Learn to rope: What Practice Dummies and Why. Ep. 5. Heel-O-Matic Full Practice

[@edwardkimball596]

Amazing! I’m 75yo, Learned to rope in the 60’s. So much has changed. I was never a rodeo competitor but I did help out at branding time in Long Creek, OR. I would swing my loop over my head counterclockwise or clockwise depending on where the horse & I were to the calf & whether I was going for the head or heels. Local cowboys sorta teased me about that but not too much ‘cause I got good results. Loved the way you explained things, colored lariats, “artificial stock” & beautiful bay horse. Love this technology. Good job!!

do you still cowboy

[@edwardkimball596]

@@mihakabercic4457 thanks for asking. I’m 76yo & my body is falling apart. Cowboy days are long behind me. However, I take advantage of a military veterans program at an equine therapy ranch in Manor, TX. I ride & then serenade various horses as an amateur classical guitar player. Amazing experience. Horses’ reactions have enlightened me. ‘Nuff said for now.

I am french and love your démonstration on dummy verry good. Thanks you.

[@brandonpropterhoc]

Thanks man for taking your time to explain everything. I love watching your videos. I wish i started roping earlier in life but i cant wait to start this summer. Ill make sure to keep coming back to watch!

[@drustew]

Alex, on the ground when you are starting you want to almost be able to hit the horns with your loop when you are swinging. Then to catch all you have to do is extend your arm or take a small step forward. So pretty close. On the machine you want your horses nose about even with the middle of the steer or the steers hip. Not too far back. You never ever want to be directly behind the steer. Make sure you are off to the left about a step.

[@SouthTexasHunter361]

can it be the right too?

[@josephreinsch143]

I’m a header and I’m new to your channel I appreciate all the info

[@ariannestowe9558]

i made my on rope and im teaching my self how to rope so im watching all your videoes

[@nmelkhunter1]

This is a great video, especially the camera work from the back of the horse. I am very visual learner and I wish I could have had angles like that to learn from when I was starting out.

[@austinroberts2802]

Hey man I’m making my own roping dummy for ground work and want to know how high the head should be off the ground and how much space to leave between the back feet and the ground for heeling. Thanks for the great Videos!

[@JdFord30005000]

Thanks man

[@desertcactus9052]

Good stuff thanks Pal 🙏

[@cwmundo]

I have watched all your video's, they are GOOD! You have helped me ALOT.! Thank You! I have roped the dummy for way too long! About 30 years! I have recently lost a bunch of weight (60 lbs) and FINALLY I am getting ready to actually do the damn thing! I don't want to admit it! but, I am pretty nervous! There are SEVERAL things on my mind, BUT... My question is this... although I am alot lighter! I am still a big guy! 260-70 lbs x 5-10. I want to heel. What size horse (approximately) would you suggest? I am gonna buy one real soon. Any suggestions? Thank You Again!

[@Copperhounddog]

Cody Whitlow whatever you find out on the horses. Let me know. I’m in the same boat. 260-270 5’9”

[@mechanicallyinclinedthough4586]

You could really get any farelly big and muscular quarter horse and always be fine good to see more ropers gettin into it

[@donavonkreyssig9282]

Little late but I’m 6’0 and 270 my head horse is 16.1 hands . But I have a regular ole heel prospect that’s 15 hands they both do the job

[@buckstitched]

Why are you tracking your horse to the left of the steer when you're heeling?

[@andressuarezrios7524]

Hola, saludos que tipo de soga o Manila es esa??

[@anatoscano1254]

How much are those

[@Cuz556]

What lay is this rope you are using in this video

[@ismaelmartinezcortes3743]

Sorry for question but I wanna know which dummy is better to practice a dummy with moviment in legs or dummies with nor moviment ?

[@HuskyNut78]

How come we didn't get to see you rope the time machine or hot heels in the video?

[@billwillis5051]

How much would you take for ol bay you're riding in this video. I sure like him a lot!!!

[@laperic1]

Love the videos amd all the tips you are giving us. Got a question. I am a beginner heeler and when I throw most of the time my whole loop will go flying all the way out to the left passing in front of the back leg not setting a trap. What do I need to do ?

[@kirbyhales1142]

Do they have a shock n awe heel rope? Or is it just a MS head rope?

[@HuskyNut78]

You didn't rope the time machine or the hot heels in the video, the whole video was about the heel o matic?

[@lesleybrannan9537]

what kind of rope are you using there

[@lynettehargrave6456]

A 4 k 100

[@JdFord30005000]

I'm starting out heading and I was wondering about how far back are you roping the steer on an average run?

[@maxsanchez2339]

As a heeler I think a dummy that you can catch out of time can do more harm than good.

[@julianocassio1]

who and what position best left-handed?

[@coltersnook2304]

JULIANO RODRIGUES there is very very few left handed people in rodeo. Like I know of no one ever roping professionally left handed but there are some . If there is a left handed person they are more than likely a healer.

[@LeeFifield]

Thank you for using the device and not a living Donkey, thank you

[@hunterbraniff2509]

Hot heels and heel o matic are 2 different things
