As a family (minus Tyler, who was at work), we went to the Western Heritage Days & Ranch Rodeo in Gooding. This is a rodeo where men who work on a ranch participate, not the professionals. The Range Race was my favorite. This is a race where the men stand behind a line, minus their boots and sitting on their saddle. After the start, they put their boots on, pick up their saddle and run to the end of the arena, where they saddle their horse and ride the horse to the other end of the arena. The race was pretty exciting because 3 cowboys were bucked from their horses. No one was hurt.

Here is a video (just click on the link) of one of the cowboys in the Ranch Bronc Riding. Exciting!
