World Finals pays out $150K March 8, 2010 �
Ropers
from around the nation left the Southern Championship Series World Finals on
Feb. 26-28 loaded with $157,200 cash, along with tooled leather rope bags, halters and
breastcollars. Nearly 1,500 teams came
to play at the three-day event at Dunn�s Arena in Litchfield Park, Ariz., which
kicked off with a $2,000-added Open roping that drew a hefty 50 teams and paid
winners Erich Rogers and Brady Minor $4,720 for their five-head total of 32.75
seconds. Coleman Proctor had a
great day, winning second in the Open with Caleb Twisselman and turning around
to win the #15 with Adam Rose on a four-head time of 26.17. Proctor, who owns
the fast-time record (4.4 seconds) at the Bob Feist Invitational, headed back to
the rodeo trail with $3,310 total. Miles Payne
double-dipped Friday, too, winning first and second in the #13 with Brandon
Mecham and Ricky Kee to pad his pockets with $2,400, while Martin Rucker and Dayton Stafford
took top honors in the #12 preliminary with a 32.47 for $2,820. The Pro-Am Shootout was
all about Ty Romo, who heeled four in 32.41 for Tom Richards to win it, and also
placed third with Bryce Palmer to pad his pockets with $4,985 on the
day. West Coast cowgirl Barbara Kenny was
on fire all weekend. She jumped out and won the #11 preliminary with Dace Woods
for $1,705 a man, placed third in the Over-40 roping with Richard Glassford for
$825 each and then won the Amateur Shootout with Leo Woodbury for a cool $3,895
apiece. Her haul on Saturday was $6,425 cash, plus a tooled ropebag and
breastcollar. Bruce Northrop and Bill
Dahlke won the #10 to split $4,200 and advance to the Shootout, where they
placed third for another $4,110. The Over-40 roping was won by Leo Teague and
Jerry Satterfield for $3,820. Jerry then placed third in the Shootout with Doyle
Morrison for $4,560. On Sunday, the ladies
kicked things off with a win in the All-Girl by Tamara Thomas and Samantha Taylor, followed by #9
winners Macy Fuller and Aaron Semas, who earned $3,900 and advanced to the
Novice Shootout, where they placed fifth for another $1,690, plus a fast-time
prize of $320. Sean Doherty and Scott Jamison won the #8 Pick-and-Draw for
$3,070, with Jamison nabbing another $1,580 with Barrett Littell for
third. The richest roping of
the weekend turned out to be the Novice Shootout on Sunday, which paid out
$24,400 � for fees of just $80 a man. Bob Rice had a Shootout but was short a
partner, so the entry office matched him with JJ Butler, and the pair roped four
steers in 33.11 seconds to split a whopping $8,670. For complete results,
