Stetson Wright has the high marked ride in bull riding in Reno after an 86.5 point ride on Flying U Rodeo’s Bringin Brother.
With all of his success at Reno, it’s no surprise that Reno is one of Wright’s favorite rodeos.
“This is one of my favorite rodeos, if not my favorite of the summer. It is a good spot to kick off the summer run,” he said after his ride.
As for how those eight seconds shook out?
“I was just trying to keep my chin down because a big saying is if you can see him you can ride him so I tried to keep my chin down and he made me work for it the whole time.”
So far, there have been 12 qualified rides through four of eight Long Round performances, but only four of them have been marked 80 or higher. Coy Pollmeier is currently in second with an 83 and Cash Toews since third with an 82.
The Long Round continues through June 24 with the Short Round airing on June 25 only on The Cowboy Channel and PRCA on the Cowboy Channel+ App.
