41-year-old Ardie Maier of South Dakota arrived at the 2022 Elizabeth Stampede and promptly earned second place overall with an electric 82-point ride aboard a Summit Pro Rodeo Company bull named Jam Session during Sunday afternoon’s “Red, White and Blue Rodeo” in Elizabeth, CO.

41-year-old bull rider Ardie Maier of South Dakota got the Sunday crowd cheering as he notched a successful 82-point score aboard Jam Session to briefly take the lead in the standings during the 2022 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo. Maier was the runner-up in the PRCA bull riding at the Elizabeth, CO rodeo and earned $1,716.00 for his 8-second ride.

That’s right. You read it correctly. 41 years old and still riding bulls. And doing it successfully! John Wayne famously said “Courage is being scared to death, but saddling up anyway,” but there is no way. I can’t even imagine getting on a bull after the age of 40. But he could. Chase your dreams, people!!!

Great rodeo to cover for publication! Fast horses, big action and awesome weather this past weekend in Elizabeth, CO. I am neck deep in working on photos and interviews, but will post items from the recent 2022 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo when I get a chance. Here is one image I have ready. Experienced Colorado barrel racer Kelly Yates won the barrel racing title in 2022.

Veteran Colorado barrel racer Kelly Yates powered around the first barrel and showed the sold-out Sunday afternoon crowd how it was done as she absolutely blazed through the pattern in a time of 16.08 seconds on her way to picking up the 2022 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo’s barrel racing title. The Elizabeth Stampede regularly has NFR competitors and former WPRA world champions show up to compete in the award winning rodeo, so a win in Elizabeth comes against stiff competition.

Animal Athletes at the ’22 NWSS Rodeo

I love watching great animal athletes in action, especially horses. The championship round of rodeo at the 2022 National Western Stock Show had the best bucking stock in the sport on hand to compete against the top cowboys. The award winning “Lunatic From Hell” (out of the great “Lunatic Fringe”) showed why he is one of the best bucking horses in the sport as he not only bucked off the cowboy, but also managed to avoid stepping on the competitor while continuing to buck and show off for the big crowd on Sunday January 23, 2022.

The championship round of rodeo at the National Western Stock show also features the best bucking stock in the sport, as Creighton Curley found out the hard way when Burch Rodeo’s award winning Lunatic From Hell sent the cowboy tumbling and then stepped around him while showing off for the big crowd.

The Sunday championship round (August 01, 2021) at the 2021 Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo was a great show. There will be more images coming in the future.

Happy Flag Day fellow Americans!

The Fence Post magazine has published my full article and photos on their website (and soon in their print edition) about the upcoming 2021 Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo (June 03-06) in Elizabeth, CO.

Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo president Traci McClain took the time to sit down and talk with me during one of their volunteer work days at the rodeo grounds. It was rough for them to have to cancel 2020’s rodeo, but they are really looking forward to starting it up again this year.

Click here to go to the article on The Fence Post’s website

Former PRCA world champion Kelly Timberman not only won the 2017 bareback competition with this 87.5-point ride aboard Summit Pro Rodeo’s “Revolving Door;” he also shattered the Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo’s previous arena record of 86 points.
