Steer wrestling is a rodeo event where a steer is released from a chute and a mounted rider must jump from the horse and wrestle the steer to the ground by throwing it onto its side. The event is timed and the rider's time is recorded. Carvings and wood signs depicting steer wrestling can be found in many western-style stores and online retailers. They are often made from wood or other materials and feature images of steers and cowboys in action.
