Congratulations to Robert and Billy Etbauer, three-time world champion Frank Schneider, three-time Bareback Horse of the Year Khadafy Skoal, five-time National Finals Rodeo barrelman[...]

If you’ve never been to the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo and want to see what it looks like, all you have to do is make your way to Oklahoma City next week for the Ram National Circuit Finals Rodeo. ProRodeo’s National Championship is one of the most prestigious events in the sport, and there’s good[...]

It looks as though the leaderboard changed a little Tuesday night in Austin, Texas. It was definitely a case in the three roughstock events. Ty Pozzobon of Merritt, B.C., posted the highest score of the rodeo so far, an 89-point ride in bull riding. I can’t publish the animal that helped the cowboys to their[...]

The Ram National Circuit Finals Rodeo features some of the best cowboys and cowgirls from every part of the United States. The personnel represents North America, too. Announcer Greg Simas is from Pennsylvania and works many rodeos in the Northeast, while his counterpart, Wayne Brooks, lives in Lampasas, Texas. Brooks is a two-time Professional Rodeo[...]

I love being the bearer of good news. Two Decembers ago, I got to tell Sherry Cervi she’d clinched her third world title after the ninth round of the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. Today I got to tell Carlee Pierce that she was the No. 1 cowgirl in the WPRA ProRodeo Standings for the first[...]

I have to be honest: I liked the chances of PRCA cowboys Rope Myers and Nathan Klassen in the reality series “Full Metal Jousting.” So far, they haven’t disappointed. Myers dominated his match, which aired last week. Klassen, who has been a friend for a number of years, did the same thing in the episode[...]

Cody Graham might’ve had one of the best stories of all the $50,000 winners from this past weekend’s finale at RodeoHouston. You see, Graham’s partner was unable to compete at the event, so he was paired with veteran Monty Petska. The two had never roped together before their first round inside Reliant Stadium. Graham told[...]

The 20 rodeo performances of RodeoHouston concluded Sunday afternoon, and although I didn’t get to watch the happenings inside Reliant Stadium, I’m still impressed. Today’s winners in barrel racing, bareback riding, saddle bronc riding and bull riding all pocketed an additional $25,000. Only one of the 2012 RodeoHouston Super Series champs won Sunday, too:  Barrel[...]

When Lindsay Sears goes to the bank, she tends to make a big deposit. Sears and her great horse, Martha, won RodeoHouston with a 14.14-second run to edge Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifier Carlee Pierce by one-hundredth of a second to win the $50,000 barrel racing prize in the Super Series Championship on Sunday afternoon.[...]
