Waylon Bourgeois Takes Lead in Round One with 86.5 Point Ride

It may be Waylon Bourgeois’s first appearance at the Reno Rodeo, but he is not letting the big atmosphere get to him. He went 86.5 points to take the lead in round one and tie the highest marked ride of the rodeo thus far.

Bourgeois was matched up with Two Buck Chuck and he knew it was going to be a battle.

“He is a special one, and Reno, this is my first time over here, I hear that this is one of the best rodeos that you will go to and I am having fun.”

After the ride, a short of breath Bourgeois said he wanted to keep his game plan simple for the rodeo.

“Just keeping my composure and doing my job every jump.”

The Reno Rodeo continues on The Cowboy Channel and PRCA on The Cowboy Channel+ App through June 25th.
