I’m a beginner at true roping and I would just love to thank you for your time and sharing your expertise about your craft. I truly enjoyed all of your explanations and seems to me that you are as good as anyone else. Probably better than most. Your methods seem to make perfect sense to me. Thank you again and may God Bless you and keep you safe!!!!

Heck yeh! Get it girl!

I appreciate your information and attention to detail I’m this video. You helped me a lot in just a few minutes. However, I tend to favor a rope pan rather than a rope bag. Do you have any thoughts on this? Also, do you powder your ropes? Would you mind sharing with me the types of ropes you prefer and use? Thank you for you time.

Where can I buy a rope like that?

[@robertedunn4874]

How do you recommend to stretch a rope if you don't have a horse; what do recommend for a roping glove

As a woman, what is your personal preference on head ropes? Also, is there a particular reason why most women head closer to the hip instead of staying wide? I for some reason can't seem to feel the tip of my rope until I feed or have a big loop. Any feedback or info is appreciated. I was taught to rope by a calf roper, so I am trying to change my old habits. I rope great on the dummy while staying out, but I seem to fall apart on live steers. Thanks

[@edgarparrish2792]

What rope would you recommend for a beginner roper med soft hard

[@norm_badwolf_9119]

I’m no expert, but I started with a medium and it seems to work great for me.

No idea what "I'm a #4" means.

[@coleheaton6891]

It’s a way of ranking in team roping. So pros don’t go to small jackpots and just steal money.
