Final Results for the 2012 Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo

CHAMPIONS CROWNED AT ABILENE RODEO

67th annual event wraps up

Abilene, Kans. - August 5, 2012 - The dust has settled, the big trailers and rigs are gone, the fans are home, and the books wrap up on another successful Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo in Abilene.

Champions were crowned in each of seven events.

Jared Keylon was the only Kansas cowboy to win a title in Abilene. The Uniontown cowboy is having the best year of his career. He's currently ranked No. 13 in the Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association standings, with $42,267 won. If he can stay in the top fifteen in the world through September 30, he'll be on his way to his first ever National Finals Rodeo, pro rodeo's world championship held in Las Vegas in December. Keylon has won money at the Abilene rodeo before but has never won the title.

In the saddle bronc riding, Cody Martin, Eagle, Colo., rode Toy Box for 85 points and the win. Martin, who attended Missouri Valley College in Marshall, Mo., is a Tennessee native. He has competed at the National Finals Rodeo twice.

In the timed events, Chance E. Howard, Cedarville, Ark., won the steer wrestling. Out of 78 steer wrestlers, his time of 3.4 was the fastest. Tie-down roper Chris Demases, Boyd, Texas, took the championship in his event (8.5 seconds), and team ropers Hunter Munsell, Arnett, Okla., and Derrick Jantzen, Ames, Okla. won their event (4.9 seconds.) Barrel racer Kaley Bass bested a field of 69 cowgirls with her run of 17.26 seconds to win the title. Less than four-tenths of a second separated Bass from the number ten cowgirl, Angie Meadors (17.64).

Three Utah cowboys dominated the bull riding, winning the top three places. Chris Roundy, Spanish Fork, scored 89 points on the bull J96, Andrews Rodeo Co., to win first place. The 22 year old cowboy knew nothing about the bull he rode, but stock contractor Sammy Andrews had promised him he’d buck well. "He jumped right, faked to the left, and stayed spinning. I just got lucky enough to stay on." Second and third place in the bull riding went to Steve Woolsey, Payson, Utah, and Tim Bingham, Honeyville, Utah, respectively.

Funds were raised on Friday, August 2 for cancer patients through the rodeo's annual Tough Enough to Wear Pink campaign. All monies raised went to the Elsie Brooks Cancer Fund of Dickinson County, and fans were asked to wear pink to show their support of cancer awareness. A pink fire truck from Wichita was at the rodeo grounds for the event.

The 2013 rodeo will be held July 31 - August 3. Plans are underway for the 68th annual rodeo.

ENERGY, EXCITEMENT ENTICE COWBOY

Second night of rodeo takes place in Abilene

Abilene, Kans. - August 2, 2012 - Fans enjoy the Abilene rodeo because it’s exciting.

Cowboy contestants do, too.

The excitement of pro rodeo and the Abilene rodeo in particular is what brought Apache, Okla. cowboy Bryson Sechrist to Abilene to compete during the first full night of rodeo.

The 20 year old cowboy had the fast time of the night - 9.2 seconds - which put him in second place for the rodeo so far.

Sechrist, in his first year of Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association membership, is leading the Resistol Rookie of the Year Standings for the tie-down roping. He’s also third in the standings for the Prairie Circuit, pro rodeo’s designation of rodeos in Kansas, Oklahoma and Nebraska.

He will be a sophomore at Western Oklahoma State University in Altus this fall, where he competed in collegiate rodeo. But if his pro rodeo career continues as strong as it has been, he’ll focus on the PRCA rodeos instead of college rodeos. College rodeos are "fun, but the PRCAs are a lot funner. More excitement, more energy," Sechrist said.

He’s hitting the rodeo trail hard, trying to hang on to his first place Rookie standing. "I've got to (compete) where I can," he said. “Them boys in the rookies, they’re catching up to me quick. I have to stay ahead of them.

In the bareback riding, saddle bronc riding, and bull riding, the horses and bulls weren't kind to the cowboys. There were no qualified rides among the 22 contestants. In the steer wrestling, two cowboys tied for fast time of the night. Ryan Swayze, Freedom, Okla., and Billy Bugenig, Ferndale, Calif., both had times of 4.4 seconds. Barrel racer Whitney Baker, Stephenville, Texas, had a time of 17.39 for the night, and team roping brothers Andrew Ward and Reagan Ward, Edmond, Okla., turned in a time of 6.5 seconds for the fast time of the night.

