[QUOTE="winmag, post: 394410, member: 22166"] Yep. Un fortunately Chas, the few things Im good at seem to leave scars or long term injuries. Oh well it was fun. I rode Bulls and Bareback Horses at Treasure Valley Community College (t.v.c.c.) on the N.I.R.A. Collegate Rodeo Circut, and then I got smart and quit riding bulls, and concentrated on Bareback Horses, and rode a year and a half of N.P.R.A. (Northwest Pro Rodeo Assn) its pro, but more like the minor leagues of rodeo. P.R.C.A. is the big leagues. I rode alot of the same Stock Contractors Horses, but the competition wasnt top of the top level. There was a pile of guys WAY better than me, and I was loosing more $ than I was making. When I woke up in the arena, and again in the hospital, The Doc, told me my right arm, shoulder and collar bone, were destroyed, and Id never be able to Rodeo again. I told him he was full of $^!*, and Id just ride left handed. But that required alot of new gear, and I wasnt making enough $ to swich anyway. Not to mention the girl I was dating and her parents (both E.M.T.'s at that rodeo) Talked me out of it for the next year or two. By then I lost the ''fire''. Lots of good times and great stories, but, looking back on it, it was not the best idea I ever had. I havent been on a Buckin Horse (Rodeo stock anyway) for years. [/QUOTE]
