PBR 1996: Tuff Hedeman Profile

TNN highlights the 1995 PBR World Champion Tuff Hedeman about his comeback from two severe injuries, his wreck on Bodacious, and how much time he has left riding.

[@raulperales4207]

When I was 9 years old I got his signature on my cowboy hat when he was in Del Rio Texas

[@rickenterkin4720]

Tuffs a legend. Everything he's helped with in growing the sport. From ole NFR days to PBR & to his smaller league. Miss you ole Son. Stay safe & GOD BLESS 🙏

[@kceequesada]

Tuff is the name world renowned plan and simple. This is a MAN

[@ljgaines8170]

I met him at a gas station in Saginaw Texas he was filling up his SUV to go to Meacham field to catch a flight the his bull riding challenge he was a super nice guy and I always remember that I wish nothing but the best for him and his family. And God bless them

Wish we seen Lane ride Bodacious!!

[@jerryw4471]

Tuff and Lane Frost were good buddies. They were 2 of the best. I like Mike White a lot because he was a world champion and lives out in West Texas.

You appreciate NOTHING, TEMPTING death, and it is surely good that God winks at ignorance but for how long!

[@Lowkeyshxrp1]

We all know he got famous from lane frost

[@rickenterkin4720]

Nah. He got FAMOUS for his ability to make them rides & win the 3 championship PRCA titles & his PBR title. Not to mention his rides on the legendary BODACIOUS....1 of which he BESTED that BEAST. He was just widely known for being Lane's best friend, but that didn't make him famous. His hard work GRIT & NEVER SURRENDER attitude to be the best in the world at what he does made him FAMOUS. Lane was just a plus & someone he admired & loved.

[@garypollard9770]

Having known someone doesn’t make you famous! Tuff Hedeman was famous because he was Tuff Hedeman! He was one of the best, if not the best! bull rider of all time! That is why he is famous! Having known Lane Frost made him a better person! His words not mine! Then after being pretty much the brains behind getting the PBR started they screwed him over!

[@Lowkeyshxrp1]

@@garypollard9770 I mean in the movie 🤦🏻‍♂️

[@bricedixon113]

You realize he was a champion bull rider before lane right?

[@thenormalyears]

he was a 4x world champion. lane frost got famous from dying

[@williamsorenson3080]

He is not a pbr champ it was not made when he rode

[@lacymarie78]

He won because he was far ahead of everyone else in the earnings, so he did win in 1995 even though he wrecked on Bodacious
