Letter from the Editor Howdy!

Welcome to the February issue of Humps N Horns. With the new season just getting under way, there has been no shortage of both exciting and heart-breaking news.

One of the most exciting things to watch has been the return of Valdiron de Olivieira. Not many gave him a chance to return to bull riding’s biggest stage but he has done that and done quite well for himself in the first few weeks.

Gage Gay has certainly had his share of struggles in the past couple of seasons so it was great to see him jump out and ride four out of four bulls in New York City’s Madison Square Garden. However, as we have seen time and time again, it’s not if you get hurt in bull riding but when and how bad. It is sad to see Gage suffer such a bad knee injury which could sideline hime for the next 4-5 months. We wish him a speedy recovery and look forward to see him continue his winning ways in 2018.

I would like to remind you that if your subscription is about to end, you will need to call our office, go online, or send in the renewal form (below) to make sure you don’t miss a single issue.

We are always so grateful for your support and everything you do to make Humps N Horns the premier bull riding magazine in the world.

Until next time, Terry

We hope you enjoy this issue of HNH which is full of some great articles featuring some familiar faces of the PBR including Brendon Clark, Jerome and Tiffany Davis, and Flint.

Talking “Bull” with Brayden

Hi my name is Brayden “Hollywood” Brown. I ride miniature bulls in a really big organization called the MBR, Miniature Bull Riders. I have mentioned it before, but today I’m going to tell you a lot more about it. So let’s get in to it.

We ride all over the country. Our world finals is in Las Vegas, Nevada. This year our season starts in March in New Mexico. The MBR has multiple contractors like S&S bucking bulls, Sam Leal’s bucking bulls, Cirildo & Lily Leal bucking bulls. Chris Shivers and the Leals are very nice Christian people. They also run the MBR. I think it is fun and very exciting to know them. They give us a chance to be legends.

In the MBR, you travel a lot. Whether it’s in Texas to Las Vegas or New Mexico it’s a lot of travel. Going big places means bright lights, meeting legends, and yes getting to swim in jacuzzis. We get to ride in the same chutes and use the same judges as the PBR. We get to meet and hang out with a lot of PBR riders. We also ride with kids from all over: Utah, Arkansas, Louisiana, Oklahoma, Alabama, Mississippi, North Carolina, and yes Texas. The MBR

can also help you get in the PBR, which would be a dream come true. If you ride with the best you will be the best!

You can watch my buddies and I ride during PBR events all around the country. The next time you go to a PBR, look for the Miniature Bull Riders.

The MBR has one coming up February 24th at AT&T Stadium during the Iron Cowboy. Hope to see you there.

I look forward to writing to you each month. To find out more about me go to Facebook @ Brayden Hollywood Brown.

Thank you, Brayden Hollywood Brown

Grace and Responsibility....

A common reaction by people under the spirit of religion toward those who present Grace is the accusation that they are saying anything goes and sin is the way to live. That is idiotic thinking if you understand Grace. Grace affords us right standing with Father even though we fail, while it places responsibility in our laps and trusts us, no matter what we may do with it. When we understand the truth of His finished work we will want to be responsible with it because we see how valuable it is to us and to all humanity.

Never is right standing with Father at risk to be taken off the table for us who are in Christ Jesus, although we do sometimes act irresponsibly with His Love and Grace. Our irresponsibility can never undo what was done by The Father through Jesus.

It can however, rearrange and damage or even destroy our life here on earth or other lives around us. Being responsible with it is just common sense and shows our respect for Father’s Love, it’s not a requirement to keep from losing it.

I don’t remember reading that Jesus ever followed those around who He showed Grace to so He could make sure they were being responsible with It. He showed them value and then sent them off to own the value for themselves. He trusts us with the gift of Grace (because His Spirit lives inside us), even though we may take it for granted at some level and are not always 100% responsible. He still trusts us with it. He’s not taking it back because when He gave it to us He knew we really needed it. He also knew that we would miss or else we would have not needed it. Relax, be at peace and walk in His Grace!!!

Jesus Loves You, Cody Custer

Our time here on this planet is limited so we should make sure that we make good use of what time we do have. It should be done out of love for a Father and for the ones He allows us to influence. When we are gone there will still be effects left here from what our life represented. What’s that going to look like for those you’ve left on the planet? Will they be living in freedom to a Loving Father or under a bondage to a God who they really aren’t sure they can trust? I’m not talking about us walking on egg shells and never messing up. I’m talking about bringing life to the world and leaving life after ours is finished here.

If you regularly take care of your feet, you can avoid many of the problems that come with foot pain or misaligned feet. So, what can you do to care for your feet?

Why we need healthy feet

How to Care for Your Feet?

Have you ever thought about how important it is to have healthy feet? Most of us spend the majority of our waking hours every day on our feet. In fact, our quality of life is greatly affected by the condition of our feet. We need our feet to take part in most of our daily activities – walking or driving to work, getting around the house, playing sports, and going shopping. Even when we are sitting down, it is still important to care for our feet.

Each foot has 26 bones in it. So, both feet together account for about 25% of all the bones we have in our body. All of these are supported by ligaments and muscles. Even if one of the bones, ligaments, or muscles becomes damaged or misaligned your whole body can be affected.

When we have foot pain, we usually start walking differently to compensate for it. This puts pressure and strain on other parts of the body, which creates a chain reaction of misalignment throughout the entire body.

Some of the problems that can be caused by foot problems and misaligned feet are: • Back pain • Hip pain • Knee pain

Our feet are the foundation of our body. We all know what happens to a building if it is built on a weak foundation, or if the foundation becomes damaged. The whole building can start to crack and crumble. Healthy feet mean a healthy body.

It is important to care for your feet every day, not just when they become sore or bothersome. Here are some ways that you can care for your feet daily: • Wash your feet every day. This means more than just letting water and soap run over them in the shower. It’s important to thoroughly wash your feet with soap, making sure to also wash between your toes. Then make sure to dry them properly.