Tough Enough to Wear Pink night is Friday, August 3, during the third night of rodeo. Fans are asked to wear pink to support the fight against cancer, and donations will be taken for the Elsie Brooks Cancer Fund of Dickinson County. Tickets are available through the fair office (785.263.4570) and online at www.ckff.net. More rodeo information can be found at www.WildBillHickokRodeo.com.

CONSISTENCY KEY TO WINNING

Bull rider leads the field at Abilene rodeo

Abilene, Kans. - August 1, 2012 - Whatever Chris Roundy is doing right, he's trying to find the secret to his success and keep it going.

The Spanish Forks, Utah bull rider scored 89 points on his bull during the first night of competition at the Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo in Abilene to take the lead in his event.

He's been on a winning streak lately. He won third place at rodeos in Spanish Forks, Utah, and Salinas, Calif., and won the rodeo in Nampa, Ida., all in the last ten days.

Consistency is the secret to riding bulls successfully. "When you get on a roll, you just try to find what keeps you up. However you're staying on them, you have to figure out how to do that every time so you can stay on all of them."

Part of his success he credits to his traveling partners. "The people you travel with, you have to have as positive. If you have a guy who's negative in the car, it really takes a downfall on the whole vehicle." Roundy's traveling partners, Lucas Guilbeau, Cameron Bland, and Chandler Bownds have helped him. "I couldn't have done it without them."

Roundy began mutton bustin' when he was three years old, and "it's been an everyday deal since then." He competed at the junior, Little Britches, high school, and college level before becoming a Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association member four years ago.

Leaders in other events include Florida barrel racer Kaley Bass (17.26); steer wrestler Tooter Silver, Quitman, Ark., (3.7); team ropers Trevor Brazile and Patrick Smith (5.0), and tie-down roper Chris Demases, Boyd, Texas (8.5). Saddle bronc rider Cody Martin scored 84 points to set the lead in his event.

The second night of rodeo in Abilene takes place on August 2. Tickets are available through the fair office (785.263.4570) and online at www.ckff.net. More rodeo information can be found at www.WildBillHickokRodeo.com.

TITLES WON AT WILD BILL HICKOK RODEO

Louisiana bareback rider wins title, has surprise visitors

Abilene, Kans. - August 6, 2011 - Winn Ratliff drew the horse of his dreams at the Wild Bill Hickok Rodeo this weekend.

The bareback rider rode the horse C12 PTSD Power Play of the Andrews Rodeo Co., for 86 points and the bareback riding championship on Saturday night at the rodeo in Abilene, Kansas.

Ratliff, whose traveling partner Heath Ford has ridden Power Play, had wanted to get on that horse for a long time. "I'd always seen him on TV and really liked how he bucked," Ratliff said. "He is real showy, a crowd pleaser." Usually, when Ratliff draws a good horse, he has trouble sleeping the night before. But not for Power Play. "I was excited but I didn't really let it get to me. I got my rest and the good Lord blessed me with the draw."

And in addition to his title win in Abilene, he got a surprise on Saturday night: his parents and sister traveled from their home in southwestern Louisiana to watch Winn compete. "We were traveling from Phillipsburg (Kan.) and my traveling partner's wife said, 'hey, we have some friends coming over and we're going to meet them'' We stopped at a McDonald's and my sister and parents were there. I was glad to see them."

The cowboy claims his strong suit is not bareback riding but bull riding. He didn't pick up bareback riding till his sophomore year in college, and his mom wasn't sure about that. "She doesn't want me to throw my rigging on a bareback horse. She doesn't like how the horses act in the bucking chute." He is the 2011 College National Finals Rodeo all around champion, having competed in both events in college. For right now, he's focusing on the bareback riding in the PRCA.

Ratliff will finish his college education at McNeese State University in Lake Charles, La. this fall, graduating in December with a degree in secondary education. He plans on earning a master's degree in education administration and pursuing a career as a school superintendent and baseball coach.

Other champions in Abilene included steer wrestler Casey Martin; saddle bronc rider Bradley Harter; tie-down roper Cimarron Boardman; team ropers Chad Masters and Jade Corkill; barrel racer Maegan Reichert, and bull rider Trey Benton III.
