I'd do it in a heart beat if I had the chance!! I love pushing myself though. These PBR guys to me are some of the best athletes around.

RE: There tough, but.....
 

This thread reminds me of a little story from my college days. One of my best friends in college, a guy that played football with me in Dillon (great athlete) Jess Martin was his name, was and still is a very well accomplished PRO rodeo saddle bronc rider... I think Jess' s best ever finish is 3rd in the World.

Well one springwe had this recruit come in for a visit. He was kind of shooting his mouth off a bit down at the local watering hole.. He made the statement to Jess, myself and a few other guys that he rode bulls! Of course Jess and few other real deal cowboys sorta called the guy on it and took him down to the buckin shoots in the middle of the night therein Dillon and put the guy on abull. We never saw that recruit again... LMAO

Living in and around Pro Rodeo guys like Jess Martin, Ryan Mapston to name a few, those years I spent in Dillon really showed me just how athletic they were and they were as tough as they come..

here is a Bronze made of my friend Jess.. titled "Magic Martin"

I'd forgotten about this story but a long time ago I was in the practice pen and was wearing a ball cap that I'd worn hunting a few times. Back then I'd put Doe-P on my hunting clothes, (yeah, don't start) and I bucked off this bull called Snuffy who wasn't real big but had a reputation of coming after you (contrary to popular belief most of them won't bother you unless your in their way) after the ride. My hat came off as I was scrambling for the fence. I didn't realize it until I watched the tape back but ol' Snuffy had me dead to rights until he came to the hat. He stopped dead in his tracks and sniffed it, I guess it was the doe pee b/c I'd never had one do that before or after. It gave me enough time to get out of harms way. All's well that ends well. :D

Maybe, it would just depend on the situation. I do believe though that those guys on the pbr are some of the toughest guys around.

RE: There tough, but.....
 

I don't even like horses......let alone a bull....

RE: There tough, but.....
 

Bulls can be very exciting! This is a pic of my buddy's dairy bull where I hunt up north. He's not a rodeo bull but he WILL attack you if you get too close to him or "his" cows! [:-]

I stay away from the pasture that he's in when I'm out hunting.

This guy is on a place in Illinois where I hunt. He's not very aggressive but I don't turn my back on him while I'm walking by! (2400 pounds).
