Bobby Mote was born into a family of horse trainers, primarily in the cutting horse industry. At 5 years old he was showing in the youth classes. Later he turned to rodeo and specialized in bareback riding. Rodeo captured him for the next 25 years where he had tremendous success including 15 consecutive qualifications to the National Finals Rodeo, one NFR average title, two National Circuit titles, 4 PRCA world championships and in 2022 he was inducted into the Prorodeo Hall of Fame. Upon his retirement from bareback riding, he shifted his focus to training team roping horses.
Today he trains and competes in the rapidly growing team roping futurities. He enjoys working with smart athletic prospects and recognizes the importance of his show horse’s appearance, this is where he was introduced to Shine Equine. “ I love the Shine products; they are easy to use and leave my horses looking their best without the use of chemicals which could be harmful to them and me.”
