Bareback Riding: Ride a bucking Horse for 8 seconds using only one hand in a rigging mounted on the horse's back while keeping your free hand from making contact with the horse. The rider is judged on how well he rides and the horse is judged on how well he bucks. 2 judges 1-25 for horse and rider. 100 points possible, but never been done. Highest score wins.
Steer Wrestling: After giving the steer an allotted head start, your horse runs past the steer, the contestant jumps off the horse onto the steer. Time stops when the steer is laid down. Fastest time wins.
Team Roping: A team of cowboys (2) give the steer an allotted head start, the header (left) will rope the steers horns, when the steer changes directions the heeler ropes the back feet. Time stops when ropes are tight and ropers are facing each other. Fastest time wins.

Tie Down Roping: Calf roping is a single contestant sport. After giving the calf an allotted head start, ride to the calf, rope it and dismount, lay the calf down and tie three legs together. When the roper raises his hands the time will stop. Fastest time wins.
Breakaway Roping: Breakaway Roping is a single contestant sport for women only. The calf gets a head start like calf roping, but after the cowgirl ropes the calf the rope "breaks away" from the saddle to stop the clock. Fastest time wins.
