Feild passed away from pancreatic cancer in Feb. 2016, but his accomplishments in the rodeo arena will never be erased from the record books. The PRCA Rookie of the Year in 1980, Feild was the first roughstock cowboy since Larry Mahan in 1973 to earn a World All-Around Title. He won three of them consecutively (1985, 1986 and 1987), in addition to two world bareback riding crowns (1985 and 1986). In 1990, Feild became the first roughstock cowboy to win $1 million in career earnings before retiring in 1991. He was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in 1992. He is also a three-time winner of the Linderman Award, which is given to the cowboy who earns the most money competing on both ends of the arena (timed events on one side and rough-stock on the other side).
