Cowboy Militia Pro Team fires up
Dallas, TX - Cowboy Militia is proud to sponsor its expanding Pro Team, including three of today's hottest ropers and riders:
Colin McTaggart
A rising star in the Professional Bull Riders and Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, 24-year-old Colin McTaggart took the bull riding world by storm in 2007 when he qualified for his first Wrangler National Finals Rodeo and in 2008 when he went to his second as that year's Extreme Bulls Finals reserve champ. He's lived in central California and in Sin City itself, where he'll return to pursue his marketing degree.
In the meantime, he's earned a quarter of a million dollars already as one of Cowboy Militia's quintessential consumers: a driven athlete with a quest to be the best - who loves wake surfing and snowboarding and listening to Lil Wayne when he's on the road.
"The NFR is everybody's dream and I'm going to be working at getting those gold buckles for the trophy case," he says.
The Cooper boys
There's possibly no more infamous name in roping circles than Cooper. The three sons of eight-time ProRodeo Hall of Famer "Super Looper" Roy Cooper are making their own names in the sport they've lived since birth.
Clint Cooper, 27, is a two-time NFR qualifier who has already amassed nearly a half-million dollars roping and tying calves. He's on track to go to his third NFR this December, as is littlest brother Tuf, now 19, who woke the world up in December 2008 on the Cowboy Militia team as he tied one in 6.7 seconds to win Round Nine and prove his worth as the 2008 Overall PRCA Rookie of the Year.
Clif Cooper, 21, is the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association's Southwestern Region tie-down roping champion and will compete June 14-20 at the College National Finals Rodeo in Casper, Wyo., along with traveling partner and Cowboy Militia man Shane Hanchey, 19, who is currently the PRCA's leader for 2009 Rookie of the Year. Hanchey and Clint Cooper are leading the PRCA's Heartland Tour standings, as well!
Cowboy Militia is a perfect fit with the three boys' penchant for dedication, winning, and living large.
