Danell Tipton

I thought I was going have to retire my old horse from steer wrestling competition, then I used SummitMax on him. He is back competing and is sounder than ever!

Daniel Tipton joined the International Professional Rodeo Association  in 1992 and in 1993 he made the finals finishing 7th in the world. In 1996 Tipton won the International Finals Rodeo average as well as the association’s bull year-end championship. He joined the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association in 1998 and ended up taking home The Rookie of the Year and the Bull Riding World titles. These are just some of his many accomplishments within the rodeo circuit. He was also inducted into the National Multicultural Western Heritage Hall of Fame in Fort Worth, Texas in 2015. There’s also a sign in his hometown that says, “Welcome to Spencer, home of World Championship Bull Rider Danell Tipton.” 

 Danell is passionate about bull riding and about helping at risk youth, “The most important thing is the kids, that’s what this is all about. These kids are our future, and I want to show them that they have options and can focus on something positive and good.”
