It is wind-down time for the PRCA full-time road warriors as the 2009 season ended with the final performance of the Tri-State Rodeo in Amarillo, Texas on Sept. 26, plus the final round of the Justin Boots Playoff Series in Omaha, Neb., also ending Sept. 26.
The remaining winnings that can be counted for 2009 are those earned at the Heartland Finals in Waco, Texas, Oct. 9-17—money won that might, in a very few instances, change the standings for the top 15 for Wrangler National Finals Qualifications. Most top 15 slots in each event are pretty well established although the Omaha outcome may change a few players around in the top 15 from their current rankings. Following Waco’s Heartland Championship, the field of players for the 51st WNFR, to be held in Las Vegas Dec. 3-12, will be released, and you can check for the list to pick your winning team.
