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.
There aren't many similarities, other than the rocking and spin... The real deal has much more force and speed.
The biggest difference is that they are usually made of plastic and operators don't let you wear boots...And Boots (spurs) are a major tool that we use to stay on. Plus the bull rope really helps as well.
Nothing beats the real deaL!

This season, they enacted a new system. The Top-35 after the World Finals were kept on tour for 5 events. The BFTS Standings are actually points from the BFTS, the TPD, and International Events, with points being rated differently from each event, ie. more points for winning a BFTS than a TPD, but all the points are one set of qualification standings. After the 5th event, the "cut" in essence happens the Tuesday before each BFTS Event. The top 35 in the BFTS Standings (all of PBR Event Points) are drawn for that weekend's event. It's a new system that is to allow guys to move up faster, as opposed to being on a streak in the TBD and having to wait 5 events to move up.

Most guys just keep entering jackpots, bull ridings and rodeos to keep with it. If you're lucky you can get to a contractor's place and ride a few of his newer stuff or bulls that need a couple more rides on them... Another thing to do is hit a few more schools. The best way to practice is to buy a "drop barrel"; a simulated bucking bull device, and get on it every day to stay fluid. It really depends on your location for the availability of a bull riding practice pen.

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

Good stuff!
It's a combination of practice, experience that will help there. Drop barrels are good as you'll always be pushing yourself to the front, but just stick with it, the "hard part" is over!
Share Answer: 
You're going the right direction. The best thing to do would be to get/make a drop barrel and ride it as much as you can!
