Behind the Lens: Unleash The Beast Tucson 2024
Rookie standout Caden Bunch wasted little time in providing he's capable of competing on his own after tearing up the 2023 PBR Camping World Team Series campaign this summer. One of six riders on the weekend to produce a thrilling 3-for-3 showcase, Bunch edged out veterans Joao Ricardo Vieira and Sage Steele Kimzey by .5 points to earn his first premier series event title.
Fresh off capturing the world's largest gold buckle with the Texas Rattlers last month, JRV stayed hot in Tucson, Arizona, besting Nitty Gritty (85.75 points), Border Crisis (87.25 points) and Chateau Montelena's Montana Jacket (90 points) to earn the veteran 87 UTB points and a second-place tie. Ending the first event of the season with a matching aggregate score of 263 points, Kimzey, too, flashed in his debut, converting against all three of his bovine opponents (Texas Twister: 86 points, Off Campus: 88 points, Renegade: 89 points) en route to taking home 85.5 UTB points.
