Introducing Bulldogging.Pro
Steer wrestling is the only rodeo event where a contestant's run depends on another contestant who is not competing.
Your hazer is a full partner in the outcome and, by convention, takes about a quarter of the payoff. You are probably on somebody else's horse, and they are owed money too. None of that is written down anywhere — it lives in group texts, memory, and the occasional disagreement in a parking lot.
Three things nobody has systematized
1. Hazer coordination and credit
A hazer board per rodeo — who is hazing, who still needs one, who has an open slot, expiring when the performance starts. Standing partnerships that prefill. Search by region, availability, and travel radius.
Then the part that actually matters: when a run posts, the hazer is named on it and their share is calculated from the percentage you agreed before the run. Both of you see the same settlement ledger, with a settled flag.
We are not an escrow and we do not move money. We are the shared record that means neither of you is working from a different version of events. That is enough to make the argument disappear.
2. Horse sharing and mount money
One man hauls a horse, four men ride it, everybody owes. Commonly around 25 percent of winnings, but it gets negotiated.
Horse board per rodeo with open slots and where it is hauling from. Mount agreements recorded up front. A calculator that itemises what is owed per run. And horse workload tracking — how many runs across a weekend, across how many riders — which has genuine welfare value and which owners care about a great deal.
3. Strength and injury
Bulldogging has the worst injury profile of the timed events: shoulders, elbows, knees, and neck. Strength logs, injury records by region, and return-to-competition tracking — private by default, never shown to producers or horse owners.
A health log that somebody deciding whether to mount you could read is a health log nobody fills in honestly.
The eight-hour problem
Here is the practical reality this app is designed around. A bulldogger drives eight hours to a rodeo. When he gets there he needs a hazer and he needs a horse.
Solve that and the app is indispensable. Everything else — the feed, the entries, the steer history, the run segments, the marketplace — is genuinely useful and none of it is the reason somebody installs this in the first place.
It is still the whole community
The feed, the groups, the DMs, the people. Entries and draws. Steer records with speed, straight, drop and fight flags. Run segments so a 4.2 and a 4.2 stop looking like the same run. Schools, clinics, and youth and college standings.
If you bulldog, you should not need another app. That is the bar.
Built for the amateur side
Most steer wrestlers are at amateur rodeos, offseason jackpots, and high school and college. That is who the copy, the pricing and the defaults are written for.
And the rules are configuration rather than code, because two of them genuinely differ by association — loose-steer recovery and hazer interference, both of which end runs. See the rules reference.
