For the third time in his career, four-time world champion Rocky Patterson has won at least a share of the steer roping title at the Guymon Pioneer Days Rodeo.

Back in his old stomping grounds near Oklahoma Panhandle State University, Patterson tied Tony Reina for the four-run aggregate championship by stopping he clock in a cumulative time of 49.6 seconds. Both men earned $3,637 for winning the average.

But Patterson earned more money by placing in three go-rounds. In all, he pocketed just shy of $5,800 in No Man’s Land money. With that, he will add a third Pioneer Days trophy belt to his wardrobe, which matches quite well with stash of gold buckles.
