Bodacious: Master of Disaster
The Baddest Bull to Ever Buck
Current research is informed by 200+ hours of exclusive, firsthand interviews with the legends who shaped the sport, including:
Sammy Andrews: Owner of Bodacious and ProRodeo Hall of Fame Stock Contractor.
Tuff Hedeman: 4x World Champion and the man whose face Bodacious famously broke.
Cody Custer: 1992 World Champion and PBR Co-Founder.
Jim Sharp: "The Razor," the first man to ride all 10 bulls at the NFR.
Clint Branger: PBR Co-Founder and one of only a few to ride Bodacious to the buzzer (and he did it twice!),
and others whose lives and legacies helped define modern bull riding.
A multi-year research project slated for late 2026 which is the definitive biography of the 1,900-pound athlete that redefined the limits of fear and physics in the 1990s.
