              Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | I am just so impressed with the Cowboy Channel they are doing such a bang up job with this NFR, they have got so much to talk about and loving all the interviews with all the cowboy and cowgirls. Right now they are doing the TailGate Party, coming in a few mins. will be the barrelracers interviews..  |

       Location: Displaced Iowegian | They are doing a good job. The one thing that they are missing out in showing is the Junior National Finals that are happening there right now in the Cowtwon arena. It would be neat to, at least, see them interview the go-round" winners. |

I think they just have so much to talk about that they are staying really busy, but it would be cool to see some of the Jr. go round winners. I thought it was so cool that they interviewed Ethan Wayne and talking about the John Wayne Museum in Fort Worth that they open up there. |

| I love the Cowboy Channel but one thing that has been pointed out to me was that they didn't offer closed caption for the hard of hearing. I have a friend that is deaf but read lips very well but for this she needs the closed caption. Maybe they will get it in the near future, they are an awesome network never the less! |

Oh wow I didnt know that about not having closed caption. I bet you could email or write them and ask about having closed caption added to their program.. The owner of Cowboy Channel looks like hes a really nice man and I bet he would add CC in a hurry if he knew that its needed..  |

| I will say they trying hard, but the production quality is bad. It's like they are working without any producers. Bad cuts, mics being on when they shouldn't be or off when someone is talking, cameras out of sync with sound and coloring, coming back from commercials and people not knowing they are on. Sorry, but having family work in TV makes you notice things like that. It's like watching a news show that high school kids have put together. The NFR action is good as always though. |

        Location: Ky | The Cowboy Channel is doing great. Pretty much a full day of programming built around the main event. I hope the PRCA makes them their permanent home. |

Wow, thats too bad.. Me I have been watching CC and they seem to never have missed a beat while I watched, everything has been so professional I thought, I guess I have missed the bad side of them.. Now RFDTV I did have some trouble with them so I switched to CC and been very happy with them so far.. |

Usually, when they are broadcasting from two different sites at the same time. HOWEVER, I sure like it a LOT better than a couple of years ago when they would cut away from all of the timed events to have commercials ..... and you missed a couple of contestants.

I think with events like the NFR and it being live with so many things going on I can see a glitche here and there happening. I havent seen any but I'm sure they are there, I have it on most of the day but watch a little bit here and there while doing housework or coming in and out of the house doing other things, I stop for a few mins to see whats going on, I love the way they do the TailGate Party, right now its Outside the Barrel.. |

         Location: LouLouVille, OK | I think I have literally loved every min of it! Love all the openings, love all the coverage all over the arena, I mean every angle... while there maybe kinks, how do you complain when they whipped this all together in such a short time and literally give us 10 hours of COWBOY STUFF!!!  |

| They are doing a great job. We have The Cowboy Channel and RFD TV. The sound quality is much better on RFD is the only difference I have noticed. |

| You can watch the Jr NFR on cowboy channel plus. I don't have the cowboy channel so I bought the live streaming on cowboy channel plus. I think CC has done a GREAT job, and I think the rodeo has run much smoother in Arlington than Vegas. Especially love beginnings honoring military, God and country! |

          Location: 31 lengths farms | I think they have done an outstanding job with something this huge, first time in this set up . I think a mic left on or a angle shot missed is all learning curves and I'd rather watch a miss angle (or not watch it as the cAse might be) than to not have an NFR to watch at all. Well done CC!!! |

   Location: Randolph, Utah | The Cowboy channel is far and away better than CBS sports or ESPN ever was! The only complain I have, and I've seen it a lot, is you had to purchase the NFR separate from the yearly cowboy channel app subscription. We have dish so it didn't affect me, but I was under the impression the NFR would be part of the yearly cost. |

I agree, loving every min of the CC and love seeing behind the scenes action, this Rodeo has been so Fantastic this year, never saw so much stuff going on. Texas has done a really GOOD JOB with this NFR.. God Bless Texas  |
