Today I was watching a program on television about rodeo, cowboys, bucking horses and bulls.
It didn't take long before I had my sketchbook out and was doing some quick sketches.
I was able to get a little more detail on some of the horses when they showed the action in slow motion.
The amount of extension they achieve after they kick out when bucking just before their front feet touch the ground.

It is amazing the power they generate as they twist and turn trying to dislodge their rider.
I decided to leave the rider out of the sketches and try to capture as much of the movement and the different positions the horse can get its body into as it tries to get rid of the cowboy.
I managed to get enough detail into the sketches to create drawings.
