  • Ty Murray Quote

    "I have loved the cowboy life – everything about it – since the day I was born. There’s no other feeling on this Earth like making great rides on great animals. I don’t care about going down in history as a great bull rider or bronc rider. I hope people will remember me as a great cowboy."
