Repetition is the Sincerest Form of Flattery
In rodeo, some things never seem to change. The dominance of two horses, in particular, is becoming a constant in the team roping.

Down to the NFR Wire
Because I live in the boonies, it's typical for me to rise and shine at 3 a.m. to head for the airport in the dark and catch an early morning flight. Each fall, I also fly out of Omaha--home of the ProRodeo Tour's Justin Boots Championships--before the sun comes up on Sunday morning to head... | read »

Stran Smith with Spin to Win Rodeo Magazine
As I sit down to write this story the day after the Justin Boots Championships in Omaha, I have no idea whether defending World Champion Tie-Down Roper Stran Smith will even qualify for this year's Wrangler National Finals Rodeo.

OmaHaul
David Key is a man of deep faith. He must be. Yet in the wake of his win at the Justin Boots Championships of the Wrangler Million Dollar Tour in Omaha, he couldn't fully explain it. Last year, Key missed the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo by two spots for the first time in nine years.... | read »
