The summer run is pushing onward, and with approximately two months left in the 2023 regular season, there are still big earning opportunities for ProRodeo athletes at events such as the Fiesta Days in Spanish Fork and Ogden Pioneer Days in Utah as well as California Rodeo Salinas.

The Breakaway Roping Journal has ProRodeo coverage across the board, from the circuit races to Resistol rookie updates, world standings shakeups and instructional material from Breakawayroping.com coaches.

*NOTE: Due to the chaos with the PRCA system, getting the results has been a bit of a struggle. We are doing our best to keep you covered on the happenings on the West Coast.

California Salinas Rodeo, Salinas, California

July 20–23, 2023

Added money: $40,000

California Rodeo Salinas has more money added in the breakaway ($40,000) than they paid out to breakaway ropers in 2022. The committee’s effort has drawn athletes such as Taylor Munsell, Samantha Fulton and Kami Landolfi to the event. The three ladies each rode Munsell’s palomino “Ray,” with Fulton and Munsell sitting No. 1 and No. 2 in the average—and Landolfi is not far behind.

According to Munsell, Ray’s ability to take two ropers who had never ridden him and score cleanly on six total runs is a testament to his versatility.