• Moisturize your feet. It’s easy for our feet to become dry and cracked. So applying a good moisturizer after washing can help keep feet soft and supple, but avoid getting moisturizer between your toes.

• Alternate your shoes. If you can afford it, alternate the shoes you wear each day. This helps them to air properly and your shoes will last longer. An interesting study showed that runners who alternated their running shoes every day had a 39% lower risk of injury.

Pain in these areas can, in turn, lead to other problems in the body. So, it is vital that we take care of our feet.

However, to keep feet healthy and in good shape, you need to do more than just care for your feet daily. It is important to regularly exercise and stretch your feet. What are some good exercises to strengthen your feet?

Just as it is important to exercise and stretch other muscles in the body, it is equally important to exercise and stretch the muscles and ligaments in our feet. These become stronger, resulting in better balance, mobility, and improved flexibility.

Things to Remember when Exercising and Stretching Before carrying out any exercise, it is important to remember a few facts: • You should not feel pain during an exercise. If you do

Humps-Horns.com · 10 · February 2018

experience pain, either be more gentle or stop the exercise altogether.

• Sudden movements while exercising can cause more damage.

• Don’t hold your breath while exercising, but continue to breathe regularly.

Here are some useful exercises and stretches to keep your feet healthy and in good shape.

1. The Ball Roll (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the ball roll is to work the muscles on the sole of the feet, called the plantar fascia.

For this, you will need a small ball, such as a tennis, golf, or lacrosse ball.

3. Keep your leg straight and gently pull the towel toward you.

4. Hold for 30 seconds, relax for 3 seconds, and then repeat.

5. Do this 10 times for each leg Benefits to the feet It is important that muscles on the lower leg are strong because these will keep the ankle joints stable. This stretch can prevent injury and relieve foot and ankle pain.

3. Ankle Range of Motion (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the ankle range of motion exercise is to strengthen the ankle and muscles in your feet and legs. It also works the top of your foot. This can help reduce any stiffness or swelling in the ankle.

For this exercise, no special equipment is needed.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit on a chair and place the ball under the sole of your foot.

2. Gently roll the ball under the arch of your foot in a back and forth motion between the heel and toes. Work in some gentle circular motions as well.

3. Keep rolling for about 2 minutes, then switch to the other foot.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit on a chair or the end of a bed so that your feet don’t touch the floor.

2. Point your toe towards the floor and use your foot to write each letter of the alphabet.

Benefits to the feet This strengthens the plantar fascia and can help prevent injuries. This exercise can improve stability and also relieve pain if you experience any on the sole of your foot.

Benefits to the feet This helps to keep your ankles strong so that your gait (how you walk) is not affected. This exercise also helps to prevent injury to the feet or ankles because of weakened muscles. If you have suffered an injury, it can help restore mobility to your feet.

2. Towel Stretch (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the towel stretch is to stretch the calf muscle in the back of the leg and strengthen the ankle. This exercise is important if you have suffered damage to the calf muscle or ankle.

For this, you will need a hand towel.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit on the floor with both legs straight out in front of you.

2. Hold both ends of the towel and loop it around one foot.

For the exercise to be effective, it is important not to move your leg, but to only use your foot and ankle to ‘write’ the letters.

4. Marble Pickup (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the marble pickup exercise is to stretch and strengthen the muscles around the ankle. This is also a great exercise to get the toes moving and increase general mobility in the feet.

For this, you will need about 20 marbles or small balls.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit on a chair with both feet flat on the floor.

2. Put 20 marbles and a cup in front of you.

3. Use your toes to pick up one marble at a time

Humps-Horns.com · 11 · February 2018

and place them in the cup.

4. Keep doing this until you have picked all the marbles (10 marbles for each foot). Just remember not to have the marbles too far away from your feet. You don’t want to fall off the chair!

Benefits to the feet This exercise is good to prevent heel pain and stiffness in the feet. It will keep the feet and toes flexible. It is also especially beneficial for runners and dancers.

5. Towel Curls (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the towel curls exercise is similar to the marble pickup exercise. It is good to strengthen the ankle and the connected muscles and it will keep your feet flexible.

For this, you will need a towel.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit on a chair with both feet flat on the ground.

2. Place the towel in front of you and rest both feet on the towel.

3. Using your toes, grab the towel and curl it towards you. The towel should scrunch up with each motion so that it looks a bit like a paper fan. Use all of your toes, including the little toe.

4. Next, use your toes to uncurl the towel by pushing it back out.

5. Relax and repeat 5 times.

If you want to make it a bit more challenging, you can place a weight on the edge of the towel.

Benefits to the feet This improves flexibility in the feet and it can help prevent heel pain and stiffness. It is a good exercise for the toes as well because our toes are essential for proper balance.

6. Heel Reliever (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the heel reliever is to stretch the muscles and tissue that are in the heel. This can help women who wear high heels to relieve foot and heel pain.

foot against your inner thigh.

2. Hook one thumb around your pinky toe and your other thumb around your big toe and wrap your fingers around the sole. (Don’t worry, you can bend your knee if necessary) 3. Gently squeeze your sole to flex your feet and at the same time press your thumbs away from each other to gently pull your toes apart.

4. Hold and massage the sole of your foot for about 30 seconds. Repeat twice.

5. Exercise the other foot.

Benefits to the feet This is very beneficial to ease discomfort in the feet. It is also a good exercise for those who spend a lot of time on their feet because it helps to prevent pain.

7. Toe Stretch (This can be carried out daily.)

The purpose of the toe stretch is to keep the toes flexible and provide overall benefits to the feet.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit in a chair with one leg crossed over the other one, with one ankle rested on the other knee.

2. Interlace the fingers from your opposite hand with the toes (i.e. right foot and left hand). It should look like you are ‘holding hands’ with your foot!

