At the 55th Annual Governor’s Buffalo Roundup in Custer State Park in South Dakota, the bison aren’t the only draw this year. Governor Kristi Noem, with an ever-rising profile in the Republican Party, joined cowboys and cowgirls on horseback for the September 25th festivities.

For South Dakota’s 33rd Governor, the Buffalo Roundup is arguably the best day in South Dakota.

“I love it,” she told me. “It’s great to have so many visitors, and I’m glad we have good weather too.” This year’s event drew about 20,000 spectators to the state park, a 71,000-acre oasis home to about 1,300 free-range bison.

You need the rear one if riding a horse that stops hard, or if you are roping a steer! She’s also riding on a cutting saddle.

She sure is! But you’re turned on by the whips and leather!

Can't put my finger on it. Kind of a crazy look to her and she's a little too Hollywood for South Dakota.

I’m turned on by that face picture in the cowboy hat...

Yep!!! Had a rope horse years ago that wouldn’t take one at all
