For the 11th year, four-time NFR qualifier Cole Elshere is hosting his annual Bares, Broncs, Bulls, and Bibles clinic in Faith, South Dakota. This free roughstock and spiritual clinic, created by the accomplished saddle bronc rider, offers young rodeo athletes the opportunity to learn from some of the best in the business, both in the arena and in life.
Elshere noted that many of today’s top roughstock competitors have come through this very clinic, a testament to its lasting impact on the sport and the athletes who participate.
Even after recently undergoing surgery to repair pinched nerves in his neck, Elshere was determined not to miss the chance to give back.
“A week ago, I had surgery. I’m feeling great and just thankful that, through my rodeo connections, I’ve had the best people in the world help me heal,” Elshere said. “I’m just so grateful to still be part of this sport after all these years. Whether my next chapter is riding again or continuing to put on these camps, I’m looking forward to it either way.”
