Jon Wood went home on The Road, Season 1, Episode 3. He performed “Should've Been a Cowboy” by Toby Keith, but landed in the bottom two alongside Forrest McCurren. Both had strong moments especially Forrest’s original opening lyrics, but audience ratings put Jon at risk. Final decision: Jon was voted off by Blake Shelton and Keith Urban. Urban said Forrest “had the edge,” citing crowd connection. Jon kept his head high after the elimination, saying, “I don’t feel like I necessarily lost at all. I had a good time out here.” No twist. No immunity. Just a straight-up choice by the judges after crowd voting.
