Fallon Taylor is an American professional rodeo cowgirl who specializes in barrel racing.

Josey also trained Taylor's mare, Flowers and Money, who was the dam of Babyflo.

At age 14, Taylor won RodeoHouston, the largest rodeo in the world, and banked a check for $15,000.

She acted in roles in High Hopes, The Loop, Four Kings[4] and as Charlie Sheen's girlfriend on Two and A Half Men.

"I ride ten times better now than the first finals in the 90s, I have a lot more awareness of my body and my horse.

"[1][7] After her recovery and with her husband's support, Taylor was determined to return to competitive rodeo at the age of 31.

She choose the offspring of the horse who took her to the NFR four times in her teenage years, BabyFlo, who was a young mare.

However, though Babyflo surprised Taylor with her potential, she immediately told her family this was the horse who would take her back to the top.

Babyflo performed so well that she was named PRCA/WPRA AQHA Reserve Barrel Racing Horse of the Year.

[6] Taylor finished the year ranked 11th in the World Standings with $116,785 in season earnings.

Taylor and Babyflo managed to run it in at 16.62 seconds to take the lead and win the event.

[3] In 2014, Taylor, her husband, and two of her friends started up clothing line Ranch Dress'n.

Ranch Dress'n also sells athletic wear, caps, outerwear, and youth clothing.
