Injury Report for September 2009
- Douglas Duncan of
Alvin,
Texas has been home rehabilitating his knee & hip after going under the knife twice in on month.
Douglas had surgery on his knee first and then returned a month later to have surgery on his hip. The injuries were on opposite sides & he would not have been able to walk so he opted to have them a month apart. Douglas has stayed busy hanging out with his friends & judging a few local bull ridings while getting prepared to return to the arena in November before heading to his second NFR experience in
Las Vegas in December.
- Jay Byrd Morrow of
Wayland,
Iowa underwent surgery on July 7th in
Dallas,
Texas to repair some bone spurs/injury to his hip area. Jay was taken care of by fellow retired bull rider/CBR judge Layne McCasland where recovering here in
Texas. Jay traveled home for a few weeks and then went to
Pittsburg,
PA to undergo a pelvic/abdominal surgery repair which had enabled him to compete. (Note: This was the same doctor that preformed the same exact surgery on World Champion Bull Rider, Matt Austin.) I talked with Jay the other day & he said that he had been working out trying to get back to compete at the CBR Finale in
Kansas City,
MO., later in October but things were going a little slower than planned.
- Steve Woolsey of
Payson,
Utah got stepped on at a PRCA event two weeks ago & underwent surgery on September 10th and will be out of competition until the NFR in
Las Vegas in December. Steve thought he had broken his ankle, went & had x-rays that night and there were no fractures. He went back to the doctor the following week for a follow-up and was told that if he did not have surgery he would end up crippled the rest of his life.
- Clint Craig of
Mena,
Arkansas injured his groin at a PRCA event in
Washington. Clint plans on taking 2-3 weeks off and plans on being in
Lubbock,
Texas for the CBR West Texas Shoot-Out event.
