Im a 15 year old girl and my dream is to bull ride. Do you think girls can do it just as well as boys?

Asked by Katrina over 11 years ago

I think one day we'll see a Female World Champ... there are some girls riding tougher dudes... just need more!

ok im just starting out right. well how do i need to train before jumping onto a big bull? because rite now im only riding steers and calfs. how can i practice balance and other things similar to that?

Asked by bullrider98 over 11 years ago

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!

are the jeans (levi's, wrangler and so on...) really necessary to ride ? are they helpful to achieve a good result ? Or are they merely a tradition ?

Asked by bullrider53 almost 12 years ago

The jeans are actually designed for the lifestyle. I'm a big Wrangler fan, and they're the market leader, followed by Cinch. They're "Cowboy Cut", meaning boot cut at the bottom, and they sit comfortably while riding. The original 13MWZ style jean is also a little more resilient in rough situations. The Belt loops are larger to accomodate the wider leather belt to wear a trophy buckle, the pockets are designed to hold your valuables and not bash you while you ride... And if a guy were to get on a bull wearing designer jeans... the beating he's about to take from the bull pales in comparison to the ribbing he'll get from the riders.

I'm 17 and want to ride a bull. How do I go about it? Do I need some kind of training. I just strongly think I can get the 8sec and would love to go to a rodeo and do so

Asked by Allison almost 12 years ago

The best thing to do is to go to a rodeo school or clinic.  They usually are 2 days long, and they give you the opportunity to learn the ground work, chute preparation and get on some easy stock to get into the swing of things.

Google "Rodeo School" and your State or Province to find the closest to you... it's a weekend you'll never forget!

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.

Is women’s viewership increasing?

Asked by Mark Herry over 11 years ago

I would say yes, just like NASCAR.

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

Asked by pat about 11 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.
