One of the latest "bull riding" helmets to hit the market is being produced by a company called Cowboy Armour. We find it puzzling why they would try to mislead potential users with inaccurate and misleading information.
Take a look at this blurb found on their website related to their helmets....

Most other major league sports require you wear proper certified equipment by HECC (Hockey Equipment Certified Council) and/or CSA (Canadian Standards Association). HECC and CSA certified helmets have a sticker indicating their certification, allowing you the satisfaction of knowing the helmet will best serve your needs.

Allowing me the satisfaction of knowing the helmet will best serve my needs? REALLY? Did I buy it to play HOCKEY? Um, no...you said BULL RIDING! Kinda of a different beast....
Perhaps true if you were using the helmet for what it was originally certified to do by HECC. These helmets have been modified in a variety of ways and clearly no longer meet the original "HECC Certification". I guess if a puck or stick is equal to a hoof or horn...but the reality is HECC does not provide any Certification for the ASTM F2530 Bull Riding Helmet Standard.
Although we have no plans of spending $495 USD, signing a Hold Harmless & Indemnification Agreement to confirm, from what we can tell, the Cowboy Armour Helmets are a Mission M11, a LaCrosse 1/8" Steel Mask and an add on Under Armour 4-Way Chin Cup. From everything we can gather that would be about $100 RETAIL USA...
We commend you if you truly do create a product that protects bull riders, but don't hide behind false misleading information and tie a monstrous price tag to it.
Think twice before signing a HOLD Harmless & Indemnification Agreement with ANYONE! Essentially they could put a bomb inside it knowingly...and there isn't anything you could do.

ride, paint and write well! I enjoy your blogs. Wish your Klu was a mare. My daughter drames of finding a Crabbet mare to breed to her stallion. Our first horse was a remarkable Ferzon mare who looked much like your gelding. She died suddenly in 2003 at 24 years. We still miss her as I'm sure you miss your stallion.
