It may not be your first rodeo but it's probably be the most authentic one you'll see in awhile. Teams of cowboy crews from neighboring ranches compete with one another in events such as Team Doctoring, Team Branding, Ranch Bronc Riding, Team Sorting, Wild Cow Milking, and Ranch Relay Racing. It's always a good time and it's shaping up to be a fine day.
There's a Calcutta scheduled for 7 p.m. tonight at the Bison Bar and the arena action begins at the Eastern MT. Fairgrounds tomorrow at 1 p.m. A street dance follows all events on Saturday night.
Yesterday's ranch rodeo was a good one! Paul Pauley did a great job announcing, the event was well-organized, great prizes, great teams...it was a nice event!
Good work and a hand goes out to the committee behind this: Cole Cook, Bill & Roxanne Harding, Russ Burrows, Ryle Harms, Todd LaRowe and everyone else.
All other ranch bronc rides now posted to YouTube. Other events to follow. Good show on Saturday! Thanks to all who put it together and the teams who participated.
