Mutton Bustin

Mutton Bustin’ started in the 1980’s and has been widely popular in the circuit of small town rodeos. This event is a way of introducing the younger generation to the world of rodeo and rough stock riding. Therefore, at the PVCRA rodeo, this event is judged just like a real rough stock event. – Each contestant can score up to 100 possible points. 50 possible points for the rider and 50 possible points for the animal. All scores will be announced after each ride. The Champion (highest score) of the night will be announced in the arena by the announcer – This decision is FINAL.