3. Squeeze your fingers and toes together. Hold for around 10 seconds.

4. Stretch wide for around 10 seconds.

5. Repeat 3 times for each foot.

Benefits to the feet This is a very relaxing exercise for the feet. It can ease the discomfort and pain that comes from being on your feet for an extended time. It also benefits mobility and prevents stiffness or discomfort in the feet.

There is no special equipment needed for this exercise.

8. Ankle Flex / Plantar (sole) Flex (3 times per week) The purpose of the ankle and plantar flex exercise is to strengthen the calf muscle and also the sole of the foot. It is important that these muscles are strong to have stability when walking.

How to do the exercise: 1. Sit with one leg extended and the other

Worry, Worry, Worry

Keno

Often our lives are consumed with worry. Use of anti-depressants and anxiety medications are at an all-time high in our nation.

Often our health suffers because of it. We owe it to ourselves to take a step back, take a deep breath and relax just a bit. I’d like to share an article with you that I recently read. It was written by Joshua V. Best.

Everyone knows the signs: sleepless nights, sick stomachs, mental breakdowns, deep depression, hiding away, high blood pressure. turning to drugs and alcohol, etc... These are indicators an individual has fallen victim to his own worry.

Worry eats people alive, and Christians are not immune. It touches the lives of virtually every family and affects millions of people every single day, touching all walks of life in myriad circumstances: The educated worry because of everything they know, while the uneducated worry because they know so little.

The rich worry because they have so much, while the poor worry because they have so little. The old worry because they aren’t young, but the young worry because they aren’t older.

Worry takes so much time for so many folks, interfering with everyday action, sometimes even making people physically ill. It remains, however, one of those silent problems few seem to want to talk about. This is not just a psychological issue, though, and there may be many who would be surprised to learn that worry is prohibited by God (Matthew 6:25-34). “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life ...” (Matthew 6:25).

The unfortunate fact remains that many Christians do not consult the word of God for their daily problems, failing to realize that anything can be properly addressed using the wisdom and knowknowledge from. Yet, these same people will consult doctors, read worldly books, listen to what Oprah or Dr. Phil has to say, etc.

We need to address worry from a biblical standpoint, realizing it as a problem and habit that can cause us to be lost eternally.

So how can we stop the sin of worry, and do so according to God’s Word?

Around The

Horn

with Bucking Bull TV’s Jeff Bressler

Talk about a Champions Midas touch!

Four time PRCA World Champion Sage Kimzey moved from Oklahoma to Texas last year. That new residence gave him the opportunity to compete in the PRCA Texas Circuit. He competed in the Texas Circuit Finals Rodeo in Waco the last weekend in December and promptly won the buckle.

Kimzey rode three head for 244 points and won $3,025. For a cowboy used to winning hundreds of thousands at a time, the pay window provided pocket change.

The Circuit win does though give Kimzey a ticket to the National Circuit Finals Championship this April in Kissimmee, Florida.

I’ve been to the Texas Circuit Finals a few times and this edition was status quo, and that’s a disappointment. This event cannot generate a good crowd. I can’t figure it out. In the bull riding section were Kimzey, Trey Benton III, 2017 National College Finals Rodeo Champion and NFR qualifier Cole Melancon, PRCA Rookie of the Year Boudreaux Campbell and seasoned veterans such as Jeff Askey and Elliot Jacoby. It was worth the price of admission just to see the bull riding let alone a rodeo that featured multiple 2017 NFR qualifiers. I don’t know the answer to the small crowds but some of the best bull riders in the world come out of Texas. Let’s support them on their home turf.

Series rides, nineteen 90 point rides, he went to the PBR Finals 10 times and won the Finals Championship in 2006. He also had a desire to compete in the PRCA for a while and made a huge mark.

In 2011 he won the average title at the National Finals Rodeo.

Since retirement from riding, LJ has proven himself to be a top breeder and stock contractor. He is also dedicating himself to seeing the next class of professional bull riders thrive. LJ promotes his own LJ JENKINS BULL RIDING TOUR but also participates in other events where he can nurture young cowboys to be the best they can be.

So why the LJ tribute?

On New Year’s Eve at a Danger Zone Bullriding in Claremore, Oklahoma LJ came out of retirement for a night and rode one for 86.5 points. An amazing ride in that if you compare the video, which you can find on a number of social media sites, to the LJ of his PBR prime there “ain’t” much difference!! ____________________________________________________ If you’re a PBR fan it was sad to hear that Shane Proctor has announced he will no longer compete in their events. At 33 years old Shane realizes his time to achieve other goals on his bucket list is running out.

____________________________________________________

His enviable goal for 2018 is to become the PRCA All Around Champion by competing in at least 2 different rodeo events.

LJ Jenkins was not only one of the best bull riders of his era, but he was, and continues to be a fan favorite. Unfortunately as many of you remember he fractured his C1 vertebra at PBR in Napa, Idaho back in 2015.

Many fans who just follow bull riding might not realize that Shane is also a world class bronc rider. Many in the rodeo industry actually say Shane is a better bronc rider then bull rider.

Instead of throwing caution to the wind, LJ made the right decision by retiring and pursuing other industry options.

Shane to the surprise of many PBR fans snuck in the 2011 PRCA World Championship while competing for both Associations. An amazing feat!

LJ ended his professional career in the PBR with 320 Premier

Good luck to Shane as he starts the road to an All Around buckle.

It was great to be in the press area for the first PBR 25th Anniversary Tour event of the season at Madison Square Garden last month.

With the Garden being the only place within striking distance that local bull riding fans can see any action live and in person, the crowds are to say the least enthusiastic!

Jeff Bressler is the Executive Producer of Bucking Bull TV. His Weekly Bucking Bull Report is the internets most viewed independent bucking bull program.

BBTV will also be coming to CARBON TV this month.

