Bozeman Ranch Rodeo Roundup
Ranch Rodeo is a team sport different from independent events at a pro rodeo. Teams are scored in seven events: Team Branding, Team Doctoring, Team Sorting, Trailer Loading, Ranch Bronc Riding, the Hide Race, and Wild Cow Milking. These events are made up of tasks that real Cowboys complete in their everyday lives on a Ranch! Up to eight teams compete to be named The Best! There’s a 100% jackpot based on the number of teams, with $5,000 of added money!
