I did 5 rodeos this summer, and only "covered" in three of them, with the highest score being a third-place ribbon (with no buckles). But that was enough to qualify for the finals on October 10-12. Unfortunately, I can't fly back to Denver for the event. Plus, my goal was to *qualify* for finals... not necessarily attend. So, I'm happy with myself and feel like a right cowhand today.

At the beginning of the year, I set a goal for myself: to be invited to the IGRA finals rodeo. Well, I found out last week that I acheived enough points to compete in steer riding.

Yee-haw! Congratulations! No longer the greenhorn!
But is there an initiation?
A ribbon and no broke bones is a good year.
