Fun Facts about Lefty: He more than doubled his career earnings last year after finishing as the reserve champion. This year started off a little slow, but picked up in the spring and summer, especially in his home state of California. He got the win at Livermore adding over $3,000 to his checking account. Then in July, he got the buckle that is one of the most sought-after in the PRCA at California Rodeo Salinas. Both of those rodeos are less than three hours from his home in Visalia and the common denominator was having his family there. Making memories on the rodeo trail is exactly what he did with his grandfather, John Holman behind the bucking chutes with Lefty, reminding him to just go do what he does. Last year was also life-changing outside of the arena. He married his best friend Hailey. With his 14th-place start at this year’s NFR, the only way Lefty is looking is up and part of that will be looking up in the stands for his family that will be in Las Vegas with him.
