[QUOTE="Bestoutwest, post: 1316826, member: 19397"] The story that I heard on him is that he was a commercial beef bull that was headed for slaughter and was bought by someone to use in high school rodeos. He sucked and was about to get canned and then a kid hung up on him. After that night he was a different animal, and as they say, the rest is history. That's not necessarily true. I have seen papered up bulls that should buck their tails off actually run across the pen and then I've seen bulls that are out of a commercial cow with a PBR bull as a sire just go out and buck like a monster. The trait is inheritable in as much as you have a better chance to get a bucking bull out of pedigreed parents than if you were to buy a beef bull and expect something special. However, there's always anecdotal evidence that says otherwise, but that's like buying coal hoping to find a diamond. I'm not sure what the percentage is on born bulls and those making it to the PBR. It's a very political game that keeps a decent amount of good bulls on the local circuit. There's one guy that decides who gets to bring bulls to the top division, so you upset him forget ever getting a call, no matter how good your bull is. [/QUOTE]
