Very talented athletes. To have that awareness moving right up against a large aggressive animal in motion , knowing just where to step or hold on. Every rodeo has such brave "first responders" to help those riders.

Good video, Hoss.
Agree with this. Each ride can be different but these pro's study each bull. The talent to handle each bull is different from each rider. Bulls pair up different from each rider. Technique and exact physic matter. When you spend time and learn an animal like a horse you learn control. Being at the mercy of the draw after traveling Lord knows how many miles....man what a battle to win!

I never get tired of watching these guys and you are right Thomas. Few people would ever want to go 40 secs with a Mexican fighting bull let alone make a career of it.

Bull fighting is awesome to watch. I also like watching the running of bulls. Not sure if id do it in Spain on cobblestone roads. Running from cows and bulls is enough

Took the wife to a Rodeo at the Houston Astrodome when I was working down there.I told her then,,the toughest guys in that Arena are the Rodeo "clowns" ,and there is nothing clownish about them.True professionals and fearless.

If you think it is fun to watch, you should try it. It can be a challenge. This was at the Great Falls MT Winston Recro PRCA Rodeo in 1974. I graduated from Highschool in 1975.

That's a great picture Mark and if I was weaned by 1975 I was prolly still mad about it. I'd have loved it if everything was on tape back then. Chris Ledoux would have been makin runs at the finals and legends like Rex Dunn and Lesil Harris would have been young. Leon Coffee too.
