NCHA LOPER OF THE YEAR AWARD ANNOUNCEMENT

Sep 25, 2023, 09:10 AM by National Cutting Horse Association

Brad Pryor and the NCHA are teaming up to invest in that same hard work, grit and determination they see in the lopers of the NCHA by honoring the top Loper of the Year.

FORT WORTH – Rafter P Construction is the leading design build construction company in the farm and ranch industry. President and owner, Brad Pryor, founded the culture of his company with hard work, grit and determination as the backbone. He got his start at a very young age working in the farm & ranch industry. He personally understands the dedication and drive it takes to accomplish goals when all the cards are stacked against you.

This December, Brad Pryor and the NCHA are teaming up to invest in that same hard work, grit and determination they see in the lopers of the NCHA by honoring the top Loper of the Year. This special loper will be awarded a Loper of the Year buckle and a check in the amount of $5,000 as a thank you for the tireless work he/she pours into this sport day in and day out. 

When discussing his passion for honoring the Loper of the Year, Brad Pryor states, “it’s the least I can do to give back to the backbone of the NCHA.”

“The NCHA is proud to partner with Brad Pryor at Rafter P Construction to recognize the hardworking men and women behind the scenes in the cutting world. Having the right person on the right horse makes the difference of a lifetime before a show. The diligent hard work of lopers in and outside of the arena represent the characteristics that the NCHA was founded upon. Therefore, we would like to acknowledge and celebrate this year’s Loper of the Year” said Jay Winborn, Executive Director of the NCHA.
