The little town of Dartmoor in Western Victoria is gearing up for its biggest day of the year with the running of the Championship Chute Out Dartmoor Rodeo on Saturday 3rd February.
It's the biggest day of the year in Dartmoor when champion bulls like Terminator and Battlefield come to town.
Gates open at the Dartmoor Oval at 4 pm for a 6.30 pm start with a program that will see almost 100 competitors, including national champions Greg Deveraux, Glen Kent and Travis Young, take part in Junior and Open bull riding, saddle bronc & bareback riding, steer wrestling, barrel racing and a host of other traditional rodeo events.
The bull riding event will see competitors taking on Terminator and Battlefield, two of the best bulls in the country doing their very best to unseat riders.
With plenty of prize money up for grabs, you can bet every competitor will be trying their hardest to win.
With prize money ranging from $500 for the Junior Bull Ride Champion to $1500 for the Open, you can bet that every event will be hotly contested.
