Attention Randy Bernard~CEO of PBR and Ty Murray~PBR President
OPEN LETTER TO RESIDENTS of OKLAHOMA Dear Professional Bull Riders, Inc. (PBR): Attention Randy Bernard~CEO of PBR and Ty Murray~PBR President I am writing to urge you to eliminate the presence of ALL tobacco sponsors and messages during your bull riding events. Professional bull riding has moved into ranks of world-class sports and the eyes of the public are now fixed on the PBR athletes, who serve as heroes and role models for youth across the United States. Simply put, children emulate the actions of adults they admire, copying their habits-both good and bad. I have been involved with the sport of bull riding for over 20 years as an announcer, broadcast and print journalist, radio personality, spectator and, most recently, as a spokesperson for Buck Tobacco Sponsorship’s National Tobacco-Free Rodeo Project. The Buck Tobacco program targets rodeos and bull riding events throughout the country with requests to eliminate tobacco sponsorship. (www.bucktobacco.org). I have visited with over 150,000 children across the country to talk with them about the sport of bull riding, along with the importance of leading a healthy lifestyle. Tobacco is not part of a healthy lifestyle and should not be part of bull riding. Numerous churches, schools and community organizations across the country are joining me in the pledge to support a tobacco-free PBR. Many of these individuals regularly attend PBR events with their children, and are disturbed by the tobacco messaging that is reaching kids at your otherwise family-friendly event. Would you encourage or allow your child to use tobacco products? Medical research chronicles the increased likelihood of heart disease and cancer as a result of the use of tobacco products.

4Th Annual Brent Thurman Memorial Bull Riding
WHO WAS BRENT THURMAN A gentleman who never knew a stranger, Brent Thurman grinned his way through life. Some have remarked that they have never known another person who liked to smile as much with their front teeth missing. Not only was Brent a world-class champion bull rider, he was a motivator of life. Thurman was born in Austin, Texas on March 3, 1969 into a family of Central Texas supporters. His Mother, Kay Thurman, said "Whatever was happening at the moment is what Brent wanted to do." Football, basketball, track and bay fishing were only a few of Thurman's athletic endeavors. His second favorite sport was golf. He won a city tournament and was determined to join the Senior PGA when he retired from bull riding. Brent's bull riding career began at the fearless age of 8 at Cecil Hill's arena in Austin. Several bull riders commended Thurman's unique style of riding. He carried his free arm lower than most riders and used his feet more than his upper body. In 1993, Thurman qualified for his first NFR. He finished fifth in the final standings that year and 13th in the 1994 Crown Royal World Standings. He was also a three-time competitor in the Texas Circuit Finals Rodeo. After Thurman's first professional career year ended in 1989, he went on to be ranked in the top 30 bull riders in the world. Brent was a founding member of the PBR in 1993 and was looking forward to the changes it would bring.

78 February/March 2010 AmericanCowboy.com Harry Vold Taking Stock The land of opportunity lured Canadian auctioneer and rodeo stock contractor Harry Vold to make a name for himself south of the border 40 years ago. Today, Vold is a recent inductee into the National Cowboy Rodeo Hall of Fame and a recipient of a ProRodeo Legend Award. America has been good to the man known as the Duke of the Chutes. By Tracey Feist Photography by Carmel Zucker AmericanCowboy.com February/March 2010 79 he walls in Harry Vold’s trophy room are filled with photos of the world’s best cowboys who’ve ridden his bucking horses to eight seconds: Jim Shoulders, Casey Tibbs, Larry T Mahan, and Ty Murray among them. Leather halters from world champion horses, identified by the Bar HV brand, hang prominently above those glossy 8x10s. Sterling silver trophy buckles are displayed under glass in a custom-made wagon wheel bar table. And news- paper articles, weathered by time, tell the tale of the 86-year-old rodeo legend who is Harry Vold: auctioneer, Wild West show performer, rodeo promoter, and eleven-time recipient of the Professional Rodeo Cowboys’ Association (PRCA) Stock Contractor of the Year award, the most of anyone in the history of North American rodeo. His daughter Kirsten sums up the black. It’s acts of solidarity like these that as a stock contractor.

