He is 5 feet 10 inches tall and is a left-handed rider. Mauney was born in Charlotte, North Carolina. He is of French descent on his father's side. He began bull riding at the early age of 3.

1[on having broken the record for managing to stay the longest of forty riders on a bull called 'Bushwacker' ] He's got brains. He's smart. You can watch twenty videos of that bull, and he'll never do the same thing twice. He's big. He's strong. He's got the power. And when the gate opens you can't really set a game plan for him. He'll feel you. Say you're sitting to the left a little bit - he'll hit and go right.
2In my eyes it's more the try and the heart than the talent. You get on and tie your hand in there and don't quit until they stomp you loose. When I was younger, I had to work at it a little harder than some of the people did. I didn't ride pretty. I whipped around and made moves that I didn't really need to, but the one thing I did have was try. I never quit until my head hit the ground.
