Wellby puts on show for crowd
A MASSIVE crowd at Savannah in the Round enjoyed one of the region’s best bull riding events last Thursday night, with local cowboy Braydon Wellby stealing the show once again.
Wellby has continued his dominant form, taking out the Open Bullride in the second-last round of the Great Northern Bullriding Series in front of a massive festival crowd.
With not many competitors able to ride time on the tough stock, spectators went crazy as Wellby put on a special show and made it look all too easy.
The chairs, stands, and open spaces around the arena were packed to the brim with hundreds, if not thousands, of keen onlookers hoping to catch a glimpse of the action.
The Great Northern Series finals will be held next month on 8 November at the Atherton Showgrounds. For more information or to secure tickets for the big event, visit https://events.humanitix.com/gnbs25-finals
