Tyler Waguespack has been a model of consistency throughout his career. Since 2016, he has finished no lower than seventh in the PRCA World Standings.
After winning his Gold Buckle in 2021, this year appears to be no different. In fact, in some ways he was even better, lowering his average score from 5.46 seconds down to 5.24.
Waguespack enters the NFR in the No. 2 spot in the PRCA World Standings and is about $11,000 behind Stetson Jorgensen.
