Hi David, Another excellent timing moment and rider particularly at his most vulnerable moment for injuries from the bull. At least there is an infield clown right at hand making a move to help him before some head butting or trampling. Are you right at ground level? I don't mean inside the field but on a riser of som kind because in each of your photos it seems you are slightly above ground level from the angles. Which by the way are better in these cases than standing on the ground? ted ----- Original Message ----- From: David Young <dsy@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Saturday, May 23, 2009 7:12 pm Subject: [LRflex] "The Dead Cowboy Bounce" To: leicareflex@xxxxxxxxxxxxx > Fellow Flexers: > > In the stock markets, when there is a fall, followed by a slight > rise, it is often referred to as the "Dead Cat Bounce", meaning > that > it may be coming up again, but not for long. > > This, then, may be considered the "Dead Cowboy Bounce". > > While he is certainly not dead (in fact, unhurt, other than a > few > bruises), it is where the sport can become very dangerous, indeed! > > http://www.furnfeather.net/Temps/Bull-ride-3.htm > > C&C welcomed, as always. > > Cheers! > --- > David Young > Logan Lake, BC > > Wildlife Photos: www.furnfeather.net > Personal Website: www.main.furnfeather.net
