Well I know that you all have some favorite contractors and I am wondering who they are and why(can be bull or other rough stock or both). Also if you have any contractor web-sites that you enjoy let us know! My Favorites are: J Bar J They are some of the best at what they do. They are more known for their bucking horse program then their bull program although they have several great bulls as well. They have raised several NFR and world champion bucking horses. What really sets them apart from some of the other contractors is that they also do an amazing job producing their events. I guarantee you that if their name is on it you are going to have excellent stock in all events and a great time while you are there. They just launched a new site at: www.jbarjrodeo.com/Davis/White/PMS Contractors out of Texas they have some of my favorite bulls coming out of their program. The names include Chief, Sky Chief and Smiley! Last but certainly not least: Robinson/Tedesco With bulls like Acid and bull names like Chicken on a Chain (even if they did not name the bull) how can you go wrong. They are starting to make a good name for themselves as a solid truly East Coast contractor. Kelly and I also had the good fortune of talking with one half of this team in Vegas and found him to be a fun guy, a very enthusiastic contractor and a decent Black Jack player.

Jerry Nelson/ Jim Crowthers - They can load two trailers full off short go quality bulls
Sammy Andrews - He only hauls bulls that BUCK!
Harlan Robertson and Henry Wilson - If these guys hauled strictly to PBR events, they would blow everyone out of the water for contractor of the year. They have the most underrated program out there, but Chad Berger and Larry Ryken have taken notice by purchasing a bunch of great bulls.

Thomas Taylor of Taylor Made has some really good bulls including, Wardance, Pandoras Box, Super jacket along with 7 other finals Bulls. I think he is very underated.
CSB you are so right about Jerry Frontier Rodeo is second to none as far as bull power including Kings Court, Big Bucks, Just a Dream, White Line Fever, Claytons Pet,Show Stopper, B.A., and Rocket Man.

My favorite is definitely Frontier Rodeo's bunch of bulls. Jerry Nelson does a hell of a job. I just really started noticing that this past year in the PBR. Great bulls.
My second favorite is probably D&H Page. Say what you want, but they have a ton of bulls that can buck. And they just keep reloading. That's what a lot of money can do for you I guess.

I'd have to say that my all time fave would have to be the Honeycutt Rodeo Co. Roy Honeycutt and his family really know how to put on a great rodeo. Mr. Honeycutt reminds me of the kind of man that says whats on his mind whether he steps on your toes or not. I respect that alot. Not to mention their Christian ethics, pride in their country and military....and pride and treatment of their stock. My hats off to them. Can only wish that if I ever start my stock co. that I'll be half as good as the Honeycutts.

Also, I want to add Hebert Bucking Bulls to the list. Cody Hebert has about 5 bulls in the long-go this weekend, including Shane, Kid Rooster, Shark, and Semi-Automatic.
I went to high school with him and we were pretty good friends, and I keep forgetting him darnit. But he has some good ones, and he will be one to look out for in the future.

Well i have one more to add to this group.
Cory Check-He has always had some great bulls and started out small with just a few bulls here and there. They were very solid bulls and he now has done a great job building on this base. I have seen a few of his bulls at various events but this weekends PBR ET event was the first time in a while I was able to see a large number of his bulls in the same place. They were very very impressive. He has done an amazing job building up his heard. To top it all off he and his brothers have been involved in all areas of rodeo for a long time and are great guys. Their parents should be commended for raising them right.
