Steer Wrestling is often known as the "big man's event" but wrestling a steer requires more than just brute strength.  With an average good time of 4.5 seconds, speed and agility are also important.  The successful steer wrestler, or bulldogger also must understand the principles of leverage.  The steer wrestler is assisted by a hazer, another cowboy on horseback tasked with keeping the steer running in a straight line.  When the bulldogger's horse pulls even with the steer, he eases down the right side of the horse and reaches for the steer's horns.  After grasping the horns, he digs his heels into the dirt.  As the steer slows, the bulldogger turns the animal, lifts up on its right horn and pushes down with his left hand in an effort to tip the steer over.  After the catch, the steer wrestler must either bring the steer to a stop or change the direction of the animal's body before the throw or is disqualified.  The clock stops when the steer is on his side with all four legs pointing in the same direction.  Sounds easy, right?
