WEATHER GUARD World Standings Watch: Jumpin’ June, Let the Leap Frog Festivities Begin!
As discussed last week bareback, tie-down and team roping could and did jump around a lil with the race so tight and everyone crisscrossing the country in between UT WCC and to FL for another Kissimmee event. Orin Larsen slips past Jake Brown who we now won’t see til’ crunch time, hopefully Pendleton? The back and forth in TR continues with Russell Cardoza taking the lead in now in the heeling side, and no-one on either side is safe over the next few weeks and months to come. The one race that continues to tighten even more is saddle bronc as Jacobs crosses the 1 million $ mark and the 21 yr. old CoBurn Bradshaw moves within $1100 of the #1 spot in the WEATHER GUARD PRCA World Standings. He finished off 2015 with his first trip to the WNFR and the Resistol Rookie title, go a little deeper here and watch this ride from Salinas last year.
CoBurn has fell right into the Wright family ways after marrying in and assuming the role of spoiler in a little family game of rock, paper, scissors which is really fun to watch the gang of rough and tumble bronco busters as they rib and cheer for each other at the same time. I’m still looking for Spencer to jump into the mix and the top 25. It’s interesting to see that UT was able to connect 4 in the standings and Canada just needs Chuck Schmidt to move North slip one spot to have 6 guys in a row in the top 15
One of the things I’ve learned over the years is when the Wildest, Richest Rodeo In The West starts in Reno its time to really “WATCH” the WEATHER GUARD PRCA World Standings and get fired up for the upcoming Summer Run!
