Bio
After qualifying for the NFR an impressive 11 times, Robinson eventually became involved the business side of the sport. He realized that traditional rodeo was using archaic ideas and systems, and helped to modernize the sport. His two best years as a pro came in 1974 and 1975, when he finished fourth in the PRCA world standings. He estimates he got on more than 3,000 bulls throughout his career, and there were years where he was attempting as many as 250 in a single season. Since retiring in the early 80s, he’s been just as busy. For years he held a bull riding school at his ranch outside Fort Collins, Colo. Cody Lambert attended when he was 13 years old. Michael Gaffney and Owen Washburn were even younger when they first came to Robinson’s school.
