Rodeo Events

Charro Mexican saddles are traditionally designed for a variety of equestrian activities, including ranch work and pleasure riding, but they are not specifically optimized for team roping. While they can be used for team roping, their design may lack certain features found in specialized roping saddles, such as a horn for dallying and a more secure seat for quick movements. Therefore, while it's possible to use a Charro saddle for team roping, it may not provide the best performance or comfort compared to saddles specifically designed for that purpose.

"Brustin' broncs" refers to the rodeo event of bronc riding, where cowboys attempt to ride untrained horses (broncs) for a specified amount of time. The goal is to stay on the horse while it tries to buck the rider off, showcasing both the rider's skill and the horse's strength. This term captures the excitement and challenge of this traditional rodeo sport.

Rodeos gained popularity in the 1960s as they showcased traditional cowboy skills and celebrated Western heritage, appealing to a growing interest in Americana during that era. The rise of television also helped popularize rodeo events, bringing them into homes across the country and attracting a wider audience. Additionally, rodeos provided thrilling entertainment and a sense of community, making them a favored pastime for many Americans.

Yes, Johnny Rushing was a world champion in the sport of team roping. He achieved significant recognition in the rodeo circuit and was known for his exceptional skills as a roper. His contributions to the sport and his championship titles have left a lasting legacy in rodeo history.

Annual rodeo attendance in America varies but is estimated to be around 30 million spectators. Major events, like the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, draw hundreds of thousands of attendees each year. The popularity of rodeo spans across various regions, particularly in the West and Southern states, contributing to its substantial overall attendance.

Yes, there are coed team roping teams, where both male and female ropers compete together. This format allows for a diverse range of skills and strengths, contributing to the dynamics of the team. Many rodeos and roping events encourage mixed-gender participation, promoting inclusivity in the sport. Coed teams can be a fun and competitive way to engage in team roping.

I just did this job on my '95 Achieva about a week ago (“rear” is toward read of car; “front” is toward front of car): 1. Remove the negative cable from your battery (I usually remove the positive one, too) 2. You will need a long thin breaker bar with a 3/8-inch socket head. This is used to move the spring loaded serpentine belt tensioner. I had to make one but the better supplied auto stores have them. The square socket head goes into a square hole in the tensioner. Once you have the square head firmly seated in the tensioner, move your breaker bar toward the rear of the car. This will create enough slack to get the belt off the alternator pulley. Slide the belt out of the way and slowly allow the breaker bar to swing back toward the front of the car. (whew!) DON’T remove the breaker bar from the tensioner. 3. Remove the small plastic cap that covers the small screw post on the back side (away from the pulley) of the alternator. This will expose a 10 mm? nut that holds a small wire with an eyelet to the post. There are also a couple of lock washers. Don't lose these. (If you look at your new alternator, you will see the post is marked "BATT" or "BAT"). 4. Remove the bolt (15 mm head?) from the front alternator mount....this is the easy one! It threads into a “formed” shaft which is attached to a stud coming out of the engine case. Remove the nut on this stud and fully remove the formed steel shaft. 5. Take a deep breath….and maybe a drink of your favorite beverage. 6. The rear mount is the bear. A long bolt passes through the alternator mount, then though the alternator, then through a weird little bracket to which a bunch of wiring harnesses and a metal tube are all connected. There is a 13? mm nut on the back of this collection, and it is hard to reach because of the plastic bracket. I got to this nut via a long set of socket extensions and a u-joint extension; long enough to bypass the obstructions in the way. 7. There is also a formed (bent) metal bracket that this above assembly attaches to and is fastened at the back of the alternator. Remove the nut that attaches it to the alternator. Don’t drop any of these little fasteners! I usually stuff a rag beneath where I’m working to catch these little critters in case I drop one! (Whew!) 8. OK, the alternator should now be loose enough to carefully rotate it out of the mounting area and thus allow you to remove the electrical connections. 9. Lift it out of the way. Note that there are a couple of other unrelated electrical connections that may be in your way as you try and remove the fasteners from the back of the alternator. Disconnect them to give yourself some extra room….just remember to re-connect them! 10. Like they say in the books: “Installation is the reverse of removal” and essentially that’s true. Just take your time and work carefully. Remember the small wire to the alternator post labeled “BATT”. The nut the end of the rear mount bolt is a real pain to get started since it’s one of those self-locking nuts and is tight when started. 11. Once the alternator is installed, the breaker bar can be moved toward the rear of the car to allow enough belt slack to slip it over the alternator pulley. Now slowly release the breaker bar to allow the tensioner to create…..well, tension! Remove breaker bar. 12. Reconnect the battery. After I had the whole job done, I fired up the car and the alternator gauge still read low…..Guess who forgot to reconnect the main wiring harness plug to the alternator socket!?! Ok…one more time….. All said and done, the entire job (even with the re-connection just mentioned!) took about an hour and a half. Good luck!!

