Mike Lee grew up around livestock and climbed on his first steer at age 10. Throughout his teens, he moved up the ranks from to junior bulls to senior bulls and competed in high school rodeos. Lees riding talent was evident at a young age—he qualified for the National High School Rodeo two years and was offered rodeo scholarships from several colleges. Lee turned down those offers and went pro when he turned 18.

As a rookie, I learned to ride jump for jump—one bull at a time, says Lee. And, I tried to stay focused on what Gods path is for me.

This mild-mannered Texan etched his name in the history books as the first rider simultaneously earn both the Built Ford Tough World Finals event title and the Built Ford Tough Million Dollar World Championship in 2004.