Over the last several years many New Yorkers have embraced the sport and have a great knowledge of the riders, bulls and rules.

The definitive sign of New Yorkers though is when a judge’s call comes into dispute. To hear 15,000+ fans loudly boo a decision makes you feel like you are at a Knicks or Rangers games. Two sports cultures clashing…and it’s a lot of fun to watch!!

Davis Rodeo Ranch

By Kelly B. Robbins

Jerome Davis is a legendary name in bull riding lore. He carved his notch in the history of the “toughest sport on dirt” when he won the 1995 PRCA World Bull Riding Championship.

A native of North Carolina, he was the first bull rider east of the Mississippi to win that Championship. Jerome is also the youngest member of the twenty original cowboys who met in a Scottsdale, Arizona motel room in April of 1992 to form the Professional Bull Riders. Each invested $1,000 to start what has become the world’s premier bull riding organization.

In an interview by Bucking Bull TV, Jerome said, “At the time, people were sure we were crazy, but today it doesn’t look too bad. There were twenty of us that came together that day and

decided that bull riding can be a stand-alone sport. We all pitched in a thousand bucks. Not many people can invest a thousand bucks and turn it into a couple million.”

“Randy Bernard (former CEO of the PBR) once asked me when I thought bull riding would be where it needs to be,” Jerome continued. “I told him when a bull rider made a million dollars in a season. It is humbling and pretty darn cool to see where it’s at today. I am excited to have been a part of it. When you see guys like Jess Lockwood, a 20-year-old kid able to earn almost two million dollars, it makes you feel really good.”

Jerome rode his first bull at the age of 11. He didn’t ride him for the full eight seconds, but after that ride he knew he was going to be a bull rider. Jerome won his first buckle as a freshman in high school. He rode in the 1989 National High School Finals and was named the North Carolina State Rodeo Champion in 1990.

Jerome attended Odessa Junior College in Odessa, Texas and won the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association’s Bull Riding Championship his freshman year. After that he went pro, joining the PRCA. In 1993, at an event in Del Rio, Texas, Jerome was cast as a stunt double to Luke Perry, who was starring in the movie “8 Seconds”, the story of legendary bull rider Lane Frost.

early in his pro career, Jerome went to a horse auction and ran into Tiffany Brady, an old friend. Tiffany’s parents, Rodger and Linda Brady, owned All Around Rodeo Company and she grew up helping them with the business. It wasn’t long before Jerome and Tiffany were dating. That Christmas, Tiffany gave Jerome 22 head of cattle, including 12 bucking heifers. This was the birth of their bucking bull business.

Tiffany and Jerome were engaged just before the start of the 1998 PBR season, with a wedding date planned in May. The first two months of the season saw Jerome on the top of his game. He was ranked No. 1 in the PBR and had out-lasted 14 of 17 bulls to the eight second buzzer.

But on March 14, 1998, tragedy struck when Jerome climbed aboard Knock ‘Em Out John in Fort Worth. He was knocked unconscious and thrown head first into the ground. His neck was broken, and he was paralyzed from the chest down. He was told he would never walk again and the future suddenly looked very different for this champion cowboy.

But Jerome Davis is a champion and he has a champion’s heart and a passion for bull riding. Lying there in the hospital, he considered the future with a champion’s attitude and started making plans to host a PBR Touring Pro event at Davis Rodeo Ranch in Archdale, North Carolina. Jerome and his

dad, Carson, had built the arena several years before, and hosted weekly rodeo events there. He made phone calls and started lining up sponsors. “I needed to have something to do, something to look forward to, something to reach for,” Jerome shared. “This year the Jerome Davis PBR Invitational will hold it’s 20th annual event on Labor Day weekend.”

Jerome and Tiffany got married in 1998 and started working together to build their bucking bull operation. “We keep about a hundred head of bucking bulls on our 80-acre spread,” Jerome said. “The mama cows are kept at Tiffany’s folks ranch.

We hold an online production sale every March through TheBreedersConnection.com. Our sale this year will be March 20 & 21.” They travel together and Tiffany flanks the bulls at all of the events.

They also hold an annual one-day youth rodeo. The ‘He Paid Your Fees’ rodeo, held the first weekend in October, has no entry fee. “The contestants are just required to attend the Saturday church service,” Jerome offered. “We see a bunch of folks get saved every year. Last year we had over 800 contestants.

The price of admission for fans is two cans of food, which are donated to the local food bank. The rodeo community pulls together and we make quite a day of it. The prizes include four all-around saddles and 58 buckles. A buckle goes to the top three in every event.”

Jerome is also an excellent motivational speaker and is frequently asked to address different events. Anyone interested in booking Jerome to speak can contact him via email at: DavisRodeo@JeromeDavis.com.

Jerome and Tiffany have worked hard to breed their bulls and have raised some of the toughest bulls in the PBR. Bulls like 691 Superfreak, 06 Loco Freak, and 918 Freakster. “My favorite bull right now is Le Grande,” Jerome shared. “He’s a son of D&H Cattle Company’s Brutus and his mama is a cow that is a full sister to Crosswire. He’s big and strong and he’s going to make a good rider bull this year.”

Jerome and Tiffany would like to thank their sponsors, Total Feeds, Wrangler Jeans, Big Tex Trailers, and Priefert Farm and Ranch Equipment. “If you’re looking for a good bull feed, try Total Feeds,” Jerome advised.

“If I could walk today, I’d love to be back in the middle of it,” Jerome confessed. “Nobody loved to ride bulls as much as I did back in the day. I have a passion for bull riding.” Because he is a true champion, Jerome refused to give up the sport he had helped to build. Now, 20 years later, Jerome still makes his living in the sport he loves.

