How many points do you need to ride a bull?
The total score possible for a bull ride is 100 points. Half of that total is based on the performance of the bull and how difficult he is to ride. Judges look for bulls with speed, power, drop in the front end, kick in the back end, directions changed and body rolls. A body roll occurs when a bull is in the air and kicks either his hind feet or all four feet to the side. The more of these characteristics a bull displays during a ride, the higher the mark is for the bull. Judges are allowed to award a cowboy a re-ride if they feel the bull did not perform at the level of other bulls in the competition and therefore did not give the rider a fair chance to earn a high score. Only the sport’s best bucking bulls are used at the Professional Bull Riders Built Ford Tough series events. PBR Livestock Director Cody Lambert works with more than 20 stock contractors – the people who own and lease bulls to the PBR – to ensure that the pool of bulls used at each event are the highest caliber possible. Most Built Ford Tough Series events feature an estimated 75 bulls that are supplied by as many as 6 different PBR stock contractors.The other half of the ride is determined by the rider’s ability to match the moves of the bull beneath him. Judges look for constant control and good body position throughout the ride. Spurring the bull is not required but extra points are awarded for doing so. The rider must stay aboard the bull for 8 seconds. The clock begins when the bull’s shoulder or hip crosses the plane of the bucking chutes and stops when the bull rider’s hand comes out of the rope or he touches the ground. The bull rider must ride with one hand and is disqualified if he touches the bull during the 8 second ride.
