Tyson Durfey Bio

I was born on November 27, 1983 in Savannah, MO. I currently live in Colbert, WA on the FAB ranch. Living there lets me get up, walk to the arena and start practicing as early or as late as I want. My professional calf roping career began in 2003. Since then I've had 2 NFR qualifications, 3 CFR qualifications, 3 DNCFR qualifications, and I've been crowned the Canada Finals Rodeo Champion twice, in 2006 and 2008.
