At the 18th Annual World Championship Ranch Rodeo in Amarillo, Texas, the Sandhill Cattle Co. out of Earth, Texas, walked away victorious.

I don’t think we’re any better than any other cowboy here, it just happened to be our day.” Taking second was the Lonesome Pine Ranch of Cedar Point, Kan., and team member Chris Potter took home Top Hand.
