No Rider Bull Riding... Babies.

[OneShot]

Here are some shots from a Bull futurity that I shot last month. What this is, is a competition where bucking bull contractors enter their 2 yr old bulls, and a dummy is used in place of an actual rider. The dummy has a remote release on it, they put it on the bulls like a rider would put his riding rope on them. It also is attached to the flank rope ( the rope that goes around their flank, not their balls), the bull is let out and they let him buck for 6 secs and then the remote is triggered and the dummy falls off. Now the bulls are judged on how hard the buck, how high they jump and how hard they spin, bull with the most points wins.
