5-6, 150...Wife, Francie (married May 2005)...Hobbies include raising and judging livestock...Toward end of 2000 season he sustained a severe leg injury in Bremerton, Wash....Finished 19th in 2001 after missing first part of year rehabbing. In 2002, at the Texas Stampede in Dallas after setting the world record, he re-injured his leg. Following the Wrangler NFR, doctors recommended immediate attention to his leg. In fact, the NFR ended on Sunday, and on Tuesday he was undergoing surgery. In a two-month span, he had eight surgeries to finally correct the problem (doctors had to take away part of the bone in his leg and then had to stretch what was left to make it the same length as the other leg). He spent the rest of the year in rehab, working out with the Texas Tech football team after returning to school full-time. He made the dean’s list...His 2007 season was slowed by elbow and ankle injuries…Enjoys watching Texas Tech football...Parents are Terry and Kathy and has one sister...Travels with Will Lowe, Royce Ford and Tom McFarland, and they call their group the “Wolfpack”...Rodeo idol is Bruce Ford
