      Doubt she will compete at the top level but she could prove me wrong 🤷‍♂️ I mean I've never seen a woman stay on a bull for 8 seconds? Is there a video out there showing a woman doing it?

My middle girl never shot a gun in her life but was a brawler and fought constantly so she joined the marines and they taught her how to shoot and now she owns the most popular shooting school for women in the country in Georgia. Her daughter is a S P in the navy. If they can let them and very few men can much less women.

    Freaking awesome dearling. Rock it. Guys aren't the only ones who can do stuff like this. I can"t imagine riding bulls, but I drove an 8-axel rig, off highway for 10 years, in places grown men would cry. Never let anyone say you can't do what you love and I see that your dad is sooooo behind you and there are awesome ladies in the industry (more than one lady stock contractor) that are excited that you are there. Keep it up. I love any lady who thinks outside the norms and proves women are just as good (if not better) than the guys.

    I know she will & I hope I'm there to watch. What an awesome dad to have. I'm 1 of those females surrounded by males thru my whole life in surfin,skateboarding ect. Most of the time males have been supportive if you're game they are too. Every once in awhile you'll get a male that feels threatened & will try to put you in your place. I rode a bucking pony once in the Lil Britches Rodeo when I was 7,headache & mouth full of dirt I was good. That & my experience w/horses as a kid. 1 taking off & was hard to get to stop in a field I couldn't tell was level. The other racing another friend w/passenger,right as the horse went into loping the leather strap that holds the saddle on broke & I landed on my head/shoulder. I hid that from my mom,never went to a doctor. Probably broke my collar bone,I was lucky I was young & could heal up. Yeah I'll jus watch other ppl ride bulls & the rodeo clowns too. I'll probably shed a tear when I see a female competing professionally.

    She can do it at twelve because the physical difference between males and females is small. Once the boys hit puberty everything will change. Good luck to her but it’s doubtful she will compete in the top 100 as an adult. Like Venus Williams said, she probably would be ranked around 100th in the men’s tennis division and she’s the best female tennis player in history! I’m not hating just being realistic. It’s biology! Hopefully they will create a women’s division! She’s one tough cowgirl though! Respect to her!

      11 11 None of that is the PBR. I am talking very specifically about two different women riders who tried and were both harassed and threatened. Guys sabotaged one woman’s vehicle and even poisoned her dog. You can look up her accounts of it. In my teens I was literally told that girls were not allowed, period end of story. Girls could barrel ride, rope goats and look pretty. Keep your “virtue signaling” nonsense to yourself.
