Great horses are hard to come by. Erin Johnson shares the legacy of her great gelding and breakaway horse, Bubba, and all he has done for her career.
About Erin Johnson
Erin Johnson grew up on an Eastern Colorado, fourth-generation cattle ranch.
“Ranch work was always a part of our lives,” said Johnson, a three-time WPRA World Champion breakaway roper. “My siblings and I, we really didn’t get into rodeo. My parents took us to some gymkhanas when we were younger, and we learned to ride bareback. I don’t even think we had saddles until we were like 8, when we started showing in 4H. We showed cattle a lot.”
