I asked about bull riders getting a by week. Thanx for your answer. U also said- ...the field of riders is set after the World Finals- Does the cut take place throughout the season, and allow Touring Pro Division riders to keep moving into PBR? Thnx

Asked by Mary J over 13 years ago

This season, they enacted a new system. The Top-35 after the World Finals were kept on tour for 5 events. The BFTS Standings are actually points from the BFTS, the TPD, and International Events, with points being rated differently from each event, ie. more points for winning a BFTS than a TPD, but all the points are one set of qualification standings. After the 5th event, the "cut" in essence happens the Tuesday before each BFTS Event. The top 35 in the BFTS Standings (all of PBR Event Points) are drawn for that weekend's event. It's a new system that is to allow guys to move up faster, as opposed to being on a streak in the TBD and having to wait 5 events to move up.

how and when do you find out what bull you drew?

Asked by pat over 12 years ago

depends on the event. PBR/PRCA are a few days in advance, while amateur rodeos are usually about 3 hours before the performance.

are boots really necessary to ride ? do they help to keep a good balance, do they add to the comfort of the rider or are they just there for the look ?

Asked by bullrider53 over 13 years ago

Boots for sure are necessary... They are solid and have a heel them to fasten our spurs to. Spurs are paramount as they really are 50-75% of what we are holding on with at most times... But every time a bull moves, our spurs pop out, and we have to re-position.

Plus, walking around animals... You're going to want to wear boots ;)

Is women’s viewership increasing?

Asked by Mark Herry almost 13 years ago

I would say yes, just like NASCAR.

Thank you Mark for your great questions. I can only answer so far, but I would recommend you contact the PBR Media Relations Department and the Justin Sports Medicine Team for more detailed information if necessary.
