Fun Facts about Braden: It only took 16 seconds for Braden to secure his first trip to Las Vegas to compete at the WNFR. It hadn’t been the season he had hoped for, but the persistent cowboy kept driving, entering, and hoping for a breakthrough. After a 25th place finish in 2020, he had the confidence that he could ride with the best. Then he got off to a slow start in the winter and spring, won the Cody Stampede in Wyoming over Cowboy Christmas and had the tools to keep going. He was 20th in the world when he went to Ellensburg, Washington. He dominated the Xtreme Bulls event there and won nearly $40,000. He has a degree in petroleum technology from Panola College in Carthage, Texas and is very grateful that he doesn’t have to put it to use for a while.
