FAQ
Is there any way to get a refund for my deposit?
Unfortunately, we do not offer cash refunds on deposits. Please review our deposit and cancellation policy carefully before submitting payment.
In certain circumstances, your deposit may be approved as a credit toward another school within 6 months.
Credit will only be considered for:
A death in the immediate family
An injury that prevents the rider from attending — a doctor’s note is required and must be provided within one week before or one week after the scheduled school.
All credits are subject to approval.

7. Agreement
By checking the box below and completing my payment, I acknowledge that:
I have read these Terms & Conditions in their entirety.
I understand all payment policies before making payment.
I voluntarily agree to be legally bound by these Terms & Conditions.
I understand that my payment is FINAL and NON-REFUNDABLE.
☐ I HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO THE DEPOSIT & PAYMENT TERMS ABOVE. I UNDERSTAND THAT ALL PAYMENTS ARE FINAL, NON-REFUNDABLE, AND THAT ANY FUTURE CREDIT IS SOLELY AT THE DISCRETION OF GARY LEFFEW BULL RIDING SCHOOL LLC, EXPIRES AFTER SIX (6) MONTHS, AND IS NON-TRANSFERABLE.
This version is much stronger for chargeback disputes because it:
States the customer is the authorized payer.
Explains why the deposit is non-refundable (it reserves a limited spot and resources).
Has the customer specifically agree not to dispute the payment based on cancellation or changing their mind.
Makes future credits discretionary, time-limited, and non-transferable.
Clearly documents that the customer accepted these terms before paying.
No agreement can guarantee you’ll win every chargeback, but having customers affirmatively accept terms like these generally gives you stronger evidence than a simple “No refunds” notice.
Do I actually get on a real bull or fake bull ?
Yes, you get on a real bull , sheep , steer whatever age and level you’re at. Gary will have you do different learning drills then you will get on a live animal . Does Gary require insurance to ride ?
Does Gary Require Insurance to Ride?
No, personal medical insurance is not required to participate in Gary Leffew’s Bull Riding School LLC. However, insurance is strongly recommended because bull riding is a high-risk and inherently dangerous sport, and serious injuries can occur.
Riders traveling from outside the United States do carry their own medical/travel insurance that provides coverage while participating in bull riding activities in the United States.
Gary Leffew’s Bull Riding School LLC does not provide medical insurance and is not responsible for medical bills, hospital or emergency expenses, loss of wages, or other expenses resulting from an injury. Each rider is responsible for their own medical coverage and related expenses.
WARNING
UNDER TEXAS LAW (CHAPTER 87, CIVIL PRACTICE AND REMEDIES CODE), A FARM ANIMAL PROFESSIONAL OR FARM OWNER OR LESSEE IS NOT LIABLE FOR AN INJURY TO OR THE DEATH OF A PARTICIPANT IN FARM ANIMAL ACTIVITIES, INCLUDING AN EMPLOYEE OR INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR, RESULTING FROM THE INHERENT RISKS OF FARM ANIMAL ACTIVITIES.
By participating, riders acknowledge that bull riding involves inherent risks and are encouraged to make sure they have adequate medical insurance before riding.
