Clint Summers' Crunch-Time NFR Push
About this episode
Clint Summers was outside the Top 15 until the last run of the last rodeo of the 2023 ProRodeo regular season. The NFR switchender needed to spin his final-round steer for Jake Long in 3.6 seconds or less to move into the Top 15 headers in the world, and he had to jump out of his just-use-your-horse-and-catch mindset to lay it all on the line. Lay it all on the line he did, with the flag falling in exactly 3.6 seconds to get Summers to the Finals with Long.
Along the way, Summers learned a lot about his abilities, relied on some talented horsepower and drove a lot of miles in the pickup. In this episode, we check in with Summers after the dust settled on the head side as he prepares for his third NFR, and second on the head side.
