Whether you're a fan of bull riding or simply appreciate the spirit of competition and perseverance, Jim Sharp is a true inspiration and a living legend.
One of the best ever in my opinion.
In the middle the whole time. Toes out.
Very sticky he was. Razor Sharp.
He made it look so easy. Great form
Neil great interview!!
I agree with you B. I’ve known Jim along time since we were kids and he has always dominated. I watched a podcast with Dale Brigsby and he told JB that Jim said he would beat him and JB said he would he would beat Jim easy(I’m sure Dale was just trying to get JB wired up) and JB responded by saying he would beat Jim easy. I’ve never met JB personally but the man can ride bulls. The funny thing is Jim would never say something like that, so I think Dale was picking at JB. No disrespect towards JB but I would pick Jim in his prime against anybody past or present. You can’t forget about Donnie Gay though, everybody had a chance to win 8 titles like Donnie did and only 1 has come close. That’s a feat in itself. You know some of the guys that have paid the price were very capable of challenging the record. That’s for sure
He is actually my dad I’m Will Sharp
Jim Sharp is definitely one of the best to ever do it.🫡