While it is true that Americans found it hard to accept black men as pilots, the blacks proved themselves to be great fighter pilots. Co. George S. "Spanky" Roberts was the first African-American selected for the pilot training in the Air Corps. He was one of the first 5 to receive his Silver Flight Wings. He graduated from 42-C class and became the 1st Commander of the 99th Pursuit Squad. Born 1918, died 1984. TUSKAGEE FACTS: On July 19, 1941, the AAF began an unprecedented program in Alabama to train black Americans to become fighter pilots. The training took place under the Div. of Aeronautics at the Tuskagee Institute, the school created by Booker T. Washington. The first classes trained to be fighter pilots became part of the famous 99th Fighter Squadron, and were slated for combat in North Africa. Later classes were attached to the 322 Fighter Group, which flew combat missions with the 99th from bases in Italy. They were called "Schwartze Vogelmenschen" (Black Bird Men) by the Germans. American Bomber crews referred to them as "Red Tall Angels" because of their reputation of never losing a plane they escorted into combat. The bomber pilots began to appreciate the Redtails. In "Mustang Aces of the 9th and 15th Air Forces," one B-24 pilot recalled: "The P-38's always stayed too far out. Some of the Mustang group stayed in too close .. other groups, we got the feeling that they just wanted to go and shoot down 109s .. the Red Tails were always out there where we wanted them to be .. we had no idea they were black; it was the Army's best kept secret." By the end of WW2, 992 men graduated from the training program. Of those, 450 served in combat overseas, but 150 lost their lives during training or combat fights. Over 15,000 combat sorties (including 6000+ for the 99th prior to July '44) 111 German airplanes destroyed in the air, another 150 on the ground. 950 railcars, trucks, and other motor vehicles destroyed 1 destroyer sunk by P-47 machine gun fire (Lt. Pierson's flight) 66 pilots killed in action or accidents 32 pilots downed and captured, POWs. NO BOMBER LOST WHILE BEING ESCORTED BY THE 332ND, A UNIQUE ACHIEVEMENT 150 Distinguished Flying Crosses earned 744 Air Medals 8 Purple Hearts 14 Bronze Stars *NOTE BY MARCY ... So, in war, or in every day life does it matter the color of one's skin? When someone is saving your butt and keeping you safe we are all brothers and sisters.

I just did mine about 3 days ago. The serpintean belt must be tooken off first, under the car remove the guard, the black piece of plastic in the front right. once thats done, there is a pulley that the serpentian belt is attached to. Look at diagram below>

Serpentian belt diagram:
--- and | | | is belt. ALT is altinator. Adj is tension pulley that you must pry toward altinator to create slack. (note: in order to do this you must jack up car, and go under.)

Once you pry the Adj and create slack take the belt off. Next you must unscrew all screws on altinator including the wires attached to it. There is a wire attached on the back were it kinda clips off, and one that is screwed in it for the curren on the sidet.. Daewoo's shittie design makes it so you have to actually climb under the car on jack, and take off the altinator mounting bracket screws under the altinator. Once this is done remove the altinator my taking it under the car, it should drop off when you remove the mounting screws. It should kinda slide out, but you have to work it around the exhaust. Take the altinator out, then replace it with a new one. Put the mounting screws on first while holing it with one hand. then put everything back together. Put the serpentian belt on the same way you took it off. NOTE: its quite a bit harder to put the belt back on. I used a wrenche to pry it loose then slid the belt on. Its is very hard to pry, especially with one hand and the belt in the other. But shouldn't be to hard if your strong. then reconnect the battery, and Bam there yah go. To test it take off one battery terminal while the car is on, if it still runs. you did it.

Bull riding started as a fun thing to do. Bull riding was a thing a cowboy didn't have to do in daily chores.There is not a most common breed in bull riding. Some of the early bull types were just bulls that had a mean streak.

Along the was the Brahma breed became popular because of the horns and the big hump on the back. As they were cross bred for beef production the cross breeds came to the rodeo also. Rodeo producers began looking for bulls that gave the riders difficulty and started experimenting with various breeds and cross breeds.

Tornado was unridden for over one hundred rides before Freckles Brown rode him at the National Finals Rodeo in Oklahoma City. Years later Bodacious came on the scene and the breeding business went into high gear.
