Billings, MT--The team made up from two ranches coming together, Bootheel 7 Ranch and Hageman Ranch, won the Ranch Rodeo in Douglas this past weekend, qualifying them for NILE Ranch Rodeo Finals.
It was a close competition with the second place team only one point behind the winners. Four Three/FX Bar Ranch Team just barely missed out on winning a second NILE qualifier. They previously won the Eastern Wyoming Ranch Rodeo.
Third place was awarded to Broken Arrow/Hanson Livestock Team. Due to the fact that the second place team already qualified, and two teams from the Wyoming State Fair Ranch Rodeo Finals get invited to the NILE, this team will most likely be making a trip to Billings too.
Fourth place went to First Northern Bank Team, followed by the Twiford Ranch in fifth, and Rough Country Outfitters in sixth. The Load-Um in the Dark team came in seventh place.
The bronc riding was instrumental in the team's placings. Lance Hladky from the Bootheel 7/Hageman team earned 76 point on the bronc Centerfold. Chris Laucomer came close with 75 points on Sure Shot, he rides for the Four Three/FX Bar Team. Broken Arrow/Hanson Team's Ben Hanson rode Short Cut for 74 points. Cheyenne Seymour put a ride on Dry Summer for 70 points for the First Northern Bank Team.
The Bootheel 7 ranch and Hageman ranch have both had teams compete in the NILE in past years. Combined, they may have one tough team to beat this Fall. Don't miss out on watching these teams at the Farstad Oil Ranch Rodeo Finals at the NILE, October 14th. Tickets are on sale now.
The winning team from the
Wyoming State Fair Ranch Rodeo will compete at the Farstad Oil Ranch Rodeo Finals at the NILE Saturday, October 14 at 7 p.m. in Billings, Montana. The NILE is proud to have the Wyoming State Fair Ranch Rodeo as one of the sanctioning partners.
