25 YEARS AGO today, the great Chainsaw was humanely put to sleep with an injection by local Yass vet Peter Gibb.
He passed away peacefully in his paddock on the outskirts of Yass after it appeared his tired old legs couldn’t carry him anymore. He was 15 years old.
His passing was acknowledged during a rodeo at Port Macquarie when about 180 cowboys removed their hats and held a minutes silence such was the respect and admiration for this great bull.
Chainsaw won 8 bucking bull of the year awards from 1987 - 1994.
Chainsaw was bought by George Hempenstall out of the Homebush saleyards as a young calf.
Chainsaw also acquired his ear tag #327 from Hempenstall after he simply got the number from his letterbox.
John Condon later bought Chainsaw off Hempenstall as George was seeking to further his rodeo career in the United States.
Rodeo great Garry McPhee was Chainsaw’s stock contractor and McPhee trucked and promoted him at rodeo’s from way down south all the way up to northern Queensland and everywhere in between.
After 25 years there has still never been a bucking bull that has reached the heights and accolades of Chainsaw and we doubt there never will be another in the future.
So again, it’s hats off to Chainsaw. A champion bull and Australian icon that will never be forgotten.
