Said this body is only going to get one shot those other two events the worst we can do is cut my hands off bulldogging tough on your body be a winner D nine flat take your time remember this is the second run on this penes they were ROP the second
Night sometimes this will be the tough run on them they were run they were scored they were tied down but basically everybody got a fresh calf the first three nights when they get the second run on them sometimes they’re tougher then maybe the third and fourth it’ll be easier then
Maybe you can wad all of that information up and stick it on the bottom of your boot you can’t make it work just by predictions you’ve got to do it with Talent and he’s on his way to prove he’s got it we’re home 91 pner yes sir buddy Freddy Whitfield in
Behind that barrier again ladies and gentlemen don’t forget tomorrow morning early about 8:30 9:00 they’re going to start that National Finals bucking horse and bull sale day number two right here at the Thomas and Mack Arena Here Comes Fred Whitfield this kid tall and lanky
Off the Indian side down to the calf now everything’s fcking for him look out show time look at this the number one rookie Freddy Whitfield of Cyprus Texas let’s make sure everything’s going to stay tight get ready The Hoot and Holler because you just saw him rope and tie that calf
9 seconds flat tonight thank you hey hey hey now listen to this I’m going to give you that old if story again but if he should win the round Mike Johnson has already been long yeah I mean you get your momentum up get it going and I mean there’s some
Guys coming up that live for Jerry you remember I mean if we didn’t have we wouldn’t have now Jo this guy can strike he’s got a pretty good Gap the Gap was tied in 11 also tied in nine a little earlier Jo had a little stutter
Step he miss grabbing that leg or a going to tell how fast he be he’s 8 n so I me that’s money1 I tell you was a little embarrassing to talk about the the mistakes that that I was pointing out there when the guys were open Cavs in 8
Seconds but Joe could have been a little faster than that they make them kind of mistakes and he’ll be fast he’s he’s tremendously fast too I mean from his horse to getting down to the KE and getting him on the ground this is Jerry allly as we look at
Calf rope is Jerry all qualified for his first national finals this year all’s capable of turning that around at any given time off nice start on that run flanks him nicely wraps and ties and gets it all done in a time of 8 and 510 of a second eight and five awfully good
For Alli as you see him mount back up move forward knows that what he’s going to need is to perform well on the C the C run a little harder than he did the last two times we saw him well he’s got him on his side now he
Just needs to make sure he just stays smooth and not only smooth now we’re looking at a 9.7 is winning this go round and D pick it if things stay tied and on their sides is going to move that all right Troy BR he was smiling when we
Took that picture and he is still smiling he needs 20.5 to finish first of the championship of the world he needs not to break the barrier he needs not to miss the cap he has missed the cap he has missed the cap well he can still two
Loop him now we’re looking at 20 seconds and he’s to him in eight there’s nine now he used to just stay calm make it work make it work oh hey that string wow guys that piging string almost came off of the front foot of that c it is just
Hanging on the toe oh man this is wild I’m not going to call this one for you we’ll regroup and do it is what we will and now had to had to rope this G he had to be under 20 and you saw him missed the
CF you can see it the background but you can also see that he put together almost 100 Grand and PR it comes away of the championship of the world Jerry Jaton for his second time in his career has been reserved Champion Jerry will remember missing that c after absolutely
A brilliant performance literally all week long Joe Lucas with the good solid runs that he made all the way through will wind up in third place and DP pick it ends up in the top four Troy puit had smoked them all year long in the Circ finals that’s during
Well there’s the there’s the kid in Ln South Dakota that they’re so proud of Troy P his first time to the NFI and comes here in the lead he’s a picture of concentration in that box also isn’t he got a good run going a little cooperation from
Theif got a little problem with the string now we’re going to kick lots of problems 11 12 the seconds go by the little tug was evident there also again when we were when we were kind of counting him down at the road to the NFR I guess we
Didn’t talk about this great guy Roy coer and he can burn him up I got a feeling that Cooper is going to strike and he’s going for it tonight again being a little cautious with that tie Roy’s always been known as a go round Roper though he wants the money
Every time he nods Mr Cooper well you know he’s so smooth it looked perhaps like the Run was going to be a little slower the clock tells us so Smo on the ground it’s Joe Parson he’s been here before Joe took a couple years off from rodeo and came back strong this year
And 1989 a good head Loop good quick Loop Jo got a little problem getting to the CF no strain going to have a good quick tie didn’t take long now there is a great recovery he was out of time when he Mike Johnson came here with his best
Chance to win the World Championship now at the end of round two he had slipped from his Original Number Two Place 25 and he’s in sixth place in the average so a lot of time to recovery isn’t it for him well you talk about jets in this
Modern Age now Mike Johnson if things go right to be so fast you almost need a microscope to see good well he can he can I’ve uh named him the Speedster many times on our and he not let us down all important start out of that box
To get that go that they’re looking for Hadley and if it happens they can really be fast CCH tonight he’s got it he’s got a chance the great going to happen Hadley a little bit towards his horse care relaxes we’re going a new leader you could see it happening
