A docuseries featuring tie-down roper Shane Hanchey’s path to his 15th straight NFR will air on weekly on The Cowboy Channel as part of ProRodeo Tonight.
The series will also follow Hanchey at the 2024 National Finals.
Hanchey has been working with producer Will Stout to put together the series, which Hanchey says will be exciting for rodeo fans.
“I’ve been a fan of Will’s since he was the LSU Tigers in 2019 and for him to put his hands on any of this in the rodeo world, it’s going to be gold,” Hanchey said. “We’re excited about this series coming up.”
Stout got his first taste of the rodeo lifestyle and says he has grown to appreciate what these athletes go through, something he is sure to show in the series.
“I think people are going to like the grind of the rodeo world. Coming in as an outsider I didn’t realize what all went into it,” he said. “It’s just like any sport, there’s a lot of ups and downs.”
Hanchey will enter the NFR No. 5 in the Tie-Down Roping World Standings with over $157,800 earned on the year. He will be competing for his second World Title.
