Duvall 44th Jackpot a success
By Rodney Haltom sports EDITOR,

The 2023 Duvall Family Jackpot was a huge success this past weekend as hundreds of steer wrestling fans filled the Checotah Round-Up Club arena. Over 500 fans came out to enjoy the wonderful family atmosphere and see some of the best steer wrestlers in the world compete.

“We survived the 44th anniversary of the Duvall Jackpot with no hitches this year and had a good turnout despite all the rain on Friday. We had a total of 182 entries for the weekend. We were a qualifying event for the Hooey Jr. Patriot, WCRA, Ote Berry Junior Steer Wrestling World Championship, and the American. We want to thank all our sponsors and workers that give so much to help us continue to host this annual event,” Jenny Duvall said.

“This is just wonderful to see all the people out here. We have cowboys from across the nation and Brazil here today and it looks like everyone is having a great time,” Imogene Duvall.