Couldn’t you all the way through that yeah that man riding in David B had to count his pennies when they put it all together between he and Joe Lucas to see who was going to fill that number 15 hole and I think the margin was a191 .91 one man sits home and watches
It on television and the other man gets a try at $50,000 that’s an ironic situation yes it is especially what you’re talking about way up in the $30,000 range first time heing he’s a big man so big Cav is going to be his Forte and look here he handles him with
Ease kev’s legs over his string makes a bit of a bobble but still 10 F that’s what I wanted him to do was to beat his nice run 10 and five and that boy is big and stout this is go round number four the Thomas and Macarena in the National
Finals Rodeo and in our C roping competition our races are forming very tight Ray braen you see at just over $58,000 and just over the lead of Mike Johnson the man they call the Speedster and we’ll see what happens in round four as far as his Speedster condition is
Termed here Brandy de C drift Texas his first trip here deam placed in round one that last boy ry’s getting a quick go at this c c kind of gets around kind of a big wild C right here gets him on his side here goes the raft one two and
A quick half hitch hey look at here Hadley a difference it didn’t look that fast did it no but did you see him reach up and rope that c he only swung that rope about twice and he fired it from his hip a will keeper rookies back to back
David Bowen no Texas it’s his first trip here boy this is a big Stout guy and he’s another one of those guys that can work in a hurry boy sometimes the momentum like that that you see a great run right before you it kind of rubs off
A little bit it can work in your favor at times because boy you back in there now and you’re excited you’re wanting to make things happen won $6,000 boy gets him ROP in good shape a little further down the arena than he needed but he’s in good shape now here
Go the RS one two hey hey I told you my gosh what a run well now we talk about rookies we talk about first year Jitters I don’t think there’s anything like that going on with these guys much we talk to this man right ahead of the performance and
Ask him what kind of a calf he had drawn Chris said uh big you said tall and he said big well I happen to get a look at that c it looked like a rhinoceros standing in that pin compared to some of those other Cavs and I know Chris probably wasn’t happy on
Having him big red calf he ran pretty hard but Chris got to him in good shape he’s down the arena ways but he’s going to make it go at it here go the wraps one two nice run by Chris lard he doesn’t get intimidated by anything does he no he doesn’t we look
At Jerry Jaton as the crowd behind him you see them getting ready to cheer this man on the 36 years old he has struck before close to a world title would like to make that even a reality this year as you’ve seen the record for Jaton so far
Far he’s made just over $7,000 in the first four rounds of competition but he also has gone out on one C so he’s a dangerous man in that position he’s 12 in the average he’ll look for go round money Randy we call him head hunters when they’re out of the average they go
For Broke they’ll push on the barrier they’ll wrap him quick and Jaton does what he has to do you know Butch NOS it’s one thing to make a game plan we can sit here and tell the fans at home exactly what they need to do those men
Know it too but it takes a professional to carry it out now we talk about the leaders in our cfro and Jerry Jon who has denied a world title about six years ago is back looking for one this year you see Ray Raven he’s right in that
Running as well and when you’re talking of only that much division it’s not that much money but here is a realistic view Chris libert at 56,000 holds fifth in the average then David Bowen at 48,000 he’s showing he’s the man that came in the 15th and is climbing way up the ladder a
Possibility or a shot at a title for that man all right the R by Ricky Canton is the one we’re looking at here now Canton has to win go oh my God he’s after a go around now as he did that by virtue of one of the longest reaches I have ever
Seen throw in that Loop he needs 10 flat to lead for the world championship right now oh boy he snuck a loop on him that is happening tonight isn’t it it is but it’s going to count who cares what a r he got him oh did he get him was lucky
He caught that c but after he locked out he didn’t waste any other luck speaking of Joe Parsons there’s his brother Clay Joe’s biggest fan here tonight no doubt maybe besides his wife he says come on come on Joe come on now if we keep our
Cameras train there Joe gets a good run you put the camera back on them as soon as it’s over and Clay is going to be standing on that railing yeah he will he will now that horse 20 years old was voted horse of the Year Wht is what they
Call him Roy rode him to a world championship few years ago oh boy here we goes don’t youy quick guys he made a super move coming down that rope now he’s going to lack it all right he will need to be 93 or better to take the lead away from David
Bowen in the average now that could enhance his chances to win the World title if he does this well 93 is not out of the question but he didn’t draw the cap he needed to be that on he goes a long ways down the arena he’s got to hurry now he’s got to
Make it up on the tie one two in the half pitch oh how close I’m going to tell you something Butch and Randy I have to call that Loop that he threw the gamble of the day he was in second place in the average and look at how far he
Threw at this G if he’ have missed him it would have been history well if he didn’t throw then he wasn’t going to get a throw either because that was just going right on away from him he took a Gamble and it paid off Raven will win the world
Title the strength of the Canadian contingent was in the capable hands of Cliff Williamson he alone had a clear-cut shot at the world title but CF roping has been dominated by the greats such as Ferguson Lynn and of course Cooper and there’s a new for that’s
Already etched a mark in the Hall of Fame he’s creating a beaver dam at the top that will not easily be broken his his size as we look at the top six it was like this Joe Beaver and Cliff Williamson I don’t think they’re happy about the run that Jaton just made that
