An unfiltered look at the grit, sacrifice and faith behind modern rodeo, told through the lens of Jerome and Tiffany Davis. From the early mornings on the ranch to the bright lights of PBR team competition with the Carolina Cowboys, this podcast captures what it truly means to build a life around the sport of bull riding.
Jerome — a world champion and Carolina Cowboys head coach — and Tiffany – the glue that keeps it all together – open the gate on the real story: the injuries, the comebacks, the business of rodeo, the pressure of leading a team, and the responsibility of carrying Western heritage forward. Together, they share the realness of arena life — managing a ranch, mentoring young riders and navigating the evolving world of professional bull riding.
Rooted in faith, resilience and hard work, THIS COWBOY LIFE isn’t just about eight seconds in the chute. It’s about the 24/7 commitment behind it — the dirt, the discipline, the community and the code that defines the Western way of life.

The Next Eight Seconds
Jerome and Tiffany Davis have built a life around bull riding, bucking bulls, family, faith, and the Western way of life. In this episode of This Cowboy Life, Jerome and Tiffany take us inside Davis Rodeo Ranch in Archdale, North Carolina, and share the story of how a former dairy farm became one of the most important places in their lives
Jerome opens up about building a career in the sport after the 1998 accident that left him paralyzed. But for Jerome, the accident never changed who he was. He stayed in bull riding, built Davis Rodeo Ranch, helped grow events like Wild West Wednesday, and eventually became the head coach of the Carolina Cowboys.

He Was Told He’d Never Walk Again. Then He Tried to Let Her Go
On March 14, 1998, Jerome Davis climbed into the bucking chute in Fort Worth, Texas, to ride Knock-‘Em-Out John. The day started horribly. The weather was bad, Jerome’s flight got diverted to Waco, Texas, and security wouldn’t let Jerome in the building without his credential. He almost missed his bull. Tiffany remembers having a strange feeling that night that something was about to change.
Jerome eventually made it to climb into the chute. 8 seconds later, he’s lying face down in the dirt, knocked out with a broken neck that would leave him paralyzed from the chest down. In this episode of This Cowboy Life, Jerome and Tiffany tell the full story of the accident, the hospital, the fear, the faith, the people who showed up, and the reality of building a life together after everything changed. Jerome opens up about hearing he would never walk again, why his first thought was whether he would ever ride bulls again, and the mindset that still drives him to believe he will walk one day.

Jerome Davis was a PRCA World Champion and on his way to another gold buckle when, on March 14, 1998, he was thrown from a bull named Knock-Em-Out John. The accident left him face-down and motionless on the arena dirt, an eerie silence filling the air. When he regained consciousness, doctors delivered news that, even now, Jerome still doesn’t fully accept — he would never ride bulls again. He was paralyzed from the chest down. What no one realized at the time was that Jerome wasn’t the only cowboy in the room who lived by the code “Love and Try.” His fiancée, Tiffany, did too.

[…] Yeah. He didn't want to say nothing to Austin. Well, I already kind of did, but Austin was like, it wasn't really taking me serious. I remember Austin. I was going. I didn't really care. Austin said, you don't like my hat, Tiff. I said, well, no, I think you'd look better in your straw hat. She kept saying that. I think you'd look better in your straw hat.
