TRAVIS MAGUIRE WINS
Finals
&
BOTH YEAR-END
CHIEF RACE
M
FOR 2017
ovie star, bull rider, father, chief, and relay
racer—Travis Maguire, riding for O’kan
Warriors, in the CIRRA Chief race 2017 Finals and
Year-End Champion has followed his dream. He
might be a bull rider first and foremost, win-
ning many rodeos and attending the INFR seven
times. At 14-years he got on his first bull and
started riding at rodeos. The only injuries that
he suffered are from riding bulls--with a torn
triceps, broken ankle, and of course concussions.
This coming year he plans to focus on his bull
riding more, getting his Canadian PBR card, but is
sure he will find time to relay, Chief, and Warrior
race along the way.
Travis spent two months on and off working on
6
the movie, “The Revenant,” based in part on
Michael Punke’s 2002 novel, describing frontiers-
man Hugh Glass’s experiences in 1823, starring
Leonardo DiCaprio. The movie even had him
traveling to Argentina to work there.
High on his greatest achievement’s though of
course he is the proud father of 3-year old Kipp
Jorren Kyzer Maguire, that will be turning four
on July 6th. Nothing beats the time they spend
together and the fun of watching him grow up.
Maguire in 2016, traveled to the United States
and was the only Canadian that competed at the
Professional Indian Horse Racing finals in Billing,
Montana in the Warrior race and did well.
