Coleadero en La Nopalera

Well done!!



After the run and knock down...there is the stop right in front of los musicos!!




Fixing the saddle before the next ride and of course posing for a serious picture.




Charro Mexicano


Another great successful ride by this charro who I believe had the most knock downs that day.




This past Saturday, my uncle Pancho and aunt Emilia had their monthly coleadero at their Rancho La Nopalera just north of Sweetwater. Coleadero is a forerunner to steer wrestling or known in some parts as bulldogging. The event is accomplish when the charro rides up to the steer/bull and grabs his tail. The charro then passes his tell under his right leg and somehow makes a slight turn which causes the steer/bull to fall on his back. The quicker the better

I still think you need to change your title from "Zermeno" to "Zerpito"! How is school going?