Looking Back -

Brendon Clark

By Barbara Pinnella

If anyone has been watching bull riding for more than four years you will remember PBR’s Brendon Clark. If you are a new aficionado you have probably heard of him. Handsome, sometimes emotional, and extremely talented, this Australian retired at the end of the 2013 season. During those 11 years, he was one of a handful of bull riders to earn $1 million dollars in the sport. Humps N Horns Bull Riding Magazine was able to talk with Brendon about the different phases of his life.

From the time he was young, Clark wanted to be a bull rider. But unlike many, his family was not involved in rodeo. Rather, his father was doing a job on a ranch and when he was very young, Clark would accompany him. That is where he developed his interest in the sport.

“That was where I saw it the first time; I never really knew what it was. I grew up in a rugby league family. Interestingly, the guys that were practicing on that ranch were the ones who taught me how to ride.

“I started riding when I was six years old,” Brendon continued. “I grew up riding little cows in Australia, and for me bull riding was always what I wanted to do. I had some success as a junior in Australia and it started there. The more success I had the more I wanted. I never really knew whether I could be that good, but that’s what I wanted.”

Brendon also was riding horses, something he had always done, and eventually began roping as well.

Humps-Horns.com · 21 · February 2018

“I really just fell into the roping. I went to a couple of rodeo camps and started roping there. I kind of taught myself how to rope, and then I got some help. I never really had my own rope horse, I had to make my own, so that’s where the horse training came in, as well. I always felt that I roped better than I rode bulls, but there was more money in riding bulls,” he said with laugh.

Brendon began his career in his home country, winning two Australian bull riding titles. He made the move to the States in 2003 and from that time until he rode his last bull he rode in the PBR. He was very successful and there were many memorable moments for him in his 13-year career.

“Well, when I first got to the Built Ford Tough Series that was obviously a big milestone for me. In my eyes, when I first came here, only the best riders in the world made it to the BFTS. Those were guys I had looked up to and idolized, and I really didn’t put myself in that category, so it was cool to qualify and get into the BFTS that first time.

“Winning my first event was where it all kind of changed for me, because it made me realize that I was good enough to be there. And I won that first event riding Blueberry Wine (scoring 92 points), and he was a legendary bull who was only ridden a handful of times. Qualifying for my first World Finals was a big thing, that’s what every bull riders’ goal is. There have been other things along the way, but those are the ones that stick out the most.”

There were a lot of bull riders who were instrumental in Clark’s life, but the one man he looked up to the most was 1998 PBR World Champion and fellow Australian Troy Dunn. Brendon believes that Dunn is one of the best bull riders to ever live, and he tried to copy his style a bit.

“He also helped me a lot, he was the one who brought me over here and got me set up. It was great to have someone you’ve looked up to as a mentor also help you out. There were other sports figures that I looked up to as well. I admired the way they did things and the fact they were winners.”

Clark keeps in touch with some of the other bull riders, but recognizes that they all have their own separate lives now. He doesn’t know many of the new young guys, but he will touch base with Ross Coleman, Luke Snyder, and Justin McBride every once in a while. He will also watch the PBR when he can, which isn’t too often. Sometimes he will attend one that is close to his home in California. But does he miss riding?

“No, I don’t miss riding at all,” he said without hesitation. “I miss the guys and the friendships, and being at the events. I miss the people behind the scenes that were family for so many years.

Many of them are still there. But I don’t miss the riding.

“I had an injury for most of my career that gradually got worse and worse, and made it hard for me to hang on to my rope. But basically, the reason I retired was that I didn’t feel like, with that injury, it was possible for me to be able to continue to ride at the level I wanted to be at. I didn’t want to just keep showing up until I just couldn’t do it anymore.

“It was a good time to stop. I was still able to win, and was having some success riding bulls of that caliber, so it was time to go. I always rode with a goal in mind, and wanted to be able to do it at the level I wanted, and when I couldn’t do it at the highest level I just didn’t want to do it anymore. It wasn’t a very hard decision. It was time, and I was ready to accept that. I was happy with it.”

Humps-Horns.com · 22 · February 2018

Brendon always liked horses and training them, and through his bull riding, he got to meet a lot of horse trainers. He loves the cutting, the reigning and the cow horses, and he really likes working with problem horses.

“The problem horses really intrigued me. A lot of the best trainers in the world watched the PBR on television when I was riding and I got to meet many of them, whether it be through sponsors, or me going to shows and introducing myself, things like that. The last several years of my career I really fell in love with the training and realized that this was what I wanted to do when I finished bull riding.”

Brendon and his wife Allison have a son Casyn, who will be four years old in February. Clark laughed when I asked him what he likes to do in his free time, mainly because he doesn’t have much of it. He gets the most enjoyment out of being with his family, and really enjoys spending time with his son.

“It is fun, he’s with me a lot,” Clark told us. “I’m lucky I get to spend time with him. I don’t really have to go anywhere or do anything. Just watching Casyn grow makes me happy, so when I’m not around the horses that’s what I enjoy. He does have a pony but he really doesn’t ride that much, he isn’t into it right now. He likes bicycles, cars and trucks, monster trucks, that sort of thing. But I’m sure one day he will decide he wants to ride.”

Brendon won’t push him. If Casyn wants to ride horses, fine. If not, that will be alright as well. We miss seeing Clark on the PBR tour, but he is happy to be working with a different type of fourlegged animal, and his training business is quite successful. We want to thank him for his time, and wish him all the luck with his horses.

It was 3 a.m. when Ty Murray woke.

Gladiators and the Beast Pit were two things on his mind.

He and longtime business partner David Allen, who have coproduced the PBR’s wildly successful Ty Murray Invitational, in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for the past 22 years, had been talking about was to continue making the annual event the best experience possible.

It was 10 years ago when they moved the event from Tingly Arena to The Pit. It is the smallest configuration used at the elite televised level of competition.

The three-day event has been a sellout in recent years and fans are literally on top of the action. In fact, those in the front rows are often kicked with dirt and, umm, other atmosphere thrown from the backside of bucking bulls.

