the "flank strap" is a soft cotton rope at least 5/8" in diameter and is used without extra padding like sheepskin or neoprene. it is tied around the bull's flank. contrary to popular belief, the flank strap is not tied around the bull's testicles. this rope is to encourage the bull to use his hind legs more in a bucking motion, as this is a true test of a rider's skill in maintaining the ride. if it is applied improperly a rider may request to ride again, as the bull will not buck well if the flank strap is too tight. the flank strap is applied by the stock contractor or his designate.
