“I joined the PRCA in 2003 and came close to making the National Finals Rodeo several times during those early years. In 2009, all I had to do was catch my steer at Pendleton and I was in the NFR, but I broke the barrier. I came back strong in 2010 and made the National Finals with Cody Hintz. I didn’t have a great NFR, but it was a big lesson in how to rope at the Thomas & Mack. In my mind, after coming close so many times and then finally making the Finals, I figured I wouldn’t miss again. In 2011, Cody and I had a phenomenal winter. At one point, we might have been winning the world. After that I didn’t win a check until Vernal, Utah. In the middle of July. My head horses all went crippled. I didn’t have the money to go buy another one. I mean, it was just one thing after another. I finished 2011 in 21st place. The next year, I was 18t h. The year after that, 23r d. The year after that, 20th. I just could not make the NFR again. Around 2015, I said, I’m done. I’m sick of being broke. I’ve got two little girls. I’m just gonna work. I started driving a truck. Then I bought four trucks and put drivers in them, but that didn’t work out like I had hoped. I got rid of all but one truck and was still driving here and there this winter. It was the only way I knew of making a living. But not rodeoing was killing me. I knew I had the talent to get to the NFR.” - Ty Blasingame Presented by @besteverpads | @thecowboyjournal Photo by @mattcohenphoto ••• Read the full story thecowboyjournal.com #rodeo #rodeostories #rodeolife #teamroping #ropehorse #teamroper #rodeophotography #rodeohorse #header #heeler
