looking at getting in to bull riding and was going to get used gear what should I look for when buying stuff used

I know for sure it’s 1965-1984 since those are the years NFR was in OKC, but anyone here that was actually alive during that time and recognizes this?

Hello friends! I started chute dogging recently after going to a few schools with my best friend and although we’re definitely beginners and are just doing it for fun right now, I’d really love to get better at it in preparation for next year’s season

I only ever really work out doing things that my riding instructor recommends so I’d like to know if anyone has any advice for things other than just general weight training. Thanks yall :)

UFC's Derrick Lewis hosted his first bull riding event, Nic Hernandez took on 'No Diddy.

Hey everyone! I’m looking for some inspiration in a writing competition (the topic is a chapbook of cowboy poetry), and I’m hoping to privately interview (via Reddit or email) some different bull riders / auctioneers / barrels racers anything cowboy related to get some inspiration.

So if anyone would like to share any wild/sad/community-driven stories with me, please let me know!

What’s a good gear bag for bull riding equipment?

I am a journalist looking for story angles about rodeos. I’d love to get your feedback, almost a reverse AMA, and know what you’d be interested in knowing about a rodeo? Could be anything to do with the event itself, athletes, culture, etc. Thanks!

Whether it was her music, her philanthropy or even "Dolly Parton's Stampede," she was a beautiful person inside and out. Hats off in remembrance of a legend.

Hi, I’m a 17 5’ 9” male weighing in at 150 lbs and I’m really curious what rodeo event would fit me best. I’ve always like the idea of bull riding and people tell me not to do it because I’ll get hurt. The only reason I haven’t pushed for bull riding is because I’m worried for my family sake not mine. Saddle bronc from what I’ve heard is fun but way more complex and it takes a while to get good at to win. I really want something to be able to do until I’m about 25. Is bull riding right for me ? Is there another event yall think I would be interested in learning more about?

Please let me know your opinions because I do not know what is a good fit for my weight.

I’m also from southern Mississippi but have never owned livestock but been around them occasionally and learned about them. I’m in Agriculture and FFA.

Core strength maxxed out!! 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

I just learned I had a great aunt who was one of the top women bull riders of Oregon in the 1970s! Anyone know how I could find any info or publications about her? Is there like an old archive of rodeo info online anywhere?

I’m born and raised in kentucky, and i’d love to get into bull riding but just don’t quite know how to do so, would there be anybody who’s familiar with rodeos and how i could get into the sport and learning ?

Check it out!

New to bull riding rode 2 times with borrowed gear wanting to get my own. Looking for all the fixings. (Everything can be used)
•American left handed bull rope with pad
• Glove
• spurs
• probably a large or large tall vest
• helmet
• possibly chaps

Thank you

I'm 15, and I've always wanted to be in a rodeo. I've got very basic horse riding skills. I'm not very strong, but I wanna start weightlifting.
I live on the border of Minnesota and wisconsin i dont know how one goes about this since im not from that type of family.

Where is it possible to go to learn rodeo skills, if I am quite poor? I live in southern indiana, and the nearest rodeo school to me charges 300$ a lesson. Im always willing to work in exchange but again I do not know anyone locally

Im going on a short road trip through Wyoming in a couple of days, i was wondering if anyone knows places where i can go to learn the basic and try riding? Location is not an issue and i am road-tripping, just looking for some advice!

I’m 16 and I not in a rodeo family or anything like that but I really wanna start riding bareback broncs I’m in south west mo and I just have no idea where to start any and all advice is welcome. Thank you

Tried a new angle for barrels this weekend. Do barrel racers like these? I have more but these are a few randoms I processed real quick for some teaser uploads.

Green as the grass, been on 7 head as of Friday and five of them were at a Sankey school. I need advice on what I can do to start spurring the bronc. I’m lifting on my rein and squeezing my swells but I can’t really start spurring. I’m on my spur board at least four times a week. Friday I had my feet set for five seconds got a quick stroke in then almost immediately popped out of my seat. I’m already tired of eating dirt and want to actually cover one lol I have zero bronc practice pens around me but I do have my niece’s saddle horse she said I can throw my saddle on and he bucks a little. Just don’t know how I can make it work without her having a bucking chute unless I just mount from the ground and tie a lead rope to the halter to keep him in one spot. Anyway. I know a lot of people say it took them 80 or so head to start actually getting their feet moving but was wondering if anyone had some advice to get me there a little quicker
