In Round 2, he rode Flashpoint (Teague Bucking Bulls, LLC) for 89.25 points. Round 3 gave him the highest score of the weekend, 90.5points, on RMEF Bugle (Robinson/Perry Bucking Bulls). Nunes placed second in the overall event standings, coming in right behind Meier, and adding $18,752.50 to his bank account.
Only two other cowboys managed to make the buzzer in the championship round other than Meier and Nunes. Beau Hill (West Glacier, Mont.) received the first 90-point ride of the evening after he stayed on Chicken on a Chain (Robinson/Tedesco/Larry the Cable Guy) for 90 points. Current #7 in the BFTS World Standings, Skeeter Kingsolver (Mclouth, Kans.) was the fourth rider to stay on in the short-go, riding Fat Lip (Circle T Ranch & Rodeo) for 84.75 points.
J.B. Mauney (Mooresville, N.C.) attempted to wow his hometown crowd with a draft pick of Code Blue. He almost made 8 seconds, but the official review from the judges stated that he didn't make the buzzer. Also, young rider Stormy Wing's wreck on Cajun Blast (Circle T Ranch & Rodeo) brought the arena to complete silence as he was carried out on a backboard. Wing received a concussion and is questionable to compete in next week's event in Oklahoma City.
McDonald (Col. Juarez, Mexico) and McKennon Wimberly (Cool, Texas) tied for third and fourth in Round 2. McDonald stayed on Outa Da Blue, owned by Circle T Ranch & Rodeo, while Wimberly made the buzzer on Jerome Davis Bucking Bulls' Off the Hook, both rides getting a score of 88 points.
