Specialty Act - Max Reynolds

Max Reynolds has seen plenty of change. It’s hard not to when you’ve been around rodeos as long as he has. And now, after 40 years performing his acts for fans at rodeos and Wild West shows across the nation, he said he’s part of a dying breed.

It’s not one trick or the other that separates Reynolds. It’s that, in an age of rodeo that focuses more on the cowboy and less on the rodeo act, he’s one of the few still fine-tuning two separate disciplines.

“In years past, rodeos always had a lot of entertainment acts, but anymore they might only have one specialty act,” said Reynolds, who still travels the country when not at his home base in Nebraska. “The economy is a part of it, so the barrel men have started doing more acts themselves.”

That’s a change from when the veteran performer first broke into the business. Then, he said, there would be multiple specialty acts every week.

 

 

When Reynolds takes center stage for his performances, he said he’ll bring a little of the old-time, multi-act rodeo spirit with him.

He has two main acts. The Roman riding sends him around the arena and through a series of fire-laden obstacles while standing on the backs of two horses.

“I got started when I was pretty young just by watching other guys doing it at the local county fair,” Reynolds said. “I would go back to the ranch, get a couple old saddle horses together, and I just jumped up on them.”

His proficiency with a rope also grew out of long days on the farm. “I always had a rope in my hand, roping cats, dogs, chickens or whatever I saw,” he said. “I was self-taught for a lot of years.

 

Rockin' Robbie Hodges

 

Rockin' Robbie Hodges has established himself as one of the professional rodeo world's hottest new barrel man and funny guy personalities. His quick wit and off-the-cuff banter, as well as carefully thought-out acts, keep the crowd entertained and looking at him for the entire performance. Rockin' Robbie always promotes positive, non-violent, clean family humor, and has an uncanny knack for instantly bonding with children of all ages. He genuinely enjoys being a rodeo clown because he likes to talk to and entertain people, especially children. He eagerly takes on the rodeo performance, attempting to personalize each show by taking the time to talk to and get to know as many families as possible. He has been acclaimed by rodeo announcers, stock contractors, and cowboys alike as being the most exciting new clown in rodeo today.
