Luke Branquinho is a seventh-generation rancher from California’s central coast, but he’s best known as a five-time World Champion Steer Wrestler and a 14-time National Finals Rodeo qualifier. In this episode, we dive into his legendary rodeo career, his 2023 induction into the Pro Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame, and what led his family to make the move to Texas.

We also talk about Luke’s transition from competition to television, and—excitingly—his return to the arena in 2025 at The American. Luke is one of the most genuine, respected individuals in our industry, and it was an honor to have him share his journey, insights, and some great stories.

Thanks for tuning in—hope you enjoy the conversation, and God bless!
