fine for a few, but it was starvation for the overall lot. Just enough
was being paid out to keep them coming backâwith hopes it would
be their turn to win the next show; kind of like dangling the proverbial carrot.
All of this changed however in 1936. That was the year professional rodeo was born. Rodeo organization was actually started
in the Northern states in 1929 with the formation of the Rodeo Association of America (RAA). This association was made up of managers and producers and did not include the cowboy in decision
making and therefore was often contentious, seldom recognized
and eventually it was merged with the Cowboys Turtle Association
(CTA).
Who were the CTA? Well it all started at the Boston ? ???????????Q??????????????????????????
