I live my life 8-seconds at a time as an adrenaline junkie that goes event to event, matching up against some of the rankest bulls in the world in an 8-second battle for supremacy.
Good stuff!
It's a combination of practice, experience that will help there. Drop barrels are good as you'll always be pushing yourself to the front, but just stick with it, the "hard part" is over!

Most bull's start at the age of 3, and often will continue past 10 years of age. Once Bull's are retired, they are welcomed into the breeding program and many live out their lives on their ranches.

Share Answer: 
Yes, as long as the rodeo doesn't have qualifying requirements. Most don't.
Try and get some good direction on where to start competing in terms of quality stock, good calibre, with good bullfighters, etc.
Also try and find someplace with a practice pen nearby, etc.

Fundamentally, the rider is staring between the bull's shoulders, right in front of his hand, "The Spot". When the bull goes in that direction, you kinda follow those front shoulders. But it's quite difficult as they can change direction in the air, or belly roll, etc., and that's only a guide, haha. A big part of it is just matching the bull's moves a split second at a time. Resetting your feet, position, and staying in the middle. You can never guess or anticipate where or what they're going to do. They can feel that weakness and take advantage of it in a heartbeat.

Share Answer: 
The best way is to create a sponsorship package that gives something to the sponsors, not just "exposure" or "branding". Stuff like tickets to events, meet and greet at sponsors, and such. Going after sponsors is a tough game, you're competing against little league baseball teams and the olympics... you need to stand out and be original. Think Activation.
Best way to get out there? Big events, big results... and social media.
