20 years ago Ty Murray crossed the $1M mark in career earnings and everyone knew he was a stud. This year a young man from Utah is fixin to earn 3/4 of that in a single season and he refuses to boast!

We all know about Ceaderhacker's fav man, Geo Paul, my fav rider: Terry Don West, and the latest and greatest was supposed to be JB Mauney who made over $7 million riding bulls.
I say yall better pay attention to Stetson Wright because if he stay's healthy he is gonna break every record there ever was even if it was set by Guy Allen of Trevor Brazile

Savell- that is part of what makes JB so great- he is far from humble. While the Brazillians all workout 5 hours a day he says he smokes cigarettes and lifts beer cans to stay in shape! I love that guy

Them Canadians are running away with the saddle bronc. I was really hoping Sage could hold the big lead he had coming into vegas; but it seems like the pressure is getting to him. Gonna be cool to see Jess Pope finally win it all in the bareback, he’s earned it and been dang close the last 2 years. It’s funny it don’t matter how far out Casey Field is coming in, he’s always gonna come alive in Vegas and have a strong showing.

Yeah there is a lot of competition in the saddle bronc riding this year- I wish Lefty wasn't so far out- he is in the zone.
As far as the Jess Pope vs Casey Field rivalry there are more than a couple good rodeo judge who have told me personally that they would have marked a couple rides differently in some later NFR rounds last year and Jess might have won the world as well as the average. This year he isn't taking chances

For those of you who don't pay attention, riding a bull away from you hand is never considered easy but Stetson and Ryder Wright make it look like the easiest darn thing in the world

Frank Newsome is my favorite of all time. Humble guy who always stuck himself in harms way to save the day. I had the Oporto meet Rob Smetts a few years back at the NFR, another super nice and humble guy. We’ve lost a few good ones as well, Jimmy Anderson, Leon Coffee… great men.

Outlaw99- a few years back I took my boy to a Gary Leffew clinic- he was sharing the space with Robs Smets teaching a bull fighting clinc who is about as humble and as faithful to God as a man can be. It was all but comical, Gary would be using really colorful adjectives and adverbs in his loud and carries a long way voice, and you'd look over and notice Smetts down on a knee with all of his students praying. I all but felt sorry for the guy LOL- Gary Leffew can be more than a little bit colorful but most parents of minor children tolerate it because he is teaching our kids how to ride better and get off safer.
Good news too- I saw Leon Coffee flying a barrel up in Lee County this year- he is still out there working. As for Newsome, he still teaches some clinics with Cody Webster- both are basically unparalleled in the world of bull fighting.

Jimmy Anderson and Lesil Harris are 2 more of my past favorites. Also spent lots of time with the Sparks bros, Lloyd Ketchum, Jerry Norton and Don Yates. Don is prolly 55 or a little better but stays in shape and could probably still crack out and do protection work. Jerry is hauling a barrel last I knew. Good dude

The Wright family has a lot of class. It all goes back to the way they are raised. When their dads were riding you always saw grandpa watching from the gate. I wish them boys the best.
