THE MAKING OF A LEGEND
~TR & Doc~
TR was a huge success at the Royal Gorge Park in Canon City, CO this weekend May 29-31 He even was ridden over the bridge-the highest suspension bridge in the world! Easily a thousand photos of him were snapped and surrounded by crowds with people hanging all over him, he was a perfect gentleman! ...and that with a helicopter hovering overhead. Plus, in the Old West town, shootout reenactments were in progress and the gunshots in close proximity didn't rattle him at all. This very public bull absolutely loves all the petting and scratching and attention he recieves.
July 3-5, TR is On Parade up at the Royal Gorge Park in Canon City, CO:

Not many like him!
JUNE 5, 2010 Clay is working TR at the Canon City Western Heritage Days this weekend. Last weekend at the Royal Gorge in CO was his first official event. He was terrific. Today he was even better. Gunfights going on all day, a large Civil War era cannon being shot every hour on the hour (TR was often within 50 feet) and people everywhere all around him. He crossed a small ditch with running water and took the lead when one of the older steers refused to go. TR did nearly everything Clay asked of him. He is exceeding our expectations and just keeps getting better and better. With more experience and confidence he will do some amazing things!
June 25-27, Amid lots of gunfire and frilly skirts, TR steals the show again. This time at the
The Single Action Shooters Assn Gun Show in Edgewood, NM:

Here TR is walking across The Royal Gorge Bridge, the highest suspension bridge in the world-and not a little scary! -with wooden floor boards, banners fluttering along its length & a relatively low rail! Beauty, trust and courage are certainly the hallmark of this great Texas Longhorn Bull!
Clay relates, "Here are a few pictures from the Fourth of July (Saturday) western reenactment weekend at The Gorge. This was for the "21 gun salute", which meant TR and (steer) Blizzard were posting the colors next to seven shooters. TR just barely flinched but held his position during all the shots. He was standing within 10 feet to the closest shooter. After posting the colors, both posed for pictures with the crowd. It would be safe to guess several hundred pictures were taken of them with people standing by their side while leaning on them and touching their horns". Clay goes on and says, "TR is getting better and better every day. I'm trying to teach him to kiss the ladies when they pet him. Gaining on it, but it will probably get both me and TR kicked out when he gives them a lick with his tongue!"
