Grunthal's Over, Getting Ready for Rapid City
Hey there folks. How are you doing? Well we went to Grunthal on the weekend. My little brother Boe, Tanner, his dad, and I took our rig over there. It was a great trip, dumped some bales off the roof on the way but it wasn't really a big deal. Our trailer full of people made out alright for the weekend so we were all pretty happy. I was 12 seconds on my first calf and won it the first day, 8 seconds on my bull dogging steer and won that too. Then the team roping came around and we were 7.7 seconds on our steer and we won that too. We were the only team to catch that day. The second day didn't go very good because I missed my calf and my steer. I placed 3 in the bull dogging. I hazed for Tanner on both days though and he won the bull dogging the second day so it was all in all a pretty good weekend. I have roped every day this week trying to get ready for Rapid City. Had some buds over yesterday to rope, and we had a gong show going on. I think everybody was so hurt by the 3rd time they roped we were all giving up. It was fun though. I hope this weekend goes good. We are suppose to be heading up their tonight and rodeo tomorrow and Sunday so we will see how that goes. Thanks for dropping by and we will chat at you later.

What is bull dogging?
ReplyDeletesounds like a good time, good work on winning, but should of won the second day as well. tanner is lucky he had you for a hazer.
ReplyDeleteBull dogging is more commonly known as steer wrestling. It is when a person on a horse rides by the steer on the left side, while a partner rides by the right side and keeps him running straight. The guy on the left has to fall off his horse and grab the steer by the horns and throw him to his side.
