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.
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"
Thank could probably be arranged. Save a horse...
US Rodeo Supply in the US and Bramer's Rodeo and Western Supply in Canada. Both have online stores and great email support.
depends on the event. PBR/PRCA are a few days in advance, while amateur rodeos are usually about 3 hours before the performance.

If a homeless person wants to use your bathroom, are you supposed to stop him?
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.
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!
Fundamentally, the rider is staring between the bull's shoulders, right in front of his hand, "The Spot". When the bull goes in that direction, you kinda follow those front shoulders. But it's quite difficult as they can change direction in the air, or belly roll, etc., and that's only a guide, haha. A big part of it is just matching the bull's moves a split second at a time. Resetting your feet, position, and staying in the middle. You can never guess or anticipate where or what they're going to do. They can feel that weakness and take advantage of it in a heartbeat.
