Here are two men that are one of the most important part of a rodeo. The pickup men.
Bobby and Brady
They have saved many a cowboy and cowgirl since I have got to know them.
They never think twice about what they are doing or about the dangers involved.
I have seen Bobby get kick in the leg and never flinch, when the night was over and he got off his horse he could barley walk. He never said a word.
Bobby and Brady works all the OJRA Rodeos and they go above and beyond to make sure them little ones don't get hurt. I am sure glad they are there when my Granddaughter rides. I know they will do their best to make sure she gets off safe.
Brady is not only a pickup man but also a bull fighter and rides in the ranch bronc. I seen him just last weekend take a hookin for one of the cowboys,his spur got hung up in the bull rope and Brady was right there and took a heck of a shot in the eye, cut it opened and I am sure it was black and blue the next day, but the cowboy came out without a scratch.Brady acted like it was know big deal. Bobby was also in there helping, I think he had the bull by the horns. They sure have alot of guts. Not many people would do the job they do.
Here is Bobby doing his job, see what I mean!!