It is among the most popular PBR events.

That said, Murray woke up and began typing into his iPhone.

He wrote terms like Munerarius – giver of the games – and Auctoratio, which is the swearing in of Gladiators. He continued typing—writing that he wanted the six meanest Mexican fighting bulls available – The Spaniard and Helter Skelter among them – and four of grittiest American freestyle bullfighters in Gladiatorlike match up.

As continued typing, he even came up with an oath.

“I _________ will go forth with the bravery and toughness that would make the greats who came before me proud. I will show the guts and effort that this event embodies and deserves. I am a man and will act as so on this quest for true grit. This I promise.”

“For me, the swearing in of the Gladiators is the heart and soul of what it’s about,” said Murray, who added, “The idea came to me in the middle of the night. I woke up with it.”

For the next five hours, he continued typing his ideas.

And finally, at 8 a.m., he called Shorty Gorham.

“Shorty is a great guy and a very good friend of mine,” Murray said, “and he’s the very first person I called.

For the better part of 20 minutes, Murray shared his idea.

Gorham, who is best known for cowboy protection role with the PBR, recently formed Shorty Gorham’s American Freestyle Bullfighting. Murray wasn’t sure how his idea would be received.

Humps-Horns.com · 24 · February 2018

“I love it.”

When Murray paused long enough for Gorham to get a word in edge-wise, those were the first three words he said.

Murray replied, “Well, good. You’re going to help me make this happen.”

And so in its first full season of competition, AFB be featured March 16-18 during the intermission of the Ty Murray Invitational.

The four-man event will feature Dalton Brody, Noah Krepps, Alex McWilliams and Tristan Seargeant.

Two of the four bullfighters will face off on Friday night and two other on Saturday. With the winner of each night advancing to Sunday’s final matchup. If both bullfighters happen to use the fence, then neither one advances.

touching, grabbing or climbing the fence. There’s no barrel and nowhere to hide and if a bullfighter uses the fence in any way, they’re disqualified.

“You’ve got to exist in that small arena for 30 seconds,” he added.

“If you touch the fence you lose.”

“I love the rules,” McWilliams said.

McWilliams, 18, learned how to bullfight – both freestyle and cowboy protection – from Gorham’s PBR cohorts Frank Newsom and Cody Webster.

Newsom always stressed making rounds and, in fact, according to McWilliams, anytime he went to the fence for any reason other than an injury, Newsom would make him do pushups.

“So I don’t much like the fence,” McWilliams said.

There’s a catch.

There’s one other difference.

Actually, there are a few things that make this particular American freestyle event different from traditional freestyle events.

There are no judges.

“I want to see them survive 30 seconds,” said Murray, without

The audience will determine who advances and who ultimately wins.

Humps-Horns.com · 26 · February 2018

“To me, that’s where it’s going to be different,” Murray said.

After each of the first two rounds, the bullfighters will stand on either said of the out gate. Murray or Munerarius – the giver of the games – will stand above on the crosswalk. He’ll point to one bullfighter and signal for the crowd to applause and then point to the other with the loudest applause advancing.

The winner of the event will be awarded an engraved sword.

It’s a fitting trophy for the event considering Gladiators were swordsmen from the Roman Empire.

“I want that sword to be something we do every year,” Murray said, “a badge of honor.”

And it’ll certainly take a fundamentally sound bullfighter to win.

It’s a tight arena in which Murray said the bullfighters and bulls alike will definitely know where each other’s at the entire 30 seconds. Murray joked The Pit is the size of his walk-in closet, whereas in a traditional arena there’s always a place to escape and get away from one another.

“I like when Evil Knievel jumps the Grand Canyon. Shit like that makes me want to watch. … (AFB) is like when Evil Knievel jumped a pool full of sharks. I don’t know shit about jumping shark tanks, but I’d be excited to watch it and I’d be able to tell you which one I thought was the best.”

Murray isn’t the only one excited for the event.

Gorham and all four of his bullfighters are excited to showcase their talent and skill.

McWilliams is looking forward to fighting in front of the PBR riders and he has family in Albuquerque, who will be there.

And, of course, the fans.

The (Beast) Pit is expected to be sold out again this year.

“It’s humbling to get the call,” McWilliams said, “you know, hearing him say, ‘I want you to come to this.’”

“At The Pit, you’re living in there together,” said Murray, who explained how much he likes combat sports. “I like when two great guys go in there and battle it out.

Outside the Arena with...

Flint Rasmussen

By Georgia Akers

Interviewer’s Comments: If you are a country music fan and someone says “Garth”. Everyone knows you are talking about Garth Brooks. If you are a pop music fan and someone says “Madonna”.

Everyone knows you are talking about, well, Madonna. If you are a bull riding fan and someone says “Flint”. He is the one and only premier rodeo entertainer, Flint Rasmusssen. He is our Garth, Elvis, and Madonna.

You started as a teacher. What did you teach and where?

I taught high school math and history, coached football and track in Havre, Montana. There were 800 kids in the school. But during this time, on weekends and summers, I was performing as a rodeo clown. I did this while in college. I started getting more and more calls and eventually gave up teaching. In the beginning I had no family so the travel was easier.

What word would describe you as a teacher?

Inexperienced. I would be a much better teacher now. I have had the opprtunity to be everywhere and see so many things. I would be a way better teacher and I think I could relate better with the kids.

How did you transition from being an educator to rodeo entertainer?

First I was never a bull fighter clown. I always wanted to be an entertainer. I played sports but also was in music and drama while in school. I come from a rodeo family and went to a lot of rodeos.

I thought I could do better. My Dad and brother were both rodeo announcers. They opened the door for me to work rodeos as a summer job. Every weekend I was performing.

How did you become Flint the premier rodeo entertainer?

