DIRECTOR’S CUT SCOTT KANIEWSKI

Crunching the numbers for season’s final month W ith the certainty that the 2020Wrangler National Finals Rodeo is going to happen, everyone can take a deep breath and spend the final month glued to the PRCA | RAMWorld Standings. The race to the Finals is always fun to watch over the final With as many team ropers as there are going in the PRCA, there’s plenty of cash to go around. That means that No. 20 Kaleb Driggers isn’t out of it despite being about $9,000 behind No. 15 Matt Sherwood. Coleman Proctor (No. 19), Cory Kidd V (18), Brenten Hall (17) and Clay Ullery (16) also can set their sights higher. With $37,832 earned, Hall can quickly go from 17th to top 10, where Kolton Schmidt is sitting with $44,115.

30 days of the regular season. Fun if you’re a fan – not necessarily if you’re a competitor on the bubble for the last of 15 spots in an event. And this year’s competition is going to be among the tightest we’ve seen in ProRodeo history. With the COVID-19 pandemic shutting down rodeo for two months and limiting the number of rodeos held the last four months, a number of spots remain up for grabs. In bareback riding, steer wrestling, team roping heeling and bull riding, the 15th and 16th spots are separated by less than $1,000, including heeler Trey Yates who trails Chase Tryan by $6. While the top 10 bareback riders have broken $50,000 this season, there’s a separation of about $8,000 between 13th and 18th. With $41,815 earned, Ty Breuer has to feel pretty comfortable in 11th place. But No. 12 Jake Brown is $6,000 ahead of No. 17 Taylor Broussard. And don’t forget the Yellowstone Riggin Rally on Sept. 7 is offering a $30,000 payout to bareback riders, including $10,000 to the winner. That kind of money keeps No. 23 Paden Hurst – with $22,865 – in the mix. Jump to steer wrestling and the top nine should feel safe. But No. 10 Bridger Anderson, with $35,203 earned, might be glancing over his shoulder. No. 19 Ty Erickson, the defending world champion, is barely more than $8,000 behind Anderson, but less than $5,000 behind No. 15 Clayton Hass.

Heeling is similar. Just $7,084 separates No. 14WesleyThorp – the defending world champion – fromNo. 19 Ryan Motes. The top seven saddle bronc riders have all made more than $50,000, the top five more than $70,000. But Dawson Hay and Taos Muncy, 14th and 15th, respectively, are only a few thousand dollars away from being on the outside looking in. Seven guys are battling for two spots. Tie-down roping has at least 10 cowboys battling for five spots. Tyler Milligan finished August in 10th with $44,728. At 20th, Blane Cox is about $10,000 behind, but $6,000 away from cracking the Top 15. And then there’s bull riding. With ground money in play and the Xtreme Bull Riding Tour Finale in Nephi, Utah, with a total payout of $60,000, a $10,000 deficit is erasable. That would mean Jeston Mead in 24th in the standings with $33,411 is in the mix. Rugar Piva is 15th with $43,795. FromNo. 11 Ty Wallace to No. 18 Dallee Mason, a difference of about $6,000 separates seven bull riders battling for five spots. The heartbreak is going to happen. (Kind of fits with 2020, doesn’t it?) But there will be plenty of joy too, for each event’s lucky 15 that end up dancing for 10 days at theWrangler NFR.

COWBOY GRILLE WITH AMBER BAILLIE

How are you feeling about the season? Riley: It started off as a normal year and then the coronavirus happened, and everything shut down for a while. The first rodeo I went to after that was Woodward, Okla., and then Coleman, Texas. What are your goals? Riley: My goal this year is to finish off the season strong, win rookie of the year and make it into all the winter rodeos for next year. Then, eventually, to make the NFR. How did you get into steer wrestling? Riley: My dad trained steer wrestling horses and has steer wrestled his whole life. He still does. I’ve been around it, traveling with him, Scott Kleeman and Cameron Morman since I was a kid. I always watched them compete, and now I get to. What’s been your favorite rodeo you’ve competed at? Riley: Prescott, Ariz., was a fun one, a little bit different than everywhere else we’ve been. Baker, Mont., treated me well, I’ve always done well in that arena. It’s close to home, my grandparents live there, and I have a lot of connections there. It’s a fast setup and fits me well. How would you like to improve in your event? North Dakota cowboy Riley Reiss has an appetite for success in and out of the rodeo arena. A sophomore at Laramie County (Wyo.) Community College, Reiss is majoring in business management and entrepreneurship, while also competing on the rodeo team and working his way up in ProRodeo. As of Sept. 1, the 20-year-old was No. 1 in the steer wrestling PRCA | Resistol Rookie Standings.

