JD Struxness Captures Opening Round Win in Pool C at Calgary Stampede

J.D. Struxness got off to a great start in Pool C going 3.6 seconds to capture an opening round win and the $7,000 that comes with it.

“It’s always good to show up and have a good steer here and you just do your job and you’ll get good money out of it.”

Struxness says that Calgary can serve as a break in the Summer Run for him and his family.

“It’s always good we are going so hard in summertime. I always take the Stampede as my break and especially with family up here we take some time go down to the ranch and hang out.”

Struxness will compete Friday and Saturday as he looks to advance to Championship Sunday in Calgary.
