Ep. 50 - Blazing Trails with Devan Reilly

When Devan Reilly realized that his college of choice in Casper, Wyoming, didn't have his sports of football or wrestling, the former standout high school athlete decided to try the sport of rodeo. A native of Sheridan, Devan didn't have the funds necessary to buy a saddle for saddle bronc and didn't have a desire to be chased by bulls. He did have a love for legendary cowboy and country music singer Chris LeDoux and, just like LeDoux, Devan became a bareback bronc rider. He would be more like his idol than he originally thought however as, in 2017, he started using his voice to share his love of the western lifestyle, rodeo, guided hunting, and war heroes through his Blazing Trails podcast. Today, Devan is a Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association bareback bronc rider, guided hunter, and hobby rodeo podcaster. Read more at www.ThatWesternLife.com/Podcast/Episode50.
