Just as an FYI, I saw your comment and was curious and looked into it. Turns out that's not anything that hurts the animal. "Contrary to the claims by animal rights groups (such as PETA or HSUS), the flank strap does not touch the horses' genitals (which are located beneath the tail on females and between the hind legs on males)." So it's ok. You can go watch some more bronc riding :)

I don't know. Different opinions from all sites. I did not enjoy the event, it was overall quite boring - so it was also my last rodeo from the entertainment point of view. Sorry.

I wish the last two posters would have focused on the quality of the photograph. This is an excellent Image. It is very hard to get this kind of photo at a rodeo. Well done.

n2Photography22: Thank you. It was very dark and everything was moving so fast, so all pictures got blurry. Additionally photography was not really permitted... at least signs told us that, but it was not enforced.

This is a great shot and I love the blurred action. By the way, I have been a ProRodeo photographer for there PRCA Sports magazine for over 6 years and I can tell you that their is no abuse from these straps . They are lined with either fleece or lambs wool on the under side so they don't injure the horses.

Hi EJ, Thank you. Because I do not know anything about the sport, I just have a set of opinions from fans and enemies. So, I leave the judgment to the pros.

There was not much light, therefore I got this motion like image... which turned out to be perfect.
