CoBurn Bradshaw moves inside the Top 15
The many ProRodeo seasons for Defile bronc rider Coburn Bradshaw have been full of ups and downs.
Lately, he acknowledges that he has been full of the latest the last few times. As a result, the Beaver, Utah buckaroo hasn’t qualified for Wrangler’s last three national test rodeos. The lack of success forced him to find another job for the time being.
It was more of a mind game for me for a while. The 27-year-old Bradshaw said. I ended up leaving the rodeo and going to work. Post-COVID, I was sucked dry by the plutocrat, and I wasn’t going to go begging trying to put on a rodeo. So, I left the truck, and I bought a semi-trailer.
He wasn’t going back. I was going to do some rodeo circuit around the house. Also, Reno was excellent, and the last part of last time was perfect. So I thought I would presumably go in full time this time and try again.
The drift has started to turn for the four-time NFR qualifier in 2022. At the April 18 PRCA | RAM World Standings, he jumped nine places from 23rd to 14th with $. However, he said there is no less feeling of being back where you feel you belong.
It sure feels good; I’m glad to be back at the top of the game again. Everything has gone very well this time, and he feels better than the last two times, that’s for sure.
Returning to the Top 15 in April is just one small achievement on Bradshaw’s list of goals for 2022. He has his sights set on returning to the Tests for the first time since 2018. He knows thickness will be crucial if he wants to end the regular season with a trip to Las Vegas on the calendar.
The last time I did was in 2018, and I beat the average, Bradshaw said. Also, everything went straight up for me after that. I just haven’t been adequate to get over that hump. I know that being harmonious is crucial if Joe wants to do the NFR. That’s where I lost my edge for a while. I know harmonious guys do the tests, and I lost my girth there a couple of times.
You can’t do that, and you can’t waste openings to win plutocrats because guys are currently missing $100 Proofs of Purchase in some cases. So yes, staying in harmony is the most important thing. I feel like I’m riding as well as ever right now, and my confidence is as high as it has been since I last tested.
