Dec 5, 2020 – Maple Creek, Sask.
Everybody must have slept in this morning; the draw still isn’t posted on either the PRCA webpage or the Wrangler Network but I’ve rooted around and from what I’ve found, I’m excited.
There’s big-time Canadian exposure in the Bareback riding starting with Orin Larsen, Manitoba’s best bareback rider (sorry Mucky) who will be matched with Frontier Rodeo’s rank bareback horse called 215-Full Baggage. It’ll be awesome!
Richie Champion, who was born in California and has lived in Alaska, Texas and now Montana, and is married to a Canadian Olympian (Paige Lawrence) will tangle with Beutler & Son’s famed 570 Nutrena’s Killer Bee.
Texan Jake Brown has drawn Vern McDonald’s eliminator D39 Make Up Face. Vern’s C5 Rodeo will also mount Kansas bareback rider Jess Pope on 144 Black Eye.
Four-time World Champ Kaycee Feild has drawn Calgary’s X-9 Xplosive Skies and the Stampede’s S-77 Soap Bubbles will test Cajun Winn Ratliff.
