    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Well, wife and I don't "puff up like peacocks" or "strut for attention", be we are both simply very happy about who we've met in pro-rodeo. Don't have a problem at all mentioning names, not "dropping names". My wife can't understand why you folks think we shouldn't mention names, or as you call...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Well, gcreekrch, what any judge of any sport would tell you, "if you think you can do a better job, apply and be a judge". Actually, I knew an older (40's) guy that a couple of PRCA judges wanted him to become a judge. At the time, he was supplying horses for the steer wrestling event. He told...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    During my years with PRCA, starting around 1989, and since those years, I've seen/heard crowds acknowledge, sometimes with a boost from the Announcer, a great ride in rough stock or a great time in timed events. I've seen timed events guys tip their hat or even take it off and wave at the...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Well, there are obviously "groupies" at rodeos, just like at another other event. Then there are those that can be past contestants, and them and their family know completely what is going on. I've sit in the bleachers and said to someone sitting next to me "boy, what a great time" when the time...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Well, every PRCA rodeo that I've been to, as a contestant years ago, as a fan today and even on the Cowboy Channel, I hear the rodeo announcer say the contestant/contestants names. I've also seen rodeo contestants, that have had a good time or score, take off their hat and throw it in the air...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Well, I know I've said this before, but we don't mean to sound like we are bragging about the PRCA World Champions we've met, but we were honored to meet them. We like mentioning the names of those that we met. As for myself, I really enjoyed being announced at a rodeo. Guess I just like the...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    That's ok, I understand. And, there are no specific forums online dedicated to rodeo. One, that was suppose to be, never happened. Then there is a forum for horse owners, but many on that forum don't like rodeo and I found that out thru a thread someone did. Actually, wife and I went to a...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    A big "thanks" from me! From what I've seen, on ranch documentaries on tv, the life of ranching isn't easy, especially in winter months. But, then again, it wasn't easy for me, during the winter months, taking care of hogs and crops on my step-parents small farm. But, ranching and farming have...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    Hate to say this, but you have a real problem with the word "rodeo", don't you? I'd guess you don't like ranch rodeo either, put on by the Working Ranch Cowboys Association. You shouldn't be so tough, or "negative minded" about pro-rodeo and its competitors or even those that are in the Working...

    Neither Pro-Rodeo Or Ranch Rodeo Talked About Much Here

    I think I've mentioned that we've been to one ranch rodeo, when we lived here in Colorado before. It was held in Colorado Springs. It was enjoyable and I got plenty of digital photos of it, but our interest is more in PRCA rodeos, since I was a part of that. Plenty of PRCA rodeos have been going...

    Livestock Auctions And Sales

    What a story! However, not really related to my thread, when I was on my first WestPac Cruise to Vietnam, we stopped at Subic Bay Naval Station in the Philippines. I was able to get a couple of hours of liberty (aka "free time") in Olongapo City. As I walked around, with a couple of other...

    Livestock Auctions And Sales

    I did work, for a very short time, at the Elk City Livestock Auction for the bull selling day. I sure learned how to climb a fence fast! Then, I found out I was much better working in the manufacturing industry on a computer. But, at least I tried it out.

    Livestock Auctions And Sales

    Do you go, whether to sell, buy or look? Wife and I have gone to local livestock auction, called Centennial Livestock Auction in Ft. Collins, CO. Not to buy or sell, but just to watch. We will first have breakfast at local Waffle House, which is just down the street from the auction. When we...

    Cowboy Hat Or Baseball Cap?

    Well, first Texan, to a certain point, we do "judge" and many, many people do, but just don't want to admit it. And, what a person wears and what they talk about can really depend on where they live. I've got more experience in "living in the wrong place" and "talking about the wrong things"...

    Cowboy Hat Or Baseball Cap?

    I completely disagree and I'm sure there are many multi-PRCA World Champions that would feel the say way. And, what about those ranch rodeo cowboys? Ranch rodeo is rodeo also! I've asked you this before, what about rodeo stock contractors that run a ranch, brand their cattle, etc.. Are they...

    Cowboy Hat Or Baseball Cap?

    "Drug-store cowboys" meaning, the nightclub types? Then again, myself and my "heeler" use to go to a nightclub in Temecula, California and play around on their Lap-n-Tap/Rollo Roper. He was actually able to rope the rear legs, that were on wheels, when released. The Club put the Lap-n-Tap/Rollo...

    Cowboy Hat Or Baseball Cap?

    I also remember, in the movie Billy Jack, he wore an Indian type hat, that definitely looks like the "flat brim" of today. No matter how popular they may be in parts of the U.S., we will stick with our Resistol "George Strait" style hat aka Cattlemen's cowboy hat. I absolutely love how my wife...

    Cowboy Hat Or Baseball Cap?

    Just looked at some "Buckaroo" style cowboy hats online and some actually are not flat at all. They look like the regular Resistol or Wrangler hats. Anyway, I've never seen a rodeo cowboy or cowgirl wearing one of these "flat brim" hats in the arena. Wife and I did see a few young ladies (rodeo...
