BUTTE – The third and final day of the NRA Finals at the Butte Civic Center has come and gone. In a very exciting and jam packed weekend, we saw competitors fighting for top spots in different events separated by mere hundreds of dollars in winnings. There was domination, like J2 Bridges in bareback riding, and Jack Graham in tie-down roping. But then there were gritty, gutsy, and determined showmanship from all the competitors as they all pursued the NRA Finals winnings. Here is a list of all the winners:
