STEER WRESTLING

Of all the events in rodeo, is it said that steer wrestling offers the greatest amount of eye appeal to the spectator. It is a display of strength and an exhibition of finesse and skill.

With the aid of a hazer, the contestant jumps from a horse running around 30 mph, reaches for the steer's sharp horns, slides him to a stop, and lays him on the ground. It is a controversy among many as to which is the most important in this event: timing, strength, or leverage. Can you decide?
