2012 Candian Finals Rodeo<br />

Scott Schiffner, the Strathmore Alberta bull rider, spent time with<br />

Prince William and Kate at the Calgary Stampede, made two trips<br />

to China as an ambassador for Canadian rodeo and the Stampede,<br />

extended his record number of Canadian Finals Rodeo appearances<br />

to twelve, was named Cowboy of the Year during the Saturday<br />

afternoon performance of the Finals and then rode the Big Stone<br />

bull, Pop Evil to 87 points in the fi nal round to overtake season<br />

leader Ty Pozzobon and win his second Canadian title.<br />

The thirty-two year old tried to put it all in perspective moments<br />

after the fi nal performance of the CFR concluded. ”I’m the luckiest<br />

guy in the rodeo world. Everything I have in life, I owe to rodeo;<br />

this sport has given me opportunities I never would have imagined.”<br />

Another champion who won his crown with authority was<br />

Cochrane steer wrestler Tanner Milan who blazed a 3.5 second run<br />

to win the fi nal round, and clinch the aggregate title en route to his<br />

fi rst Canadian championship.<br />

“I had a steer that ran really hard but Jesse (Lee Graves’ dogging<br />

horse) just ate him up and I thought I made a pretty good run.”<br />

That ‘pretty good’ run and the $11,400 payday took Milan’s<br />

season earnings total to $67,565 and a $24,000 cushion over second<br />

place fi nisher, Canadian Rookie of the Year, Chason Floyd.<br />

In the Bareback Riding, Cowley, Wyoming cowboy, J. R. Vezain<br />

parlayed a fast start into a championship. The twenty year-old won<br />

the fi rst three go rounds and the aggregate and held off four time<br />

champion Dusty LaValley for the title.<br />

Vezain heads off to the Wrangler NFR in fourth place overall. “I<br />

hope I can keep the momentum going down there.”<br />

Team ropers Paul Eaves (Millsap, Texas) and Dustin Bird (Cutbank,<br />

Montana) put together a week that included two fi rst place<br />

fi nishes, a 1/2 split (that equaled the arena record—3.7 seconds),<br />

a fourth and a fi fth and an aggregate win to give the duo season<br />

winnings in excess of $36,000 and their fi rst title north of the 49th<br />

parallel.<br />

Despite a disappointing end to his week that saw him buck off<br />

his last two horses, Ponoka bronc rider Luke Butterfi eld hung on<br />

to win his fi rst Canadian title. The win was Butterfi eld’s fi rst and<br />

capped off a year that saw him emerge as season leader in Canada<br />

and narrowly miss a trip to the Wrangler NFR as the third generation<br />

Ponoka talent missed the fi fteen man cut by one spot.<br />

In the Tie Down Roping, Louisiana roper Shane Hanchey missed<br />

his calf in the fi nal round but was able to hang on to the commanding<br />

lead he had coming in to the last day to win his fi rst championship.<br />

Hanchey who heads off to the Wrangler NFR next month<br />

fi nished the season with $58, 000 and a comfortable $17.000 margin<br />

over runner-up, Logan Hofer of Magrath, Alberta.<br />
