Pueblo, CO (January 7, 2019) – American Bucking Bull Inc. (ABBI) will bring back the two-year-old Futurity Series that will once again include 100% payback and more than $300,000 in prize money.
“We strive to provide the best opportunities to allow members to show off their bucking stock and the Futurity Series is definitely one of those events.” said Jay Daugherty, ABBI Executive Director. “We had a great response to the Futurity Series last year and wanted to give our members another chance to participate.
There will be three mandatory regular season events, each with a $300 side pot entry fee requirement. Futurity Series bulls must compete in the regular futurity event at each stop. Tier B events are excluded. These side pot events will determine which bulls will go in the main payout and the non-money winner payout during the Finale.
In June, there will be a finale event held at the Bordertown Casino & Arena in Wyandotte, Oklahoma, with a $300,000 payout as long as all 100 competition spots are filled. All payouts will be based on how many total bulls have been entered. The Top 10 spots will be paid out in both the Money Winner Finale Payout and the Non-Money Winner Finale Payout.

100 current two-year-old bulls will have a chance at competing in the 2019 Futurity Series, on a first come, first serve basis. Anyone interested in entering a bull, call Rebecca at (719) 242-2747 ext. 3323 to reserve your spot.
Once you have committed to a spot you are obligated for the entire payment regardless of injury or if the bull has deceased. Once the bulls have been named there will be no changes or substitutes. If a bull is injured and cannot compete at any of the designated stops, you are still required to pay the $300 side pot fee to keep the pot whole. You will also not be eligible for the non-winner pot at the finale if the bull is able to then compete regardless of your placing at any of the events and the bull will have to compete in the winner pot during the finale.
ABBI is proud to partner with some of the leading companies in the entertainment, ranching, agriculture and western lifestyle industries. Please contact Jay Daugherty at +1 (719) 242-2747 if you'd like to be a part of our corporate family.
