by Sheila Totten
It was a close race between PBR World Champions in Columbus,Ohio as the last event of the BFTS played out before the fans.The first round was won by 2004 World Champion Mike Lee who rode Page and Teague's Rattler for 89.25 points .The bull spun to the right while traveling and belly kicking.Mike had to be helped out after the bull horned him in the leg during the dismount.It looked like his knee was injured but Mike came back to ride Boyd,Floyd and Paradise Farms' Big Show in the Mossy Oak Shoot Out.Big Show took one leap out then made one spin to the right then jumped out of it and faked left then went back to the right.Mike stayed on and won the $15,000.He later explained that his leg was just bruised.
Brian Herman found out he had suffered a broken neck at the last event.He was heading to Columbus to ride when Tandy called him with the report.Brian underwent surgery on the 17th and will be out for at least three months.
J.B.Mauney was second in the round aboard Berger/Loe's Gold Bell Wine with 87 points while Justin McBride was in hot pursuit of Mike Lee,finishing third aboard Frontier/Teague's Shock The Monkey with 86 points. Mauney's traveling partner Brian Canter was fourth with 85 points aboard Frontier Rodeo's Freedom.
In round two it was reigning PBR World Champion Justin McBride who took the round with 89.25 aboard Frontier's Crooked Tooth who spun to the left away from Justin's hand, bucking hard with lots of change ups.That gave Justin 175.25 on two.]
Kody Lostroh was second in the round with 89 aboard Page/Teague's Wild One and Mike White was back in form as he finished third aboard Berger/Struvic's Kamo Kat. Dustin Hall and Paolo Crimber shared 4/5 with 87.50 points.
Our local hero Cory Rasch scored 84.75 in the first round which carried Cory back for the short go as he bucked off of Jeopardy in round two.
Fan Favorite Adriano Moraes scored 86.25 aboard Copperhead Slinger in round two as the bull spun away from Adriano's hand with lots of speed and action.It was a great looking ride but it was easy to see that Adriano was in lots of pain.
Mossy Oak Mudslinger looked great and it was almost as if the bull was saying don't retire me as he bucked Cory Rasch off .The bull score was 45.25. Cory tied for 15/17 in the average.It was all bulls as the first five riders bit the dust.J.B.Mauney topped Cordell and Loudamy's Uncle Charlie with a scor eof 89.It was a great ride as the bull spun to the left into Mauney's hand with lots of rear,drop and kick.J.B. was fourth in the round and tied for 4/5 in the average. Mike white is looking good although he has to improve his get -offs. He drew Hot Licks who spun to the right into his hand for 90.75 points while Mike remained in complete control. The dismount was ugly as he was thrown into the chute and was stepped on but the report was simply a bruise.Mike was third in the round and in the average.
Brian Canter made a great ride aboard Here's Your Sign for 91.75 points as the bull spun to the left into his hand in a fast drifting spin down the arena.It looks like Brian may have broke his thumb on his free hand. Brian had the lead with 260.50 on three head until Justin McBride rode Big Bucks for 93 points.It was a great ride and a battle of champions.The bull spun to the right into Justin's hand and rocked him forward and back. Justin became the first PBR rider to ride Big Bucks.This was Justin's second tour title in a row and his third for the season.That's a great way to head into the finals .
