Bradi Good was a Texas high school barrel racing champion, but breakaway was always the event she wanted.
The Abilene, Texas, cowgirl comes from ropers. Her grandfather, Billy Frank Good, made the Steer Roping Finals, and her father, Shay Good, roped calves and steers and made the Steer Roping Finals three times. Shay won the champion steer roping saddle at Cheyenne Frontier Days in 2015.
From Junior to the Breakaway Box
Through high school she ran barrels on Quick Aint Fair—“Junior”—a horse owned by Judi Reed. She won the Texas High School Rodeo Association Finals in 2018 and 2019, was reserve at the National High School Finals Rodeo in 2018, and finished fifth in 2021 and third in 2022 at the College National Finals Rodeo.
“To me, breakaway was always the main event,” Good told The Breakaway Roping Journal in 2024. “Barrel racing came really natural to me so I did it for as long as I could, but with breakaway taking off in the ProRodeo world—and you can’t really do both—I had to pick and choose.”
Her first big breakaway win came at the Windy Ryon Memorial Roping in 2019, before she could ProRodeo.
“That win lit a fire in me that, ‘Okay, I can compete with these ladies.’”
Rango and the 2021 Cheyenne Debut
Cheyenne Frontier Days added breakaway in 2021, and Good was there for it on Oh Gotta Player—“Rango”—a sorrel gelding she bought from Timber Moore. She was 4.4 in slack and 4.1 to win her performance, and she made the barrel racing semifinals at the same rodeo, second in her performance on a mare called Gracie.
“This is my first time competing here and they just added breakaway. I’ve always dreamed of roping here,” she said.
Days earlier, at the fromer WCRA Days of ’47 Cowboy Games and Rodeo in Utah, she won the third semifinal performance in 2.58 for $1,600 in the mud after a thunderstorm. She went on to the bronze medal.
“I know that my horse is a mud horse, so I just took the best shot that I could, and it worked out.”
She won the same performance there in 2022 in 3.11.
“[Rango] is one of the fastest horses out there going, and he’s so quick across the line that he excels at long scores like Cheyenne and Salinas. He’s super free and never takes my throw away. I just love him,” she said in 2024.

Eighth in the World in 2023
In 2023 she hauled with Shelby Boisjoli-Meged and Kendal Pierson. Good finished the regular season No. 8 with $95,277 and Pierson qualified too.
“Hauling with Shelby last year was huge. I think it’s part of why Kendal [Pierson] and I made our first Finals. Shelby started the summer pretty far ahead, so it made me and Kendal rope better. We kept momentum going all summer.”
At her first National Finals Breakaway Roping she finished second in the average with 26.2 seconds on eight head. She left with $112,178 and an eighth-place world finish.
She doesn’t rope for one big check.
“I would say I am more of an average, long-score roper.”

Out in 2024
She opened 2024 with a bigger target.
“This year I want to be inside the top five and give myself a chance at a gold buckle.”
She won Dodge City, Kansas, that August, 2.8 and 2.7 for $4,405. But she went into Sioux Falls about $3,200 short of the last spot, and the 2024 NFBR went on without her.
Houston, Calgary and a Second Finals
She came back in 2025 on the biggest stage of the winter. At RodeoHouston she tied Taylor Munsell at 3.3 in the semifinals, then went 2.8 in the Championship Shootout. Munsell was 2.7, and Good was reserve champion with $30,000.
At the first Calgary Stampede breakaway in July, she won the second and third rounds of her pool in 2.6 and 2.4 for $7,000 apiece, then was 2.4 in the short round to make the shootout.
Over Cowboy Christmas she won $15,140 at three rodeos, No. 3 in our tally for the run. That included a three-way split of the win at Cody, Wyoming, with Josie Conner and Suzanne Williams, all 2.3 for $7,623 apiece.

She closed the regular season No. 14 with $100,080, less than $100 ahead of Macy Young for the last spot, and made her second NFBR. It had moved to Fort Worth, and she had two horses ready for it: Rango and a younger gelding, Roofie.
“To me, Roofie gets in his stop a little earlier than Rango. Rango goes through my throw and is a little freer,” she told us that December.
“I think I’m going to start off the NFBR on Rango, and something happens or I need the go-round win I’ll get on Roofie. He’s my go-round horse for sure.”
She placed in six rounds, was 2.1 in each of the last two and finished the year 12th in the world with $124,695.
Where She Stands
In mid-September she was No. 20, $10,639 out of the top 15. She placed in the first round and the short round at Pendleton, Oregon, and split third in the average there, then went 2.0 to win at home in Abilene and added a check at Mandan, North Dakota—$13,388 for the week.
She was No. 17 when she got to the Cinch Playoffs Governor’s Cup in Sioux Falls, South Dakota. In the semifinal she broke the barrier, was 12.3 with the penalty and still took the fourth and last spot in the final. There she was 2.4 and split second and third with Martha Angelone for $21,500 apiece.
That was $22,230 for the week and a jump from No. 17 to No. 10. Good finished the 2026 regular season No. 10 with $111,857 and is headed to her third NFBR.
