There were two nights of bareback riding and saddle bronc riding at the Daily Record Xtreme Bares and Broncs in Ellensburg over the weekend.
The event has been happening for 13 years, but 2021 was its first as an official PRCA rodeo, meaning the more than $25,000 paid out went to the World Standings.
Tanner Aus won the bareback riding portion to move to No. 8 in the world and Leon Fountain is now 21st in the world after winning the saddle bronc riding.
