Always thought you'd have to be halfassed crazy to jump off a perfectly fine horse......
Got to respect someone with a pair big enough to do it! (i'd probably rather climb up on a bull than go bulldoggin)
(in before the tree hugging limp wristed "hey you're hurting that poor animal" crowd)

Man if that ain't a cowboy's name then I don't know what is.
Rodeo is cool and it's one of the last bastions where someone can take a family and not have to worry. Hate seeing someone get hurt, though.

Pretty neat, and best of luck to him. It would be a great addition to the family legacy.
Nice! We are recording the series. My wife barrel races and I work with a few cowboy action shooters. Never took with me, but sure is fun to watch.

I'm surprised there's enough room on a bull to accommodate the balls it would take to ride one.
That's some pretty gnarly shit, LL.

That is awesome! I am watching it right now! I was on the rodeo circuit thru high school and college. When I bulldogged they called me "the human plow" as I was 6'1" and 155 when I started at 15yrold and it took awhile for me to stop them:eek: I eventually settled on calf roping and would be team roping right now if the arm wasn't a wreck:mad:
Littlelebowski did you rodeo growing up in WY?
Here is Les in action

M4Fundi, I didn't rodeo. I might have been able to with team roping but was too busy working.
Les is still in the lead for world champion!
That's some pretty tough stuff no doubt, good for him. Hope your father is doing well also.

Best of luck to him. Hope he brings home a buckle to match his dad's.
And a nice chunk of coin. :)

He won the rodeo but his buddy (who he trains and competes with) won the championships. He did quite well.
Well done! His buddy owes him a beer!
Just being in the NFR is such an achievement! I hope he made some good $ and still wears the Silver Buckle with pride:)

Good shit man.
I wish I had the balls to wrestle a steer.

Good shit man.
I wish I had the balls to wrestle a steer.
And the steer just wishes he had his balls! :D
Congratulations to your cousin, LL. That's a helluva good run.

Congrats to your brother. Very few men can claim such an accomplishment in their lives.
