HPBR Finals Round 1 – placing 5th
Born in Chihuahua, Mexico, Rocky McDonald lived there until sixth grade before moving to the United States. He began his riding career at age 15. My brother rode bareback horses, and I had a cousin who rode. So, I thought Id try it. The first time I rode I got my head slammed into the chute, and I didnt ride again for quite a while. But, the second time I rode was at a rodeo. I won second place and $600. I thought this is a pretty easy way to make money, recalls McDonald. Throughout his teens, McDonald rode in high school and junior rodeos. It was during this time, he suffered several of the most serious injuries of his career. At one high school rodeo, I fell off, and a bull stepped on my head. I was out nine months, and I started wearing a helmet after that. Another time a bull stepped on my chest, and it damaged my liver and kidneys. I was out for five months from that. McDonald remains close to his Mexican roots. I have family thats still living there, and I also have a rodeo business in Mexico. We sell roping steers, bull ropes, and other equipment. So, I generally go there several times a week, states McDonald.
