Hudson Bolton is going into his first National Finals Rodeo with remarkable momentum. Sitting first in the Resistol Rookie Race and sixth in the world standings, he heads into Las Vegas already having made a major impact in his debut season in rodeo.
After securing the PBR Rookie of the Year, he now aims to become the first athlete to claim both PBR and PRCA Rookie of the Year titles in the same season. His regular season earnings reached $179,477, placing him in a strong position as he prepares to compete against three other rookies for the Resistol Rookie title during the Finals.
His season includes standout wins at the Ellensburg Rodeo and the New Mexico State Fair Xtreme Bulls. As he gets set for his NFR debut, Bolton focuses on carrying that success into the Thomas and Mack and finishing what has already been a groundbreaking rookie campaign.
