Watch: ‘Casper College Cowboy’ Makes a Near-Perfect Run at $603,000 Worth Rodeo

America’s most prestigious rodeo event witnessed an exhilarating performance by a rookie saddle bronc rider. One of the toughest and most captivating rodeo events is saddle bronc. It calls for riders to show off their command, endurance, and stability by staying aboard a wild horse for eight seconds. All of this happens while the rider holds one hand firmly on the rein of the horse and elevates the other hand in the air. America’s oldest-running rodeo event marked its 127th year while 29th July held its 7th day this season.

It was amazing to see the names of up-and-coming cowboys on the list lined up to win the competition. Further, the race was concluded with a spectacular win by a talented rodeo cowboy. Considering the level of competition, the ending was truly a work of art.

The rodeo event witnessed a spectacular performance

At the Cheyenne Frontier Days taking place in Wyoming, Quinten Taylor won the Day 7 Saddle Bronc event. He rode the horse named All or Nothin scoring 90 points. The event’s speakers can be heard beaming with excitement as they reveal his live appearance in a report by Everything Cowboy. Taylor impressed both the judges and the crowd with his ability and grace.

Taylor displayed his control over the bucking horse while maintaining the ideal balance of control, as the audience erupted in cheers. He outperformed his rivals and took the first position on the list with his incredible equestrian skills. Just below his name stood Deep South PRCA Rodeo winner Ryder Sanford with 86 points. Allen Boore finished third with 84 points previously finishing fifth in the competition in 2020.

Saddle Bronc awarded Taylor $3,010 from the $603,000 total value of the Cheyenne days’ purses. While the community may not be quite familiar with the Cowboy’s name, the last couple of years have been quite eventful for the blooming sportsman. Around the same time last year, his name first emerged from a collegiate event showing promise in the sport. Well, the rest already seems like a story in the making.

Story of the rodeo star boy

It all began last year when Taylor found his second home in Frontier Days playing as Casper College’s Thunderbirds team. With a friend’s advice and a discussion with T-Birds head coach Jhett Johnson and his assistant coach Sandy Bob Forbes, he decided to attend Casper College to improve his cowboy skills. It all worked out just fine for the young champ who improved his Q’s abilities. Taking note of his control over the horse he decided to give the rookie-of-the-year win a chance. He also aimed for a debut National Championships in Las Vegas.
