2020 Montana Pro Rodeo Circuit Finalist Tammy Jo Carpenter
Which horse(s) are you taking to the finals?
Lion On Fire (Scorch) and PC Sun Streaks “Obie” (2006 AQHA Bay Gelding by A Streak Of Fling x PC Sun Dew by Sun Frost, South Dakota Bred, PESI Enrolled)
 
What is your horse(s)' style when running barrels and what's unique or fun about their personality?
Both are push style horses. When Scorch feels good, he throws his head in the air. He continuously unties himself.
Obie is very laid back, but takes his job very seriously.
 
What are some favorite memories/highlights and obstacles you faced getting to the 2020 circuit finals?
I’m grateful that many rodeo committees were able to produce great rodeos this year. 2020 was unique in that every rodeo I went to had several world champions on the list. The travel was challenging and the competition was tough.
 
When you're headed to the rodeo what do you listen to: inspirational podcasts, music, audio books?
Any music I can sing along with.
