With a win by .05 seconds even
after a leg in the short round, Jack Foster, Stockton, MO and Brad Foster,
Rhome, TX were able to take home the win at the #10.5 Heartland in Decatur, TX
on March 5th, 2022. This nephew- uncle team came out hot, winning the fast
times in both round 1 and 2, with a combined time of 13.49. With a clean run of
8.46 on their 3rd steer, they were ahead of the pack by almost 5
seconds heading into the short round. With most of the top 10 teams missing or
roping a leg in the short round, they had to rope 15.89 on their 4th
and final steer to beat the 8th high team back of Nolan Grint &
Jon Pudwill. They were able to do just that, squeaking by and roping 15.85 on
the last steer to finish with a 37.80 on 4 head. Combined, this family duo walked
away with $27,000, along with Cactus Saddlery Prize Saddles, Trophy Pads, and
Gist Silversmith HL Champion Buckles. Congratulations to all of the Heartland
winners who qualified for the Ariat WSTR Finale XVI.
