The ProRodeo Hall of Fame invites those seeking an inspirational, adventure-filled, true Western journey to attend an immersion into all things rodeo.
At Cowboy Experience, a three-day weekend event held October 20–23, 2016, at The Resort at Paws Up, 50 guests will get up close access to four authentic rodeo legends and hone their equestrian skills under the tutelage of ProRodeo Hall of Fame inductees.
The special-guest inductees include Larry Mahan, an eight-time all-around and bull-riding world champion; Monty “Hawkeye” Henson, a three-time world champion saddle bronc rider; Bud Munroe, a world champion saddle bronc rider and Paul Tierney, a world tie-down and all-around rodeo champion.
These honest-to-goodness cowboys will immerse you in the ways of the West with educational workshops, rodeo demonstrations, trail rides, sporting clays shooting, plenty of cowboy campfire stories under the stars and much more. Some schedule highlights include Up and at ‘Em Trail Rides, Conversation and Connection with the Horse, Tales from Hawkeye and Tierney’s Rope ‘Em Cowboy.
Cowboy Experience is an all-inclusive weekend package priced at $3,350 per couple or $2,199 per person. The package includes luxury-home accommodations, all meals, airport transfers, a cattle drive and close-up conversation with the inductees. The event is limited to the first 50 people who register.
Paws Up is a 37,000-acre ranch that features more than 100 miles of trails and 10 miles of private access to the legendary Blackfoot River. During the weekend, Cowboy Experience participants will herd cattle across the land Lewis & Clark explored on an authentic cattle drive, sharpen shooting skills at a professional sporting clays course or opt for a myriad of additional wilderness adventures.
Paws Up offers a selection of luxury homes, each impeccably appointed in an unrivaled tapestry of rustic elegance. The homes blend Western-chic decor with plentiful amenities, including kitchens, hot tubs, personal transportation, flat-screen televisions, high-speed wireless Internet, laundry and more.
