Description
Bunking Bronco games are exciting. Cowboys ride bareback on the horse and use a leather rigging, which looks like a heavy piece of leather with a suitcase handle. The cowboys ride one-handed and cannot touch themselves or the horse with their free hand. As with saddle bronc riding, the mark-out rule is in effect. This means the bronc riders must have the rowels of both spurs in front of and touching, the break of the bronc's shoulders on its first move out of the chute. The rider's feet must still be in this position when the bronc's front feet hit the ground for the first time.
The Cowboys spur the horse from shoulder to rigging in a frantic style, trying to complete a qualifying ride of eight seconds. Once the ride is completed, pickup men swoop in to "pick up" the rider and set him safely on the ground. Truly, this is not a sport for the faint hearted!