With the performing, I gained more confident in what I had to offer. I started taking other people’s ideas and tried to make it mine. But you really have to do your own thing. You cannot borrow. Dance is one of my talents. As I got better, I was asked to perform at bigger rodeos and started winning awards. I did PBR and rodeos together for many years.

You have been instrumental in changing the role of the rodeo clown?

How did this happen?

I think I changed the expectations.

Working rodeos is different from PBR. With rodeo you are expected to have props, baggy pants and be prepared to do a 10 minute skit. Either one uses the music and dancing but with PBR you are working around commercials and possibly extra time necessary for issues in the chute. My style fits PBR which is more contemporary rather than rodeo which has a different approach.

How do you come up with the skits, acts, conversations, dance for the arena?

I am not a good writer. I am not good at sitting in my hotel room and writing skits. I have been given the type of brain that does not freeze up and goes a million miles an hour while in the arena. The crowd energizes me. The best stuff is ad lib. I look at the world differently.

What is your favorite thing to do in the arena?

Music feels good. But the most favorite thing is when I do something in the arena and get a true, honest laugh from the fans.

I feel like I just made their day better.

Have you ever tried something and just have it flop?

Happens more than people realize. I used to watch the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. Some of his funniest moments were when he realized something did not work and he just moved on.

I move on.

Several years ago you had a life threatening heart issue. How did this experience change you?

No matter what, I will never have the stamina I had. I cannot go like I used to. I worked my butt off to stay in shape, eat healthy and I had a heart attack. It made me mad. Part of me was thinking I don’t know how long I will live. I became closer to my family. I

Humps-Horns.com · 28 · February 2018

hope I became a better friend because I found out how much my friends cared.

You used to mention your daughters while performing.

What are they doing now?

My oldest, Shelby, is a freshman on a rodeo scholarship at Montana State. Just got her grades. They were awesome.

Paige is a junior in high school. She rodeos and runs track. They are both very musical. I am blessed to have great kids.

What did they think as children of what you did for a living?

They never knew anything different. We had a motor home and we traveled together as a family. It gave them incredible travel opportunities to see the world and meet so many people. They have always been very proud of what I do.

Have you ever thought of opening a school? What would you tell Flint wannabees?

I thought about a school but do not have one. You have to be born with a sense of humor. You either have it or you do not. If you don’t, you won’t be able to do this job. I might be able to teach how you approach the performance but that would be all.

You have to be willing to start at the bottom and work your butt off. You walk into an arena and there are 37 people in the stands. You have to be just as excited for those 37 as you would for thousands.

You have to be excited to go to work. In the beginning, I saw crowds of 37 spectators. You have to be patient. This does not happen overnight. When I started, I never knew that I would be able to make a living just doing this.

How do the young PBR riders coming on tour compare with the young riders 10-15 years ago?

They seem so young but then I am older. I can remember hanging out after a show with Justin McBride, Ross Coleman and Luke Snyder until 4 am playing the guitar. There wasn’t as much social media and the riders were not as recognizable to fans. The riding is at a higher level. The bulls are better. I know because I was there. The riders today realize the reality of what they can earn.

They take better care of themselves. They are better prepared to deal with the limelight. They grew up watching other guys doing interviews. They have agents to guide them. For the guys 15 years ago, they did not have this.

When you aren’t in your make up, do the fans recognize you?

Because I do speaking performances without make up, they do recognize me. Some approach me. Some just give me a wave.

Some want to talk to me. I never want to be rude but….

One time I was having breakfast with my parents and this couple with a three year old came up to the table making a fuss that the kid was seeing Flint and how exciting it was for the kid. I had no make up. I was not the clown. The kid could not have cared less.

It was the parents who were excited (laughing).

I have noticed that when your are not Flint the entertainer but just Flint you are pretty quiet, almost reclusive. What is your real personality? Who is the real Flint?

I am still pretty extroverted. I listen a lot. In the arena, I never relax my mind. I am taking everything in constantly. When the show ends, I can go back and be myself. I like to sit, listen to friends and talk about cars, kids, what is going on in our lives. Usually, I am tired. My wife was asked once what is it like to live with a live wire like Flint. She said boring. I never was a wild man, never was a troublemaker, never was in trouble and was always respectful.

You have to be disciplined. I think this is true of anyone who is good at what they do.

Humps-Horns.com · 29 · February 2018

What do you like to do when you aren’t on tour?

I am still trying to figure that out. Montana has great fising and hunting. Would like to do more. I like to be with my girls and go to their rodeos. It is nice to not be in the arena and just support them in their sport.

You have won many awards and are listed for those awards in the Rodeo Hall of Fame. Do you think you might be a candidate to be inducted?

I have performed at the NFR and many, many rodeos. I have a talk show and a radio show. Someday.

Most people do not realize how active you are doing a show: dancing going up and down the steps into the crowds. How do you stay in shape?

I never stop moving in the arena. If I stand still my mind stands still. I run and do light weights.

How long do you see you doing this?

If someone told me at fifty I would still be doing this I would not have believed them. When it is time, I would like to be part of the production team and be involved behind the scenes.

What advice would you give someone wanting to be a rodeo entertainer?

I have done all the big rodeos. The secret is you work, work and work. Be really good at your job. Treat people with respect.

How do the riders treat you?

The young riders are respectflul. I am like an uncle. They have seen me as they have grown up. Justin, Ross, Gaffney are good frlends.

What about Jess Lockwood?

He is a friend with my daughter. I know his parents. Good family.

How would you feel if your daughters dated a bull rider like a Jess or Derek Kolbaba?

Laughing absolutely. They are wealthy young men and nice also! My daughter isn’t much into bull riders. She dates a steer wrestler.

Who do you feel closest to when on tour?

The bull fighters are like brothers. We share a locker room.

Also the announcers and music producer.

Do you meet with the announcers and music producer and plan your performance?

Not really. Certain spots lend itself to a dance medley. We do not talk about what to do. They have so much more they are having to do. Mark, the music producer might float a new song or I might hear one on the radio. We work together so much it is rarely scripted.

