  • Have the right gears for the horse, which includes a saddle without a horn and have free stirrups. You will also need hack reins, which should be braided. Fix the reins to the halter around the horse’s mouth.

 

  • Learnt he rules of riding a Bronco and the Scoring System to it for rodeos. Visit the website for the Wisconsin Rodeo Cowboys Association, and read all the rules.

 

  • Now saddle the bronco as it is in the chute, and cinch it on tightly so that the saddle does not slip off as you ride it.

 

  • Rub dry rosin on your hands to help you grip the reins when your ride the bronco.

 

  • Hold onto the bronco and sit on it. Begin riding and keep your balance. If you feel like you can not balance any longer, signal the pick-up man.
