Ruland Arena Fall/Winter Series Results
Ruland Arena finished another competitive barrel racing series. Fuel prices seemed to keep the numbers down somewhat. The competitors took home leather goods including rope cans, bronc halters, crosses, and frames by Mitch and Jed Kammerer, and trophy horse blankets with lettering by Stephen’s Specialties. Jodie O’Bryan ran consistently fast times aboard her good buckskin gelding she calls “Redneck”. She pulled off the 1D title and the Fast Time award. Taylor Richter kept barrels standing throughout the series, and earned her first buckle win. The 1D, 2D, and 3D are various divisions, with the fastest times falling into the 1D. This format allows horses in all stages of training to place in the divisions to earn money and points. The next series begins in late February and goes through April.
