Bull rider J.W. Harris, a four-time PRCA world champion, is hoping to make it to the Wrangler National Finals Comeback

“As of right now, it’ll be my last year, so we’ll try to go out on a good note. My body is getting tired of it. I still have the want to ride and I still love it just as much as when I first started. But it’s hard to get the motor running to get on, and I have two kids at home busy with sports and every dadgum thing you can think of. It’s hard to leave home.” – J.W. HARRIS
