WRANGLER NFR RECORDS AND HISTORY
RAM TOP GUN AWARD
To add to the excitement level of a world championship event, every year RAM rewards the contestant who earns the most money at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo.
The RAM Top Gun Award goes to the one athlete who wins the most money in any single event at the Wrangler NFR. It’s the only title that pits contestants in multiple events against each other. The winner receives a voucher toward the purchase of a RAM vehicle, a special Montana Silversmiths custom buckle and a RAM Top Gun-branded gun from Commemorative Firearms.
