“Ty Murray was an excellent speaker to lead in to our night time activity at the San Antonio Rodeo. Everyone I talked to really enjoyed learning about his life, the progression of his career, and the intricacies of a professional bull rider. For most of us, it literally was our first rodeo. So everyone learned a lot hearing from one of the most legendary riders in the sport. All around, an enjoyable and memorable experience for all!”
Ty Murray will be speaking about his young life growing up poor on the horse race track in AZ and NM. He will share his journey through Little Britches, High-School, College and then to professional rodeo. He will talk about his dream of beating Larry Mahan’s record for All-Around Championships and his quite unusual training under Larry. He will share how he won 6 All around Championships (1 away from his goal of beating Larry) and then being sidelined for 3 years because of injury. During this time he had just purchased a 1,800 acre ranch and had to figure out how to continue paying for it. He will talk about coming back from injury to win his 7th All-Around championship of which he still holds the record for the rough-stock All Around Champion. He will share how he co-founded the PBR and the journey and challenges from starting this organization from the ground up. Finally he will talk about his own ranching experience and owning a cow/calf operation in Stephenville, TX.
After having one of the most iconic careers in rodeo history, nine-time world champion Ty Murray will be inducted into the RODEOHOUSTON Hall of Fame in March of 2026.
The Ty Murray Top Hand Award honors rodeo cowboys who have made significant and lasting contributions to the sport of rodeo and its heritage.