Might spoil their game plan Lucas he’s won a lot of money play Tom Cooper he’s had a good finals but he’ll not win the championship of the world it’s between those top two men here’s a guy well look at those kids boy they’re leaning out over The Edge looking at their fan
They’re a fan of I should say Ricky Kon he’s a man that can be so quick the Houston Texas kid is off in a hurry well for the city of the Astrodome we’ll see you in February and March and this man will be back he will not be
Bringing a gold buckle in a new title however I’m sure that his pride of being included in the top 15 he worked hard to earn that just be happy to go home for the holidays let me tell you how important that qualification at the Cow
Palace for this man May may turn out to be this8 and five puts him in the lead and he could go away from here with $30,000 in his pocket now Joe Lucas is another story he’s batting about 500 coming in here that means that he’s uh tooken no time on approximately half of
His Cavs but he has struck on the ones he rot nearly 20,000 W and the maple leaf flags are flying in Thomas and macarina again Bo this guy can be quick oh he can be quick he fumbled a tie earlier this week for an 83 and he would have been in the [Applause]
Sevens it almost looked like that pause when he pulled that tie right there that would just stop the camera I’ve never figured out why this man does not win more than he does he is probably one of the best go round Ropers under pressure and we’ll see him a lot
Of times you know I think he just gets tired this kid doesn’t like to travel like a lot of guys he go for a couple of months and then oh he says I got to go to Canada and go fishing we’ve discussed the Rope off that he and Larry Robinson
Had for the Canadian championship and they’ve roped their last two Cavs in the eights that 10-1 for Lucas has put him in third place in the round right now however so it is not looking that Bleak for him Herbert Tero talk about a speeder now this guy went out of the
Average pretty early in the week since then he’s been a head hunter that’s what we call him riding hard at the barrier rare up look rope the big red rone gets in the ground oh look out it’ll be quick it’ll be quick nice run a bear that
Eight and six is one thing but as he gets back on his horse take a look at the main he spent three or four hours this morning braiding the main on this horse he heard the comment I made last night that we ought to cut this horse’s
Head off and hide it he said Bob he’s a real nice horse I know he’s not too pretty but he’s dressed him up today that’s a little extra isn’t that nice yes now we were talking about a 10-1 by Lucas holding third in the round a 10-4 clinging to the last hole everybody’s
Been moved to notch now Lucas has been pushed down to fourth place in the round Tero with that eight and six has jumped right in there solid is what he’s done in second place is where he’s at oh boy now think about this Williamson and beaver waiting in the wings yet they’re still
And think about Dave Smith he said beavers got the best one in there that may be on Davey P Smith’s mind but he also is thinking I will take advantage of whatever luck I’ll have two swings and he’s to him let know wi some money on a Sunday
Afternoon here in Las Vegas this is probably one of the biggest but most quiet men very modest and Mild manner that you’ll ever meet I want you to know with that run by Dave Smith and as we watch the replay of it you can see this man made made no mistakes
Whatsoever watch him kind of float out there in that right strip that’s one of the greatest athletic moves that anybody makes in professional Rodeo getting off that right side in this Gaff R and he’s nine flat the 10 are history we have three eights and a nine winning this
Money right now I know there’s some fans up in our home country and my neighbors that are proud to have just had DAV P Smith here and may I say he has represented the Northwest very very well in case the fans at home did not understand that quote a moment ago by
Dave when he said that Beaver has the best one here he’s talking about the best calf in this pan drawn now Williams is under pressure here’s the Hammerman oh man depending on how many swings he takes to drive the nail will make all of the difference in what Joe beer has to
Do he had to stop and straighten the legs of the calf and that may that just may put the world championship out of sight for him 10 and three and I know he’s disappointed now the first basic moves the first 50% of this run there was absolutely no mistakes flanked him
Clean now watch him get the string in between the two hind feet of the C that puts everything out of position and he had to slow down it cost him well it may have cost him but it is going to relax the atmosphere for a big man who’s left
Leg is half again the size of his right he’s been sore since the day he got here can I talk about something that may be equally important to this man he wants to win this calf rubbing championship and he has an excellent chance right now he has drawn the calf but Mike Johnson
Won the round him but he could win the all-around ground too he must be listened to you Hadley because Joe the Beamer is going to do it he’ll not place in the round no but you notice how he took one one wrap pull two wrap pull and the tie he ensured
Himself that that calf would stay tied for the full six seconds whatever you have written down for Joe Beaver you can add 20,000 to it because he’s just won the average that could make the difference nine and four he will not win any of the go round however had we had
Three rapid 8sec runs Ricky Canton gets the best shot he’ll go to about 34,000 because he moved up in the average you can see it right there Terio Jaton and Smith have all struck a very tough round of Gaff ring here in number 10 and we
Expected that third times a charm but in round nine did you feel the title slipping away I felt it slip away a lot when I missed that one but kind of made me mad and when I caught him that second loop I figured I had a pretty good chance tonight
