Our Stock
Our Professional Bucking sock is proudly supplied by Glen & Robyn Simmonds from Mareeba. Glen and Robyn make the long drive every year to support our event and their bulls really are the stars of our show. Glen carts the bulk of our other stock also, we would be lost without his support every year. Thanks Simmo!
Our Poddy's, Bullocks, Steer and Bucking Broncs are supplied by the amazing teams at Wolverton and Watson River Stations. These two stations not only help us out with stock, but each and every year they all come along and support our event, compete and are some of our judges and entertainment. We could not hold our event without the help, support and generosity of these two family owned and run stations. From the bottom of our hearts, THANK YOU
