In , he was hired to teach Perry how to be a bull rider for the movie '8 Seconds,' but there was a catch: he had to do it without live bulls. Leffew said, like Luke, Oscar winning actor Cliff Robertson was also a good student. Coop, he picked it up real quick, too," said Leffew. Leffew said, on-set, he'd get about an hour to work with Perry doing horse drills and simulators, and he'd have him watch 20 minutes of Lane Frost's greatest rides every day.
Nicknamed the "Bull Guru" - it's even his license plate - Leffew is known for his holistic training that uses positive thinking, role modeling, and visualization techniques to get the best out of bull riders. Leffew said he felt Perry understood his teachings, and the proof came once filming was over and the actor could ride a bull for real.
The day after the movie wrapped, Leffew says they took Perry to ride a bull in Boerne, Texas, and he nailed it. Leffew said it was almost like Lane's spirit took over and guided Perry. Prior to Perry's first real bull ride, Leffew said he'd been getting pressure from producers and the director, but he knew the actor would perform because he was a hard worker.
Even after filming, even after his initial ride, Perry didn't give up on bull riding. Leffew said their friendship formed during '8 Seconds' carried over for years. When he learned of Perry's passing Monday, he was on a ranch in Ferris, packing for an upcoming bull riding school he's teaching in Arizona.
With Perry being the same age as one of his sons, he said the news hit home. The actor had a huge impact on the sport, Leffew says, more than he will ever have the chance to know, and he's proud to be part of Perry's legacy. Truly a family affair, Leffew's daughter and both his sons are in the rodeo world - one of his sons was a stunt rider for '8 Seconds' and is seen riding as Perry on the movie's poster.
While he hasn't ridden professionally in years, Leffew says he did ride a bull in Wyoming last year. Although he's looking for a place outside of Dallas, right now he still lives on his ranch in the Central Coast of California and travels around the country sharing his craft at his bull riding schools, training riders from around the globe including ones in Central Texas like Sage Kimzy.
