My article and photos on the championship round of rodeo at the National Western Stock Show in Denver, CO have been published on The Fence Post’s website, and should be in their upcoming print edition. It was a great, high-energy championship round with good story lines. I hope you enjoy the story and photos — https://www.thefencepost.com/news/roping-riding-and-roughstock/

I’m still working on a few more stories from the NWSS and will post them when they are published!

Thanks for reading and God bless.

My latest article with photos is published on The Fence Post magazine’s website and will be in their upcoming print edition. It is about the inaugural NFR Open that took place at the 2022 Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo in Colorado Springs. The renamed “NFR Open powered by RAM” used to be called the RAM National Circuit Finals Rodeo and was help for a number of years down in Kissimmee, FL. Moving the circuit championship rodeo to Colorado brought close to the PRCA headquarters and made it more centrally located for the contestants to access. The high-profile, million dollar rodeo made a smooth transition to the 6,500-seat Norris Penrose Event Center and the long-running Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo, with all five performances sold out in 2022.

2021 WPRA champion Jordon Briggs (daughter of barrel racing legend Kristie Peterson) and her popular horse “Rollo” blazed the arena for a 17.17-second time in the sudden death Gold Buckle Round of the Pikes Peak or Bust’s NFR Open on Saturday July 16. Although it was the third fastest time of the entire four-day rodeo, Briggs and Rollo placed second behind Cheyenne Allan’s electric 17.04 time in the championship round.

I am currently swamped with photos and interviews from covering the 2022 Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo’s inaugural NFR Open in Colorado Springs, CO (July 13-16). While I hope to be able to come up for air sometime soon, I thought I would at least get out a pic of how nice it was to cover a high profile rodeo under the lights on Saturday night in front of a sold out crowd. The Norris Penrose Arena in Colorado Springs is a gorgeous setting with views of the Rocky Mountains.

The inaugural NFR Open held at the 2022 Pikes Peak or Bust Rodeo in Colorado Springs was a big success in its relocation of the national circuit finals rodeo format from Florida to Colorado. The million dollar rodeo attracted 200 contestants and sold out crowds to the 6,500-seat Norris Penrose Arena for its Wednesday-Saturday run of five rodeo performances, including the high stakes Gold Buckle Round under the lights on Saturday night to determine the winners who would be crowned as circuit national champions.
