Private Notes
In this episode, 14 top cowboys from previous seasons return to the Arizona desert to compete for a $50,000 herd of cattle. The cowboys must decide whether to help or sabotage their fellow contestants.
The 13 remaining cowboys face off in individual and team challenges in the quest to win a $50,000 herd of cattle and a coveted belt buckle. As bitter rivalries emerge in the first individual challenge, some contestants begin to understand that strategy and gamesmanship may be just as important as cowboy skills. Later, in a test of true grit, the contestants split into teams to gather a herd of bucking horses in treacherous mountain terrain and drive them three miles into an arena, where two of the broncs must be ridden for eight seconds. The competition suddenly turns perilous when one of the cowboys goes missing in the unforgiving Arizona desert, causing serious concern for host Trace Adkins and his expert judges.

Cowboys need brawn and brains, so the remaining 11 contestants are tested on both; they first guess the cost of common ranch items, then must endure a grueling overnight challenge guarding a herd of cattle.
With nine cowboys remaining, the competition gets fierce; an old-fashioned horse race turns into an all-out brawl; a cowboy is rushed to the hospital after a freak accident; host Trace Adkins and the judges send another cowboy home.
After demonstrating their calf-roping skills, the eight remaining cowboys are challenged to drive a herd of cattle and an old-fashioned chuck wagon across the rugged Arizona terrain; host Trace Adkins and his judges send another cowboy packing.
The remaining seven contestants must demonstrate skill and grit in a grueling relay race made up of a series of cowboy challenges; host Trace Adkins and his judges send another cowboy home.
The remaining six cowboys face off in a cutting competition that turns out to be more difficult than expected; they work as a team to sort four rogue cattle from a herd and load them on a trailer; host Trace Adkins and the judges send a cowboy home.
In the final cattle drive of the season, the three remaining cowboys have one last chance to show off their skills and prove they deserve to be the Ultimate Cowboy All-Star Champion. Host Trace Adkins and the expert judges name the winner.
