Talk:Bronc riding
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Please please please someone update this page! Horses are not prey animals. Broncs are bred for this purpose, not failed work animals. The flank strap is no where near the animal's genitals. When a horse and rider rear up like that, it's more closely compared to a "wheelie" on a motorcycle; control and freedom and excitment, not chaos or an attempt to throw the rider! Bucking broncs don't rear like that, excited horse and riders do.
Shouldn't there be something in here about what makes the horse buck? Isn't there a band around the genitals or something like that? Ortolan88
This page has the same content as Bareback bronc. Mcpusc 01:46, 20 Dec 2004 (UTC)
[edit] bronc buster
Apparently, "bronc buster" seems to be the term for someone who does this for a living (see e.g. John Muir). Could someone write a bit about this, please? — Sebastian (T) 07:31, 2005 Apr 10 (UTC)
[edit] circular reference
There currently is a circular reference from this page to bronco and back. — Sebastian (T) 07:39, 2005 Apr 10 (UTC)
[edit] broncos
The commentators at the 2005 Wrangler National Rodeo Finals seemed to imply that broncos are specifically bred and trained for this purpose, not that they are failed riding horses...?12.174.149.185 17:04, 8 December 2005 (UTC)Grazina
