago

Perseverence is key.  It is very frustrating to get into as most times there seems to be so much preparation into the ride, and after the gate opens, everything seems to be over in an instant.

In addition to mental preparation and perserverence, I'd recommend stretching as much as possible, so those first buck-offs remain fun!

Are there other animals besides bulls that bull riders ride (or would like to ride)? Like, what's the NEXT level of bull-riding?

Asked by the shaman about 13 years ago

The next level of bull riding is... Bull riding. With genetics being so calculated and raising of bucking stock so refined, today's bucking bull has more power and athleticism than ever before... They're only going to get ranker. 

In the "old days" yaks were used instead of bulls at some events. But every new bull born is the "next level"

And where could I buy a bull rope?

US Rodeo Supply in the US and Bramer's Rodeo and Western Supply in Canada. Both have online stores and great email support. 

how and when do you find out what bull you drew?

Asked by pat over 12 years ago

depends on the event.  PBR/PRCA are a few days in advance, while amateur rodeos are usually about 3 hours before the performance.

Is women’s viewership increasing?

Asked by Mark Herry over 12 years ago

I would say yes, just like NASCAR.

Thank you Mark for your great questions. I can only answer so far, but I would recommend you contact the PBR Media Relations Department and the Justin Sports Medicine Team for more detailed information if necessary.

How long is a bull’s career in bull riding?

Asked by Mark Herry over 12 years ago

Most bull's start at the age of 3, and often will continue past 10 years of age.  Once Bull's are retired, they are welcomed into the breeding program and many live out their lives on their ranches.
