In good hands.

The Bull Hand Rodeo Academy bull riding and bullfighting school — led by PBR Canada Champion Zane Lambert and long-time PBR/CPRA bullfighter and Hall of Famer Scott Byrne — took over the Calnash Ag Events Centre in Ponoka, Alberta this past weekend.

Year after year, current and former competitors step up to run schools like this, passing on the tools that can’t be learned in a classroom — the kind of knowledge you only earn in and around the rodeo arena. And while Lambert and Byrne bring decades of experience, they’re far from alone. A crew of pros showed up to pour into the next generation, including Ashton Sahli, Garrett Green, Brock Radford, Cody Coverchuk, and alumni Tyler Pankewitz and Wacey Finkbeiner. Between them, that’s easily a century of experience — and the goal is simple: help the next wave get better, safer, and more prepared.

From mental performance and mental health, to strength and conditioning, to the business side of the sport — insurance and all — Bull Hand covers every angle. After bucking hundreds of bulls across three days, there’s no doubt: the future of bull riding and bullfighting is in good hands.

On a personal note, being able to attend these schools is valuable for me, too. During a stretch of the year when western events are a little more sparse, it’s a perfect chance to sharpen up before the season gets busy. I’ve learned a ton from the bull riding world through opportunities like this, and I’m excited to keep photographing schools across the other rodeo events as well.

Huge thanks to Zane, Scott, and the entire Bull Hand team for having me out year after year. I might have only made it for the final day this time, but this weekend is a pillar of my season — and I’m already looking forward to 2027.
