Moss Vale Rodeo a wet 'n' wild ride
The 2006/2007 National Finals Rodeo series got off to a bumper start at the Moss Vale Rodeo on Saturday, with large crowds braving the rain to watch the cowboys and cowgirls work their magic in the ring.
With a jam-packed program of bull riding, bronc riding, steer wrestling, roping, barrel racing and poddy riding, the Moss Vale Rodeo provided saw some fierce competition as competitors did their best to get off to a good start in the first rodeo in the southern zone for the points year.
"For the southern zone rodeo circuit it was one of the best days I've seen on the circuit," said South Coast rodeo identity Matt Besant, who provided the bucking bull stock for Saturday's event.
"There was a fantastic crowd for the event, considering the weather we had for it."
As always the bull riding events attracted large crowds, although star bull Hurricane didn't get bucked on the night after the cowboy scheduled to ride Hurricane could not make it to the event.
Nevertheless there was plenty of bull riding action in the ring, with Reese Peterson winning the bull riding event on 84 points, just ahead of Goulburn-based bull rider Ben Jones.
Riding the bull Heads, Peterson won the event with 84 points, just four points ahead of Jones who was riding bull Easy Money.
