Where Do YOU Want to Go for Cowboy Christmas?

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]

World’s Oldest Rodeo Prescott Frontier Days Prescott,

July is “Cowboy Christmas” in the rodeo world. Cowboy Christmas is the busiest time of the year for rodeos with big money payouts on the way to the National Finals Rodeo.

Cowboy Christmas is the time of year cowboys spend a lot of money to win a little money.

Rodeo contestants are a patriotic crew, the National Anthem is never kneeled for, hats fly off to be held over hearts and 4th of July is a big deal!

With over seventy-one (71) big rodeos with top prize money held during the month of July, an aggressive winning streak over what’s affectionately known as Cowboy Christmas changes everything in PRCA Top 15. With just a few months left in the regular season, Wrangler National Finals Rodeo qualifications can and will be cemented with a good Cowboy Christmas run!

Winning Several of These Rodeos is on EVERY Cowboy’s Wish List:

About the Author:

Patrick OD O'Donnell

Biography:

The moment a bull's gate swings open—that's when Patrick "OD" O'Donnell feels most alive. From his early days riding bareback through Arizona pastures to revolutionizing the bull riding industry as President of Bull Riders Only, OD has lived the Western lifestyle he now champions as Founder of Cowboy Lifestyle Network. Growing up in Casa Grande's sunbaked agricultural heartland, he didn't just learn about horses and ranching, he lived it daily, developing the instincts and grit that would later attract 4 million followers to CLN's authentic voice.

After his baseball days at the University of Arizona, OD saw something others missed: bull riding wasn't just a sport, but was compelling entertainment waiting for the right vision. Between 1990-1997, his leadership transformed local rodeo competitions into sold-out arena events that changed Western sports forever. Today, that same pioneering spirit drives CLN's coverage of everything from championship rodeos to the quiet heroism of ranch life. When he's not building the digital home for cowboy culture, you'll find OD supporting Harris Brothers Charity Foundation, leading CLN’s 25-year Christmas Toy Drive for Arizona kids, or sharing his love of horsemanship with special needs riders through Arizona's own Horses Help. Living proof that authentic Western values still have the power to transform lives.
