Helmets and rider protection vests are required and are provided. Chaps may be worn, but will not be provided. The minimum age to ride is four years old. If your child is less than 25 lbs. we reserve the right to “lift off” the rider, so that they get the experience of riding the sheep without hitting the ground.

Our family-friendly volunteers will guide each Mutton Buster through every step of the process. This includes special fittings of the helmets and vests, help from our “chute boss” that places the rider on the sheep and guides them on the best techniques of riding. The Chute Boss will stay in the chute with the rider and sheep until the gate opens.
