Earl is known in rodeo history as the inventor and maker of the first hornless rodeo saddle in 1922 and the first one-handed bareback rigging in 1924, both of which are now used world-wide in all professional rodeos. Earl and his brothers, known as the "Bronc Bustin' Bascom Boys" were rodeo pioneers who designed and constructed history's first side-delivery rodeo chute in 1916, produced Mississippi's first rodeo in 1935, which was history's first outdoor, night rodeo held under electric lights.

An internationally known artist and sculptor, he was the first cowboy elected a Fellow of the prestigious Royal Society of Arts, in London, England. Listed in Who's Who in American Art, Who's Who in Western Writers of America, Who's Who in the West, Who's Who in California, Who's Who in America and Who's Who in the World, he was declared Rodeo's First Collegiate Cowboy, being the first man to finance his way through college, starting in 1933, solely by riding in rodeos. 

Roy Rogers, TV and movie star, said of Earl in 1968, "Earl Bascom is a walking history book. His knowledge of the Old West was acquired the old-fashioned way - he was born and raised in it."

In life he followed faithfully his own philosophy, "If you want to be a champion bullrider, you have to ride the toughest bull." Earl Bascom rode into that big arena in the sky, a champion, on August 28, 1995.

In a lifetime that spanned the 20th century, Earl Bascom experienced first-hand the dramatic changes of life and lifestyle for the working cowboy. From his birth in 1906 to his last days in 1995, Earl lived the life of the open-range era - a time when there were no fences and great herds of cattle roamed free. A time when it was possible to be a bronc buster, cowpuncher, trail driver, blacksmith, freighter, stagecoach driver, miner, trapper, wild horse chaser, rodeo champion, rancher, dude wrangler and Hollywood movie actor - all in the span of one lifetime. A lifetime so steeped in western traditions that few others could even imagine.

Fortunately for those of us who cherish our western heritage, Earl preserved many of his experiences in sculpture. His artistic abilities came naturally enough. Earl's father, Deputy Sheriff John W. Bascom, was a cousin to two great master artists of the Old West: Frederic S. Remington and Charles M. Russell. Just as his cousins' art told the story of the western frontier during the late 1800's and early 1900's, Earl's sculptures finish the story with hundreds of original works. Most of us can only dream of owning an original Remington and/or Russell piece of art. However, thanks to Bascom Productions, you can be a first-time owner of an original limited edition Bascom sculpture.

Earl Bascom, 1906 年出生於猶他州的一個小木屋，在加拿大的一個牧場長大，他是一名副警長的兒子，也是一位摩門教先驅的孫子，是藝術家弗雷德里克·雷明頓和查爾斯·羅素的堂兄。他作為馬鞍匠、專業野馬破壞者、牛仔打手、越野車手、鐵匠、貨輪、驛馬車司機、礦工、捕獵者、狼獵人、野馬追逐者、牛仔競技冠軍、牧牛人、牧馬人和好萊塢電影，擁有廣泛的西方經驗羅伊·羅傑斯的演員。
巴斯科姆厄爾 (Earl Bascom)是一位才華橫溢的全能牛仔競技冠軍，他的名字被收納入26個名人堂，從 1916 年到 1940 年，巴斯科姆厄爾 (Earl Bascom) 牛仔競技表演了 25 年，獲得國際讚譽，在北美錦標賽中獲得第二名，創造了新的世界紀錄，並在世界錦標賽。在他的牛仔競技生涯中，厄爾參加了無鞍騎馬、騎馬和騎牛、騎馬、馴馬摔跤、馴馬裝飾、野牛擠奶、野馬賽馬等項目，並擔任過牛仔競技製作人和股票交易員、牛仔競技播音員、挑選-起來的人、 哈澤爾、 牛仔競技小丑和鬥牛士。
厄爾在牛仔競技史上被稱為 1922 年第一個無角牛仔馬鞍的發明者和製造者，以及 1924 年第一個單手無鞍索具，這兩者現在在世界範圍內的所有專業牛仔競技中使用。 Earl 和他的兄弟，被稱為“Bronc Bustin' Bascom Boys”，是牛仔競技先驅，他們於 1916 年設計並建造了歷史上第一個側向交付牛仔競技滑道，並於 1935 年生產了密西西比州的第一個牛仔競技表演，這是歷史上第一個在電動下舉行的戶外夜間牛仔競技表演燈。
作為國際知名的藝術家和雕塑家，他是第一位當選為英國倫敦著名的皇家藝術學會院士的牛仔。被列入美國藝術名人錄、美國西方作家名人錄、西方名人錄、加利福尼亞名人錄、美國名人錄和世界名人錄，他被宣佈為牛仔競技會的第一個大學牛仔，成為第一人從 1933 年開始，僅靠騎馬來資助他上大學。 （見榮譽。）
電視和電影明星羅伊·羅傑斯 (Roy Rogers) 在 1968 年談到伯爵時說：“巴斯科姆伯爵是一本行走的歷史書。他對舊西部的了解是通過老式的方式獲得的——他在那裡出生和長大。”

在生活中，他忠實地遵循著自己的理念：“要想成為冠軍鬥牛士，就必須騎最堅韌的公牛。” 1995 年 8 月 28 日，伯爵巴斯科姆 (Earl Bascom) 騎馬進入了天空中的那個大競技場，成為了冠軍。
在跨越 20 世紀的一生中，Earl Bascom 親眼目睹了職業牛仔的生活和生活方式的巨大變化。從他 1906 年的出生到 1995 年的最後幾天，厄爾過著開放式牧場時代的生活——那個時代沒有圍欄，大群牛在自由漫步。一個有可能成為野馬破壞者、牛仔騎手、越野車手、鐵匠、貨輪、驛馬車司機、礦工、捕手、野馬追逐者、牛仔競技冠軍、牧場主、牧馬人和好萊塢電影演員的時代——所有這些都在一個人的跨度之內壽命。一生沉浸在西方傳統中，幾乎沒有人能想像。
對於我們這些珍惜西方遺產的人來說幸運的是，厄爾保留了他在雕塑方面的許多經驗。他的藝術能力自然就來了。厄爾的父親約翰·W·巴斯科姆副警長是舊西部兩位偉大的藝術家大師弗雷德里克·S·雷明頓和查爾斯·M·羅素的堂兄。正如他堂兄弟的藝術講述了 1800 年代末和 1900 年代初西部邊境的故事一樣，伯爵的雕塑以數百件原創作品結束了這個故事。我們大多數人只能夢想擁有一件原創的雷明頓和/或羅素藝術品。然而，多虧了 Bascom Productions，您可以成為原始限量版 Bascom 雕塑的第一次擁有者。有興趣收藏 Earl Bascomㄉㄜ˙
