The Greatest Bull Rider to Ever Live and The Woman Who Just Changed Rodeo Forever

[@perryseltz8010]

Donnie Gay! Best guest ever...

[@bitsandspurz048]

Finally! This is a long time coming! We've not had access to rodeos, etc. to watch in forever! Thank you!

[@bfrankjack8186]

Great stories and insight Donnie! ⭐🤠

[@chrisofeasttennessee780]

Please expand The Cowboy Channel to KZbin TV. Excited about the future of The Cowboy Channel and Teton Ridge.

[@dorleyharris7195]

There is soooo much to say about this podcast…. Best thing tj say is don’t miss it !! It is outstanding

[@staybroncy]

If Teton Ridge is gonna really gonna get everyone on board they will need to get to some smaller rodeos to win the hearts and minds. While Pendleton and Cheyenne are couple of the best rodeos in the U.S. They need to hit some if the smaller ones in and out of the PRCA umbrella. Theres the IPRA, INFR, amd a couple in the East Coast. In Europe there is the European Rodeo Cowboy Association, they got buckin horses. I will remain optimistic about Teton Ridge. Cause more coverage means more interest in this piece of Americana. Best of luck! Do it right and you will have the majority of folks happy that you are here. #staybroncy

This was another great one, pumped for Rodeo Road Trip. LETS FREAKIN RODEO!

[@Sadams707]

Great video and new subscriber!

[@jeffro7p202]

Well that explains why we didnt get to see the music performance and grand entry on tv this year. Just like most things when someone new takes over they screw it all up!

[@MrJbhorses]

Don gay crazy as hell

[@bettybilly2496]

Why is the prize money, for the Breakaway event at the WNFR, so low?

[@jacktolmachoff7547]

best one yet

[@rickeeeddleman5614]

KEEP the "Arena Feed"!! Please!!! There are those of us Olde Timers who don't care about Color-Commentaries! We want R-O-D-E-O! It's really annoying to have somebody talking about evvvvery move of the bareback riders.

[@dorleyharris7195]

The CEO stated they for sure would keep both!!! Thank you for expressing your preferences!!!

[@rickeeeddleman5614]

@@dorleyharris7195 WoooooooHooooo! Thank You! This tells me "somebody" actually reads the comments - Again!!! Thanks!!!!

[@jillaskin819]

I agree. I hate all the commentaries. We never got to see the states come in. Pissed me off 6:42

[@TheonetheycallQuaid]

From one “Olde Timer” to another (I feel the right to claim this as I’ve been watching the NFR since its days in OKC, where the chutes were painted red and had the Winston (cigarette) logo on them. Even shook Donny Gays hand at my local rodeo back in 1983 shortly after Charles Sampson won the Bull Riding title (shook his hand too). The color commentary is not as bad some of the comments I’ve read. Butch Knowles & Jeff Medders certainly know the sport. I think it’s cool that they had Tim O’Connell in the booth to break down the bareback riding, along with Luke & Joe for the bulldogging and timed events. Let’s not forget Don Gay in the bull riding. I would certainly not like to see any type of social media person or influencer in the tv booth. I may catch heat for this but I do not want the NFR broadcast turning into a podcast. The arena feed is not bad, but not great either in my opinion. I know you miss the grand entry, but the absolute best way to experience the Grand Entry: See it in person. TV does not do Thomas & Mack justice, as it’s an incredibly small venue where the action just explodes in front of you. With the exception of 2020… I’ve been to the last 6 NFRS in Vegas and I’m so happy that it’s been extended through 2035. All the same I’m glad you’ll have a choice for watching the broadcast.

[@conniebroncho1716]

Pro fantasy rodeo is great but only so many states can play it. It is not legal in 23 states😞

[@montywebster6400]

Vizio tv doesn’t have CC app

[@janesexton7942]

The AMERICAN PERFORMANCE HORSEMAN IS WONDERFUL! THAT WILL STIMULATE RODEO INTERESTING FROM A LARGE AUDIENCE THAT IS LOOKING FOR BETTER CLASS ATHLETES. IMO…… THAT Show was MESMERIZING and introduced first class horses and athletes.

[@DeirdreCowboyChannel]

Glad you enjoyed the American Performance Horseman. Thank you for supporting us!

[@dorleyharris7195]

Well put

Teton ridge. Typical big corporate BS. Can’t see that most Cowboy channel fans are old school. We enjoy it for the simplicity. The change will bring more dollars more fans, and Old School Rodeo Athletes and Authentic Fans will faid out and leave. I left mainstream TV years ago. That’s ok. I will miss it. My money will probably stay in my pocket. You call it progress, I call it compromise for the almighty dollar. Call me a hater, perfect example of what I am saying and why I will be moving on. Thanks.

[@dorleyharris7195]

I understand your thoughts. Many concerns and questions are completely valid and deserve to be asked and answered and should not qualify as “a hater” …. We are all leery of big corporations as our lives are being ruled by them in most other “arenas”…. That said… i hope folks can explain their concerns and heart for rodeo traditions to stay intact in the wave of growth…. :) I hope you can be heard and not have to leave the Cowboy Channel :)

This "trend" of holding mics like the SM7B, that have no business being handheld, has got to stop. Actually let's just go back to hiding and placing mics out of frame all together.

[@lloydharrell7691]

PBR lost when he left probably the best announcer in Bull riding

[@clintkirby3319]

Don gay is the best bull rider ever competive troy Dunn is the best ever bull rider riding and hardest to get in the ground and John Davis and butch Kirby and Don gay trio 3 of the ones to 8 s bull ride on red one and John Davis vs red one a 94 pts n nfr 75 rd one butch Kirby vs red one a 96 pts and dongay vs red one a 91 pts and watch the bull rides and you believe it Don gay was the best bull rider 7080 s competive and butch Kirby was the best world champion bull rider riding and it's the truth 💯.

[@jeremiahlesleawilder5329]

Ive already had a conversation deleted for saying Donnie was the best and the bulls were just as rank back in the day just not as many as there are now and Tracy -4or something like that deleted the conversation but I agree with u 100 % arm chair bull rider can say whatever they want to cause they have no idea what it’s like and Donnie was 95 on Red one don’t cheat him lol

[@johnpierce2095]

I look atg the nfr as theres hundereds of thousands of fans who have never been to the nfr cause we cant afford it, so to me nfr is to much about the money and not making it more cost worthy for those of us who cant go,m i couldnt even afford a shirt there

[@davegutierrez5553]

Its not a sport. It's away of life. Stop saying athletes. Cowboys!

[@McDanielRanch]

Take the American to Mongolian let them see in person and in 20 years you-all will have Mongolian champions.

[@PapawK]

Buy the PBR, they need help!

[@SHGVM]

PBR an example of a great idea that sold out for money. It is more like Professional Wrestling now. All smoke and no fire.

[@Florida239]

If they can pay a man millions of Dollars to ride a bull for 8 seconds they ain’t hurting for money! I build skyscrapers and bridges for a living and I don’t make anywhere near that with 24 Yrs experience and being a superintendent so no I won’t donate to a man working 8 seconds at a time when I work 60 Hours plus a week 👎

[@Florida239]

I’m not being a ass just stating facts I used to ride bulls it’s not rocket science they make more than enough money for doing nothing
