When Dewey's own Judd Mortensen cut short a successful professional bull-riding career two years ago to focus on promoting his sport, he did it for the love of his family.Now Mortensen, 34, wants to give something back to Prescott by bolstering its already solid rodeo tradition.This Saturday from 2-4 p.m., the Prescott Rodeo Grounds will play host to the first-ever "Prescott Bull Bash," which will feature bull riding for up-and-coming pros as well as steer and mutton riding for youngsters.
