“Every year you learn more of what works for you and what doesn’t work for you. The older I get, I feel like the more prepared I get.” – SAGE KIMZEY LEADERS on the march As the calendar turned to March, every event leader was fast approaching 2019 Wrangler National Finals Rodeo-level qualification. Led by tie-down roper Shad Mayfield, who only had $8,559 separating him from the 15th spot that qualified for the Finals in 2019, six of the eight event leaders as of March 2 were more than halfway to qualifying according to 2019 earnings.
