People, relax. This is not cruel. Nothing unnatural is done to the horses, though they do wear flank straps. These straps do not constrict movement or cause pain. The feeling is similar to when you have a scratchy tag in a shirt; annoying, but not painful. Most stock horses used for rodeo genuinely love to buck. If a horse gets to old to buck, or loses the will to do so, they are retired. Some rodeos do mistreat animals, but official competitions are generally well regulated.

@Jefrma then let me clarify, it's meant as a tool to maximize a natural reaction. Its annoying only in its novelty to that animal not a physical pain. Those horses are bred to buck they would do it anyway without the strap; the strap is there to encourage a bigger buck in a non painful manor so the score will be better. I've seen bucking straps put on animals that just look at it and stand there not even bothered. It all depends on the quality of the animal, and how much they like to buck.

@Shasta991 there´s a big difference between a horse enjoying himself free on a field, the same time letting out few bucks and a horse bucking because it feels very uncomfortable and immediately stops when the cause of that feel is removed. And you mentioning the strap being a ment annoyance just proves my point correct. So you need that rope to annoy a horse, who you claim LIKES bucking, to actually buck? That makes no sense.

1:24 The guy seems drunk.First of all,to judge these horses you need to HAVE a horse.Most of the poeple saying poor horses are sitting at home and have NEVER even sattled a horse

@PCTrooper1993 Guess what cap some of us did ride and some of did work on ranches and some of us can see through it.We're not city slickers we grew up on Brahman Ranchs. But we hate to see contractors banging broncs heads on gates with neck ropes and a lot of other unsportsman like conduct. Never heard all this language in the arenas in 60's and 70s. No more tickets for me.

I don´t think they´re poor horses. They live the most time of they life at the field outside. Not in a stable watching 22 hours at a wall. then ride 1 hour and go again in to the stable. what a fucking life for a horse isn´t it?

Guys, stop being harsh on this video this horse and man have trained for this it would be very dangerous if they had'nt i've been riding since i was 1 1/2 am 17 now!

First of all, this is not cruel. They simpley tie a rope around the horses stomach to make it buck. If the horse didnt enjoy this job, it would probaly try to kill it self. Wouldnt horses like to buck off people?