RILEY REISS

Riley: I usually do better at one-headers than two-headers. I think I just need to slow down and make a solid run on my first run (at the two-headers) so that I can come back and win money in the average, not just go for rounds. What’s been your biggest rodeo achievement? Riley: This year in Grand Island, Neb., I took second in the long round, first in the progressive round and then won the average. That’s the biggest paycheck ($2,998) I’ve won. In Baker, Mont., my time was 3.2 seconds and I tied the arena record, so that was cool. How do you prepare for a run? Riley: I like to get saddled fairly early, ride my horses around and make sure they’re feeling good. I take the last five to 10 minutes before we go to stretch out and focus on what start I’m going to take. Then I get back in the box and let muscle memory take over. Who do you look up to in rodeo? Riley: Cameron Morman as far as steer wrestling. He’s very fundamental about it, and I’ve been able to practice with him a lot. Attitude-wise, my rodeo coach Dean Finnerty. He’s been through a lot, and you’ll never see him without a smile on his face. He has the best attitude of anyone I’ve ever been around. What is your most prized possession? Riley: In high school I won a Levi Wisness steer wrestling buckle. I won it two times for winning the average at our state finals, and it means a lot. Levi was a bulldogger that grew up not too far from our house and died way too young. The buckles have their own case and sit above my bed at home. What’s your favorite way to relax? Riley: I hunt a lot. To relax, I like to go hang out in the hills and look for deer and hunt deer. I also snowmobile a lot. Who knows you best in life? Riley: Either my mom or roommate, Jhet Murphy. I met him my junior year at the high school finals. We became friends right away and have been close ever since. He’s who I’m traveling with this fall. What’s your favorite TV show? Riley: MeatEater by Steven Rinella. He’s got a series out that shows a different side of hunting, the conservation side of it. It’s on Netflix. What’s your favorite dessert? Riley: Apple pie.

Who would you rather have dinner with, John Wayne or Clint Eastwood? Riley: John Wayne. He’s a real, old-school cowboy, I’ve watched all his movies. What’s the best advice you’ve received? Riley: To slow down and finish big. Last summer I had trouble with being in a hurry, not finishing very well and not making very good runs on steers. Scott Kleeman is the one that told me that. Slow down, do your job and finish them. What do you love most about the rodeo lifestyle? Riley: Being able to travel around, be with your buddies all the time and see new things. There’s a lot of down time with rodeo too, so we get to see different parts of the U.S., and it’s kind of a big vacation.

SHORT ROUND

Survey: Rodeo fans want to attend NFR Rodeo Ready

T he Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association conducted a survey, and the results could not be clearer: ProRodeo fans want to attend the 2020 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, regardless of location. In early August, the PRCA and Las Vegas Events surveyed fans nationwide. With more than 40,000 responses, nearly 80% said they would travel to attend the NFR. Given an array of options, most fans prefer to see the event somewhere in Texas. “The fans have spoken, and we hear them,” PRCA CEO George Taylor said. “Our fans are imperative to the National Finals Rodeo. The PRCA is committed to the NFR, our sponsors, our members and our fans.” The PRCA is asking rodeo fans to sign up at prorodeo.com/2020-nfr- ticket-drawing to get early news on the announcement of a location for the 2020 Wrangler NFR. Fans will get advance notice of the 2020 venue plus a chance to win a

pair of tickets to one performance of the Wrangler NFR. When it came to other events critical to the 2020 NFR, the most important event for fans was Cowboy Christmas, at nearly 90%, followed by the Wrangler NFR Nightly Buckle Presentation. The PRCA is committed to finding a location to host the NFR and to provide ample space for the additional events that come with the PRCA’s marquee event. “We’re watching other professional sports struggle,” Taylor said. “This has been a tough year for all of us. Our approach to getting through this is to listen to our fans and to stay connected to the character of the cowboys who are at the center of rodeo.” In this year of the COVID-19 pandemic, ProRodeo fans indicated that hand sanitizing stations were the most important aspect of maintaining a clean arena. Enhanced sanitizing was also high

on the priority list, while masks being offered, temperature checks, maintaining social distancing, cashless processes and queuing lines were deemed less important. Las Vegas isn’t a feasible option to host the NFR this year, so the PRCA has been exploring other options. The PRCA is committed to recreating the experience of the NFR in Las Vegas, wherever it lands, and a decision on the 2020 venue will be announced by Sept. 30.

Gold Buckle Beer named Tour Finale title sponsor
