bulldogging

Rodeo takedown sport

Bulldogging is a rodeo event where a rider on horseback chases a steer, leaps from the horse onto the animal's horns, and wrestles it to the ground.

Also called steer wrestling.

The term comes from an early technique of biting the steer's lip to bring it down, as a bulldog might: He won the bulldogging competition in under four seconds.
