Thanks to a big win in St. Paul, Kade Bruno added over $13,000 to his season earnings. Bruno was marked at 87 points on Big Ben Rodeo’s Broken Camp to edge out Chase Brooks by .5 points.
Broken Camp got the best of Bruno the first time he was on her, but he knew this was a horse he could win the rodeo on.
“I had been on her once before and she kind of led me around. I was like 75 the first time. It’s a really good horse. Zeke has won this rodeo on her before.”
Bruno is up to No. 9 in the Saddle Bronc World Standings after the win and has now made over $83,000 this season.

Breakaway roping was added to the lineup of rodeo events for the first time this year at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo, and 2X WPRA world champion Hope Thompson became the first to throw her rope.
It was as close as it could possibly get in the tie-down roping as Shad Mayfield, who entered the Wrangler NFR with a lead of about $90,000, held off Marty Yates by less than $200 to win his first Gold Buckle.
