Shouldn't there be something in this article about what makes the bull jump? Ortolan88
The article should include at least a mention of the flank strap pulled at the time the chute is opened (as mentioned above.)
I understand that the events of the rodeo are contests based on the skills required in the various daily functions of the cowboy. When in the pursuit of his daily functions does a cowboy ride a wild bull? Cowboys are usually horsemen who manage the process of raising, managing, and transporting cattle. To the best of my knowledge, cowboys don't ride cows. This event in particular stands out a one specifically developed to show the courage and tenacity of the rider at the expense of the animal in question. I'd appreciate hearing any opinions on either side of this issue discussed here.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.1.18.14 ( talk • contribs) 21:12, June 13, 2004.
In my mind, a cowboy does not have to only be skilled with horses. Bull riding is a sport that takes courage and skill, and if you haven't noticed, bulls are usually not the ones hurt!!!!
In my opinion, you sound like a supporter of PETA I am also a supporter of PETA as in people eating tasty animals.
There is really no outside reason as to why rodeo bulls jump. It is either in their personality or it is not. Yes, the flank strap does provide some irritation, but that's all. It is not tied to any extrimities. It is tied above the hips. Some rodeos will allow the use of a cattle prod to get the bulls moving if they don't start by themselves. But all of that is just addition to the natural kick of the bull. There are bulls that are tested and don't jump or kick. They don't get used in professional rodeo. Some practice rodeos may use them for people who are just starting, but nothing more. They jump because the rope tied in front of their legs
Bulls buck because they are bred that way. If you look into the genetics of these athletes, the breeder's take the ones that do perform, and use them to breed offspring that perform the same. It is a well thought out process and there is a system in place to track and monitor these animals. That system is the ABBI and NBBA. The flank strap alone does not cause the animal to buck. If the animal does not have it in its blood, it is not going to perform no matter what you put on its flank.

I'm very ignorant when it comes to the nuts and bolts of how a bull rider and bull are scored, but from the events that I've watched, it seems to me that, in general, riders who successfully ride bulls that do a lot of spinning around and not very much hard bucking get scored higher than riders that successfully ride bulls that have a lot of bucks and kicks and not much consistent spinning. The rider that won the event that ran on the night of 7/5 on Vs. is a prime example of what I'm getting at. Is there a reason for this? Willbyr ( talk | contribs) 04:10, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
what is the highest bull riding score ever given, when was it given? what divison of the rodo circuit ? and who was the rider? what year was this ride in? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.113.212.40 ( talk) 18:33, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
This article is too narrow for the title - an article on bull iding should cover all traditions of bull riding sports such as Latin American Jaripeo and historical old world bull riding sports. Or it should be moved to a more fitting title - e.g. American bull riding. ·Maunus·ƛ· 02:16, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
The following content was proposed for this article, and much of it is probably suitable if we can add sources and do some copyediting: Montanabw (talk) 05:36, 6 November 2015 (UTC)
The proper care and treatment of bucking bulls is very important in being able to maintain the health, care, quality and performance of the bucking athlete. Areas that have been researched are: beneficial and healthy ways in treating the bulls, the safety of the bulls, and rules and regulations that are required to maintain the quality treatment for the bucking bulls, also chiropractic care and treatment is also readily available to help the bulls compete and exceed their top performance. These are many things that involve the care and treatment of these bucking animals.
the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), every bulls needs to receive about 20 pounds of alfalfa hay, as well as a high performance mix blend feed, which is a high protein and in which it helps to keep their endurance up. The high performance mix blend feeds contain many of vitamins and minerals to keep the bulls healthy .
Please don't put things that are linked in the article into the see also section. It's supposed to be used for things that don't fit in with the text, but are related. White Arabian Filly Neigh 21:11, 3 September 2016 (UTC)

Sections of this article suggest very strongly that only males ride bulls. Is this true? DrChrissy (talk) 23:18, 17 December 2016 (UTC)
Hi, these articles should help you. Yes, a woman has competed in the PRCA, Maggie Parker. And supposedly two who competed in lesser PBR events. I have her picture in Pinterest. Check these articles: http://billingsgazette.com/news/local/the-heart-to-overcome-professional-bull-rider-recovering-from-broken/article_5159c06f-e24f-5015-90f4-695734e2950f.html and https://bullridingmarketing.wordpress.com/2014/03/26/bullsisters/ Enjoy!

DrChrissy, where are my manners? I'm Dawn and I've just been an editor for about 3 months now. montanabw has taken me under her wing to mentor me for a bit, which so very kind of her. And her colleague White Arabian Filly has also been an invaluable aid as well. I can see you and montanabw know each other. That says a lot about you right there. My area of focus here is bull riding, I especially love the bulls and I use many means to add to my old school and modern knowledge about them. What do you focus in? I can always use new friends here, I'm so new. :) Dawnleelynn ( talk) 20:29, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
DrChrissy ( talk · contribs) Glad to hear all is well. You are right, of course, this does not belong on the article talk page. Of course you may hat our discussion. Thank you! Dawnleelynn ( talk) 22:02, 21 December 2016 (UTC) |
