Jody
started riding bulls when he was in school,
because a friend of his rode and had a drivers license, so Jody went
with him and started riding. Jody’s family is very supportive of
his career, if you watch close you can catch his Dad or twin brother
pulling ropes for him from time to time.
Jody’s
advice to others is Matthew 7:8 "For everyone who asks receives; he
who seeks finds; and to him that knocks, the door will be opened."
Jeremiah 29:11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares
the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give
you hope and a future.” Isaiah 41:10 "So do not fear, for I am with
you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you
and help you; I will uphold you with righteous right hand."
Jody's father is Terry Newberry and
mother is June Newberry. He has three siblings a twin brother, Cody, and two older sisters.
His goal is to make enough money to start his own business. Jody's
