I looked into it a bit more its not put on by 4h its an outside rodeo group. Sign ups closed last Friday but if there are spots they may be able to sign up maybe not depending on if there are any slots left. If he wants to he may be able. I spoke with one of the kids and his mom and they went on and on about different clinics available
how they work and how most things are about a 2 hour drive to get to.

To me its like high-school football dumb way for kids to get hurt for life. And my kid is the one that is the watch thid first to to try something one in the bunch.

I have no idea how rodeos typically work and initially was just going off what my 13 year old said whan he came to the van to ask me about it. The a little more from my wife when I was watching the stear and heifer show som friends kids were doing.

We will see if he changes his mind or if he can eve ride if he wants to tomorrow.

This is the first year they brought in a rodeo my wife said. Typically I only get a day or two off work for the fair.

That's a lot of bike...

So with that said....looks like a bull ride is a no - Brainer in your house.

Looking forward to the Video.


Yep I was not asked or inform about it. I came home from a week of work and it was in the yard along with a 125 Honda 2 stroke my now 16 year lod bought the same week.. Turd asked grandpaw to take him to go look at it and bring it home.


I thought it would eat his lunch but the kid could handel it well. Im sure ther were some wrecks I was not told about or down played. I dont fully buy a stick hoping up from the tire hit his helmet hard enough to Crack it all the way through and loose on the piece that covers his mouth like he said happened. But it broke he could figure out how to fix it and traded it for a 300ex 4 wheeler.

I would not encourage it .
I taught at a Jr high.
Always had a big show of my ranch kids at the monthly Ogden. Ut. Youth Rodeo .

The back of the chute was 10 ft. The best seats in the arena.

A student got ground off the bull, the bull started kicking, and mashing the kid.
My daughters hod holding my right leg I somehow managed to grap the kids vest with one hand and pull the kid out


I have 3 daughters, took their motorcycles horses and ATV to school, drove with valid licencing at 14, rock climbed skydived rode m
Skipped school to ride,,,,,,,,,,, motocross


I coached a few sports.
Had friends that were pro bull riders, boxers NFL ,,,,,,list goose on.


Two sports I would not let my sons do if I had boys

Downhill bike racing and bull riding
Let him ride a bronc
hopefully he gets kicked so he can have limp that hurts for a few months and wises up
JMO


Work hard play hard

Did Grandpaw nick name your son .." Turd ".


It is better to die on your feet than to live on your knees.
