PRCA Weekly Recap: Nov. 2-8
The first week of November saw the Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping’s $425,000 go toward the 2020 PRCA | RAM World Standings, while everything else held Nov. 2-8 went toward the 2021 world standings. With that in mind, the 2020 season jumped to $18,129,644 with the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo still to come.
Meanwhile, the 2021 season total is up to $1,526,655.
No matter which season last week’s competitions counted toward, ProRodeo athletes brought their best knowing that world titles, circuit titles and future qualifications were on the line. Although the prize money differs from one competition to the next, the judging remains consistent.