When professional bull rider Colby Yates decided to hang up his bull rope and chaps in August 2012 it was not a decision that was propelled by a significant injury or a particular event, the 32-year old Texas cowboy just realized that there was life beyond the arena. It was a decision that many questioned but ultimately many respected. Colby Yates was born and raised in a family of cattle ranchers and started his rodeo career at age 8. By age 18 he obtained his pro card and began competing in the PRCA circuit before joining the Professional Bull Riders Built Ford Tough Series permanently in 2006. In his 6 years on the PBR BFTS tour Yates won 3 events and his earnings topped out over half a million dollars. By 2011 he was juggling sponsorship requirements, competing in the BFTS series, and an emerging music career. Also in 2011, Yates won the Iron Cowboy competition at Cowboy Stadium and released his debut studio album “Right Amount of Renegade”. But there was a life beyond the arena, Colby’s wife Katie, his son Cutter, and his ranch outside of Sulphur Springs, Texas were also depending on him to not only provide for them, but to physically be able to be there for them; Yates has had more concussions that any other cowboy with a whopping 38 in his 14-year career. And so in August 2012 Colby Yates made the courageous decision to walk away from the sport he loved and turn his attention to his true priorities, his family, “I was burnt out, my head and my heart were at home and I just had to be there, it was a tough reality to bite down on though.

Texas Sports Hall of Fame
Texas Sports Hall of Fame The Texas Sports Hall of Fame was organized in 1951 by the Texas Sports Writers Association. Each year the honorees are inducted into the Hall of Fame at a gala dinner. (The second such fete in 1952 was headlined by, “That filmland athlete, Ronald Reagan, and his actress wife, Nancy Davis,” The Dallas Morning News, June 9, 1952.) The hall was originally in Grand Prairie in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. The Hall of Fame was closed in 1986 for financial reasons, but in 1991 it was reopened in Waco. In addition to memorabilia, the new location also houses archives. Under the current selection process, dues-paying members of the Texas Sports Hall of Fame can nominate any number of individuals. (Anyone can become a member.) The selection committee, chaired by Dave Campbell, founder of Texas Football Magazine, reviews all nominees and creates the “Official Voting Membership” ballot. Ballots are then mailed to the voting membership, former Texas Sports Hall of Fame inductees and the media selection committee. The results of the balloting are announced in the fall with the induction banquet following in the winter. The hall of fame website is at www.tshof.org.

There are no timeouts. No four-corners offense. No taking a knee. No towels to throw in. There is only one cowboy, one bull and 8 desperate seconds. In 1992, 20 cowboys broke from the rodeo and invested $1,000 each to pursue a dream of a standalone league dedicated to bull riding. In the 28 years since, the PBR has grown into a global phenomenon that has awarded more than $191 million in prize money. 20 FOUNDING MEMBERS OF THE PROFESSIONAL BULL RIDERS David Bailey Jr. Cody Custer Michael Gaffney Ty Murray Clint Branger Jerome Davis Tuff Hedeman Ted Nuce Mark Cain Bobby Delvecchio Cody Lambert Aaron Semas Adam Carrillo Mike Erikson Scott Mendes Jim Sharp Gilbert Carrillo David Fournier Daryl Mills Brent Thurman BULL RIDING BASICS THE PBR STORY Headquartered in Pueblo, Colo., PBR was created In May 2015, PBR was acquired by Endeavor, a in 1992 by a group of 20 visionary bull riders who global leader in sports, entertainment and fashion.

Tuff Hedeman
TUFF HEDEMAN TUFF HEDEMAN Before he even started school, Richard Neale “Tuff” Hedeman earned (literally) the nickname that would stick with him for life. According to Tuff, Tater Decker, a horse trainer and friend of the Hedeman family, began to call him “Tough Nut” after he slammed the boy‟s hand in the door of his pick-up. As the story goes, young Tuff never shed the first tear. “I was about 4 or 5 years old,” remembers Hedeman, “when he slammed my hand in the door. He nicknamed me „Tough Nut‟ and it was later shortened to Tuff.” So began the life of a legend. Hedeman grew up on the racetracks of west Texas, but quickly realized his true calling; the rodeo. As a boy, he won many junior rodeos and, in 1980, took the New Mexico High School Rodeo Bull Riding and All Around titles. His success continued the following year, when he was awarded the Team Roping and All Around titles. Upon graduation, Tuff attended Sul Ross State University, where he was a member of the rodeo team, competing in bronc riding, team roping, steer wrestling and, of course, bull riding. In 1983, Tuff turned pro and filled out his PRCA permit as a bronc rider. He developed a reputation for riding bulls that had never been ridden, with an all-or-nothing style that amazed rodeo fans. He often traveled with his fellow bull riders (and close friends) Lane Frost, Cody Lambert, Jim Sharp, Clint Branger and Ty Murray, to save on travel expenses. Over his career, he would qualify for 11 NFRs, winning two NFR titles.
