6'-255lbs. not round, but solid, Most of my height comes from my torso, legs are 30". SO i have great acceleration when running, but I top out quick, haha

there is a picture of me on here somewhere...
ummm, I hope Streetsmoker does not mind me posting this from his gallery...

in the middle kneeling, i put on my Walbro setup that day, and it was a hot one.




I do not want to sound like I am braggin or anything here either..but just FYI

Bench 315 for 6 reps x 3 sets right now, working my way to 405 as a one rep max..almost there..

Sqaut twice my body weight.

 

As far as I'm concerned there is no good reason to jump off of a perfectly good horse and try to wrestle a steer to the ground. It's not like he stole your woman or anything.

 

ever seen a dog that chases a car for no reason, just imagine me riding on a horse and barking after that steer.

 

That is just like sky diving....I ain't jumpin' out no plane unless it has lost a wing and the rest of it is on fire!!!!!!

 

UPDATE: Well, I talked to a guy last night that raises the steers that they use in the local Rodeo's. He said that he has guys come out all the time to pracitce, adn that I was more than welcome, and he would show me the basics, and lt me build on it from there...

He told me how he does all newbies. Puts steer in chute, I get out in front of chute, he trips chute, and prods the steer, steer runs out, my job to wrestle him down. He did inform me that the last fella went for a ride to the other end of the arena, and had dirt in his ears, mouth, nose, pretty much all orifices...

I will video this for yall..if you promise not to laugh.

 

Chute ******* is the best way to learn the technique. I've seen bean poles throw steers better than big guys simply because their technique was better. my youngest boy has started chutedogging at the youth rodeos. He rides steers and junior bulls but is still learning the chutedogging. He is tall and thin so technique will be important to him also. But he has to pick up more events in order to compete in the all around. He is also going to start broncs and saddle broncs as soon as they let him.

 

I promise not to laugh.......... Opps.

 

The closest I have come to bulldoggin {other than working the chutes(I hate working the chutes because of the doggers that blow their horses minds)} was practicing on a skid steer at the college. I'm built for it (6'2 and 220(used to be 250))but if I'm gonna get off my horse during the run I'll have the calf roped and stopped. (I need to take up calf roping.)
