Fun Facts about Andrew: He is closing in on $1 million in career earnings and the bulk of that has been won heading for his best friend and brother-in-law, Buddy Hawkins III. He qualified for his first NFR roping with Buddy in 2020 and they are still hitting the rodeo trail. In 2021, they were the most consistent team at the NFR and won the rodeo’s championship. Their wives are sisters from Wyoming. Andrew is one of eight children that were homeschooled by parents who were teachers. They are a family that relies on faith and they turn their thoughts into prayers and county their blessings constantly.
