The farther they rode him, the stronger he got, I felt.” “He was really good at the Cody Snyder events in Calgary too, they put two trips on him there that were really good. “I think his trip in Edmonton was his best,” Volz said without hesitation. Logging nine trips in 2022, Volz said it is not hard to pick his favorite out for Phantom Fury. I guess he has no horns either, which helps for most guys.” You might not always win first on this bull, but you aren’t going to be much further back than second. “Does he give you a shot to win, that’s the other thing. Anytime you can get on one that turns back close and gets off the ground on the front end and kicks through it, to me that is what any bull rider would want to get on.” “When Lonnie rode him in Saskatoon, he rode him picture perfect. He usually turns back in one or two jumps, he pops and kicks and has all the timing that you could ask for. He bails out of the chutes, he gets in the air, he kicks through it. Volz, a championship level bull rider in his own time, said that Phantom Fury’s flashy, high jumping and kicking style is exactly what would make him put his name down to attempt the powerful animal athlete.

Their decision was to keep the bucker another year and put a little more experience and weight on him. With some championship blood in his veins, Volz says himself and Wild Hoggs co-owner Ty Streeter had quite a few conversations about what that bull needed to be successful. But that’s part of this business too, there are so many unknowns.”įive-year-old Phantom Fury was raised by the Wild Hoggs. The perfect night would be both those bulls having a clean shot and having their days, and the judges deciding which was better. That bull has been so good for so long, you hate to see it come down to that. “It was super unfortunate what happened with Happy Camper there. “They are all great bulls, and they have been all year long,” said Volz. Two-time PBR Canada Bull of the Year Happy Camper concluded the regular season atop the standings, but a tough final out cost the bovine a record setting-third title. In the fierce title race, Langham Kid from Two Bit Bucking Bulls was second with a 44.25-point average score. When you do get them, you damn sure appreciate them.” Sometimes it’s the difference between a slip or a hip or a trip or stumble or too quick a buckoff and it changes everything in a split second. A lot has to line up to come out on top.” ![]() Everyone is fairly competitive, and everyone has that one, or two superstars. Canada has some incredible bucking bulls and amazing stock contractors. It’s pretty special to see him get rewarded for that. “A bull like Phantom Fury, he gives his all every time you bring him to town. Only other contractors really know, but it’s the time spent with these animals, and the care you constantly give.” “There is a lot of work that goes into these athletes that people don’t see behind the scenes. “It means a lot,” said the Wild Hoggs Bucking Bulls’ Justin Volz about the honor. The out clinched Phantom Fury the coveted title of 2022 PBR Canada Bull of the Year.
