| I thought it was great and Congratulations to Lisa Lockhart for the win. Did anyone else think it odd that the girls that ran after the second drag didn't seem to clock as well? It was a pretty good group....but I believe they were all 15's? A lot of thorses worked pretty nice. Just wondering if anybody else saw that? |

| I saw the ground was pretty deep and sandy and they all had way too much room around the barrels and lost time running too far in ground like that. |

| Well I thought Mary walker would have been faster. I was shocked at how nice Trula horse worked. The times just looked off to me Jmo.....

Location: Texas | I love watching Trula's horse work, I was disappointed they didn't get a faster time.
It was a good group of ladies and horses, the ground seemed to be slick and/or sandy after the drag... |

| You could see the shock on Trula Churchil's face. These girls run enough to know how their horses should clock. Fallon's run smoked and her time was way off too. These were not the only ones. Surely they had more than one timer. There definately was a difference there. |

| Well that was kinda of what I saw. Those girls run all the time and they do know what their horses are capable of....glad a few saw it and thought wow that seems off...... |

Location: In the land of peanuts and cotton | I noticed too. All I can come up with is the dirt was far from consistent.
Off topic but I went to feed after barrels. What in the world did I miss in bull riding? All I'm seeing is the blood bath on Facebook about the Brazilian getting to ride. |

My understanding is there had to be 4 in the shoot out and when there were only 3 then he got to go back because of his standing in PBR at the end of the year. |

Location: MD | The only one that truly shocked me was Trula's time. I thought Worm worked as nice as I've seen him. The others all had bobbles that they couldn't outrun on slower ground.
Silvano not only got into the Shootout by default, but then he pulled his usual tricks of soaking his bull. It was BAD! He might have had one of the most questionable replays I have ever seen too, but without a super clear look at his hand, he ended up with the win. |

They did lose a stake during one drag. |

"Soaking" his bull? What does that mean? |

| Fun2Run - I did see them measuring for the stake also after that drag. I think due to the rush of time, I believe the barrel was possibly not in the correct position, giving a disadvantage to that group! |

I want to know this too. I keep seeing people comment about it on Facebook. |

| Purposefully sitting on the bull longer than needed and tightening then loosening the rope multiple times in an effort to take the edge off the bull and even wear it down before the gate opens. |

Location: MD | ItsMe is correct. There has been a huge change in PBR rules because of this. They now have a chute timer and barring any crazy circumstances, you either get your butt to work, or get off. The main offenders have been Brazilians and Silvano is really bad about it. That being said, whether I agree with the fact that he was even allowed to ride tonight, or how he conducted himself in the Shootout, the man always seems to find a way to win. |

I saw that too.
I was right on that side of the arena, very close and they found the stake. |
