∙ 13y agoBarrel Racing started when women wanted an event to compete in with each other that would be a challenge, but still fair. They came up with the idea of taking Texas Oil Drums. 55 gallon barrels, and setting them up in a cloverleaf pattern, with one left turn and two rights. Then they would take their husbands roping horses and see who could get through the course with the fastest time.

Barrel racing was invented by women. It is thought that the wives of cowboys in the rodeo got together on their horses and created the sport. It eventually became part of the rodeo, but at first it was judged instead of timed.