New Year’s Eve is not traditionally a big time of year for bull riding and, even more so, in the northwest where the frigid temperatures and snow tend to bring the western sports world to a perpetual stop.

greatest bucking bull ever. Julio Morena brought Bushwhacker north to Klamath Falls to make a rare appearance in which fans and bull riding enthusiasts got the opportunity to meet this great bovine athlete.

However, every New Year’s Eve for the last 26 years the city of Klamath Falls, Oregon has hosted what is quickly becoming one of the biggest open bull rides in the United States. It may be hard to conceptualize that this little northwest logging and ranching community could host such a big event, but it stands true.

After a couple hours of enjoying the rare semi-warm day of Oregon weather, Bushwhacker moved to the John Hancock Event Center where under the glitz and glamour of pyrotechnics and spotlights Bushwhacker made a couple passes around the arena before retreating into the back pens.

Twenty-six years ago, Mr. Jamie Berg had a dream of hosting a New Years Eve event that would over shadow all others, and this year Bull Mania topped itself. Starting with an early afternoon appearance in a local parking lot of what many argue was the

After a spectacular grand entry, it was time for the real action to kick off. Over the next three hours, Oregonians were treated to some of the top names in bull riding competing against some of the best bucking bulls in the business. Matched with this highoctane bull riding was sections of some of the toughest Ranch Bronc riders in the Northwest.

Even with the high energy action, the highlight was the long list of prominent bull riders who made the trip into the event center. Names like multi-time PBR World Finals Qualifier Jory Markiss, NFR qualifier Jordan Spears, and up and coming west coast bull rider Chase Dougherty. In terms of bull riding competition, the list of names was a who’s who of west coast bull riders.

The conditions were prime as the long round quickly set the tone with the bull riders not only covering but putting up impressive numbers. Jordan Spears was the first to lay down the gauntlet with a 86 point ride on Gatlin Gun which left him on the top of the leader board after section 1. Section 2 did not see much mix up in the leader board, Chase Dougherty put up a respectable 85 point ride on Lights Out and Jory Markiss squeezed out a 75 point ride on Momma Boy which was just enough to put him in the Short Round.

Fan favorite bull rider Jory Markiss takes first place at the Klamath Falls BullMania New Year’s Eve Bash.

The championship round came down to the top 8 riders of the event, and brought in the true heavier hitters of the bovine athletes.

Bulls such as Carolina Reaper and Indian Medicine both who have made appearances in the top levels of the PBR. In true dramatic fashion, the championship round turned into a dogfight. Both Jordan Spears and Chase Dougherty put up impressive 89-point rides putting them in great position to finish 1 and 2 in the event.

This still left Jory Markiss a small window of opportunity to walk away with the big check and some new hardware from Bull Mania 2017.

Much like Jory had done hundreds of times before he slide down in the chutes took a wrap and with calm confidence called for his bull. The ride started with a few long jumps then a quick turn back into his hand which put Jory right where he needed to be.

The remainder of the rounds were big moves and strong position as Jory easily handled his 8 seconds and capped it off with a hat

tipping exit. Jory’s 90.5 marked ride took him to the top of the score board and secured him a new buckle for the trophy case as well as a hefty check to take home.

In the end, Bull Mania 2017 proved to be just as exciting as it has been the previous 26 years, and yet before the curtain had fallen on 2017 the big plans for Bull Mania 2018 had already began. With an even bigger event and larger payout there are no doubts that the little town of Klamath Falls will continue to see one of the biggest open bull rides in the nation!

(Continued from p. 12)

For this, you will need an elastic stretch band that has comfortable resistance.

How to do the ankle flex exercise: 1. Sit on the floor with your legs straight in front of you.

2. Anchor the stretch band to a table or chair in front of you, and then wrap it around your foot so that the cord stretches when you pull your foot towards your body.

3. Pull your toes toward you and slowly return to the start position.

4. Do this 10 times for each foot.

How to do the plantar flex exercise: 1. With your legs straight in front of you, sit on the floor.

2. Hold both ends of the stretch band and wrap it around your foot, just below the toes.

3. Gently stretch your toes forward, and then return to the start position.

4. Do this 10 times for each foot.

Benefits to the feet This exercise is good to prevent injury to the feet. It also helps to strengthen all muscles in the feet and calf areas, thus, helping to maintain mobility. It can help with faster recovery from a calf or foot injury.

9. Step Stretch (3 times per week) The purpose of the step stretch exercise is to strengthen the muscles in the sole of the feet. This will help keep you more balanced when walking.

For this, you will need a place where there is a step.

How to do the exercise: 1. Stand on the step with your body facing the step.

Allow your heels to hang off the edge.

2. Gently lower your heels down. Hold for 10 – 15 seconds 3. Then return your heels to the starting position.

4. Repeat 5 to 10 times.

The purpose of the heel cord stretch is to stretch the calf muscle and the muscles that are connected to the ankle. These are important muscles to maintain mobility.

There is no special equipment needed.

How to do the exercise: 1. Stand to face a wall with one leg forward and slightly bent at the knee.

2. The other leg should be straight behind you. Both heels should be flat on the ground.

3. Keeping both heels on the ground, gently press your hips towards the wall.

4. Hold for 30 seconds. Relax for 30 seconds and then repeat.

Remember to keep your back straight when doing this exercise.

Benefits to the feet This strengthens the ankle and prevents injury. It can also relieve foot and ankle pain and help restore mobility if you have suffered calf muscle damage.

If it is too much to do both feet at the same time, then just do it with one foot. Remember to always have something to hold onto to keep your balance.

Benefits to the feet This is a good exercise to strengthen the sole of the feet, ankles, and calf muscles. It also increases mobility in the feet and is useful to prevent injuries.

10. Heel Cord Stretch (This can be carried out daily.)
