Mounted on top or standing beside an animal many times their size and weight, it’s contestant against beast. In these events, the contestant attempts to out balance or out maneuver the animal’s natural instinct to rid itself of an unusual weight on its back or to escape from the clutches of the contestant. These events require a great deal of skill and experience before a contestant can become a champion. Many IGRA sanctioned rodeos will hold rodeo schools before a rodeo or during the year, where experienced competitors can give the new contestant good instruction and suggestions as to how to improve.
Bull Riding
The ultimate event of the rodeo, Bull Riding, is an advanced version of Steer Riding, but with a one-half ton more beef to contend with and the added danger that many bulls turn back on the rider and attempt to get even for having their routine disrupted. Guaranteed, once you are on the bull and the gate opens, few riders ever leave this event without being slammed to the ground and scurrying for cover, as the Bull Fighter moves in to save the cowboy or cowgirl.
Bareback Bronc Riding
In 2012, Bareback Bronc Riding was changed to an “optional” event. Due to the expense of bringing broncs and the small number of competitors in this event, most associations no longer offer Bareback Bronc Riding at their rodeos.
A specially designed collection of leather and cinches used for this event is called a “bareback riggin.” Compared to the bull rope, this one is really tied on to the animal and has a built-in hand hold. Another difference is that the rider must start the ride with both of his or her feet extended forward over the horse’s shoulders and on the first leap out of the chute, “rake” backwards toward the horse’s rump. If the rider misses this, called “marking out”, it does not matter how great the rest of the ride is, he or she will receive a DQ. If the rider is lucky enough to make the 6 seconds, he or she may be plucked to safety as the two “pick-up men” move in and attempt to rescue the rider from his or her bucking mount. Contestants may elect to ride two-handed from start to finish, but will also receive a lower score.
