Jess Pope is making it clear that he is a force to be reckoned with at the Thomas and Mack. After a great trip in Las Vegas in 2021, he has come back to keep it all rolling.
“My job is to ride bucking horses. That’s what I show up to do, I don’t do anything different before the NFR that I don’t do all year long,” Pope said.
It was a tough night of bareback riding as the horses of the eliminator pen proved why they were there. We saved the best for last with Pope’s 86.5-point ride on Stace Smith Pro Rodeo’s Mr. Harry.
