Taylor and his family are who I turn to when I need a specific image for a commissioned piece. He is a great sport, and always ready to help me out. Don't tell his buddies he's a model!!! Thank you, Taylor!!

Did you know that one of the 7 standard events in rodeo is steer wrestling? Steer wrestling, also known as bulldogging is the quickest of the rodeo events. It requires strength, speed, and timing. Many of the competitors are large, hefty cowboys which is why this event is sometimes called the big man's event.
Steer wrestling is a timed event, and cowboys compete against each other and the clock. Bulldoggers start out in the box just like the tie-down and team ropers. The barrier is placed across the box and the steer is loaded into the roping chute. As soon as the cowboy nods his head the steer is released and he charges after it on his horse.
The steer wrestler catches up to the steer as quickly as possible and then leans over, jumps off of his horse and grabs the steer by its head. The bulldogger then plants his feet and tosses the steer onto its side, thereby stopping the clock.
