There is no other name more synonymous with the sport of ProRodeo than Trevor Brazile. Winner of a record breaking 26 world champion titles in four separate categories — Team Roping, Tie Down Roping, Steer Roping and All Around — the Texas cowboy seemed to forever be at the top of the game. Inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame on July 16, 2022, I had the opportunity to have a conversation with Trevor behind the scenes before he received his buckle and statue and before he gave his acceptance speech. The Q&A and some photography of mine of Trevor Brazile in action and also at the ProRodeo Hall of Fame induction ceremony have been published by The Fence Post magazine.

Trevor Brazile was 10 years into his incredible rodeo career and already piling up world titles and big wins, including this Tie Down Roping winning effort during the short go of the historic 100th National Western Stock Show in 2006. Image by Lincoln Rogers – All rights reserved.

My interview with ProRodeo Hall of Fame bareback cowboy Bobby Mote has been published. Mote was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame on July 16, 2022. He is a 4-time PRCA world champion bareback cowboy and a two-time PRCA reserve world champ who qualified for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (NFR) 15 years in a row. I was able to speak with him before his acceptance speech at his induction ceremony. Click the link or the image to get to the published interview. https://www.thefencepost.com/news/mote-in-the-prorodeo-hall-of-fame-in-2022/

4-time PRCA world champion bareback competitor Bobby Mote made a lot of big rides in his career, including this 89-point effort aboard the famous bucking horse Virgil to come from behind and take the title at the 2015 National Western Stock Show in Denver, CO.

It was a privilege to be able to speak with Bobby Mote on the day of his induction into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame. I hope you enjoy his answers to my questions as much as I did.

Killer Ride Sets A New Arena Record!

Saddle bronc cowboy Hardy Braden rode one of the most famous bucking horses in the business — Killer Bee — for a new arena record at the 100th Greeley Stampede in Greeley, CO during the final round of rodeo action on June 30, 2022. The 89.50-point score bested the previous record of 88 points set by Wade Sundell in 2018 and tied by Ryder Wright in 2019. “It is quite something, actually,” said Braden when told his score set a new record. “I am kind of at a loss.  It was the 100th anniversary, what better way to do that then get an arena record and win the 100th.”

Oklahoma saddle bronc rider Hardy Braden drew what was announced as “the most famous bucking horse of all time” in Killer Bee from Beutler and Son Rodeo Company, and the duo put on a big show that culminated in an arena record 89.50 points and the overall title at the 100th Greeley Stampede (June 30, 2022).

Pretty cool moment to see in person and nice to be able to talk to the humble cowboy about it. A new article about it will be published soon in The Fence Post magazine with more conversation and more photos.

Champs… Past & Present

There are a lot of reasons I enjoy photographing the Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo in Elizabeth, CO. 1 – It is a small town rodeo and I appreciate that vibe, having grown up in a small town in the Midwest, surrounded by lakes, rural farmland and orchards. 2 – The people that put on the rodeo and all the volunteers that make it work are incredible. Quality folks all the way to their core. And because good things come in threes… 3 – World champions past and present will make appearances at the small rodeo, which lets you know what a quality run rodeo it really is.

Along those lines, I photographed the Friday night Extreme Bulls competition and was blessed to be able to talk afterwards with 7-time PRCA world champion bull rider Sage Kimzey AND ProRodeo Hall of Fame bull rider Charlie Sampson. To top it off? They are both great guys.

ProRodeo Hall of Fame bull rider Charlie Sampson (left) poses with 7-time PRCA world champion bull rider Sage Kimzey (right) behind the chutes of the award winning Elizabeth Stampede Rodeo in Elizabeth, CO following the Extreme Bulls competition on Friday June 03, 2022. Kimzey treated the sold-out crowd to a wild ride aboard a young athletic bull, but was unsuccessful in notching a qualified ride.

I love what I do!

Newt Novich Ties Cheyenne Steer Wrestling Record

Montana steer wrestler Newt Novich saved his best effort for last in the championship round of rodeo at the 2021 Cheyenne Frontier Days (CFD) in Cheyenne, Wyoming. With Cheyenne employing the tournament style format since 2019, where the winner of the championship round also wins the CFD title, the final round sees a lot of “go big or go home” efforts from the contestants.

Newt Novich went big.

Montana Steer Wrestler Newt Novich tied a Cheyenne Frontier Days Rodeo arena record with this 5.1-second time in Sunday’s (August 01) championship round to win the steer wrestling buckle and a big check.

Catching up to the steer in just over 2 seconds, Novich completed his effort in a time of 5.1 seconds, which tied the arena record at the historic rodeo.

“This is huge,” said Novich when collecting his trophy buckle and saddle in front of the packed stands. “This is an honor to be a part of it. Man, this couldn’t have worked out any better.”

Asked what he wanted to say to any fellow Montana residents who might be watching the rodeo on television that day, Novich had an enthusiastic answer.

“Hey, just glad to represent you guys in Montana,” he stated with a grin. “We are bringing it back to Montana.”

Go big or go home? Novich was happy to do both, and is carrying a coveted Cheyenne buckle on his return trip to Montana.

Happy Flag Day fellow Americans!

The championship round of rodeo at the 2014 National Western Stock Show in Denver, Colorado was full of action and enthusiastic fans in the stands (a near capacity crowd of 8,279).  Here is my story and some photos from the event that have been published in The Fence Post magazine.
