HEADER DOMINATION-GEORGE STRAIT TEAM ROPING

I recently had a question asked to me about the header domination at the George Strait Roping. This person wanted to know why in the last few years the headers seem to win, or had a chance to win, 1st and 2nd. I said that I didn't know. But this question did bring about some thoughts on the subject. So I did a little investigating.

In 2008, Travis Tryan, won 1st and 2nd.
In 2007, Nick Sartain, won 1st and maybe should have won 2nd,
except for a questionable call by the field flagger.
In 2006, Speed Williams, won 1st and 2nd.
In 2005, Speed williams, won 1st and 4th.

Does seem to be a trend starting there, doesn't it?????????


First of all, maybe it is because the header is the quarterback of the team. In my opinion, he is about 85% to 90% of the team. In other words, he is the cake, and the heeler is the frosting. When the set-up suits one particular header, he is going to rope well. It might not really matter who is heeling, (the heelers all seem to rope really well), then that particular header has a chance to do really well.

Maybe it is because these guys are the best in the business, and it is only a matter of time before they have their chance to do really well.

Maybe it is because our sport is really starting to get to a point where it is a headers game, and the heelers are a dime a dozen.

On the flip side, some heelers have placed twice at this roping, Allen Bach, Clay O'Brien, Kory Koontz, to name a few.

Could be...........that the heeler is only as good as his header lets him be!!!!!!!!
Now that is an interesting thought and we could have an interesting discussion about that.

But we will save that one for a later date.

USTRC's CLASSIFICATION SYSTEM - HOW FAIR IS IT?

What were the main reasons behind the USTRC’s change to the TRIAD system? If I recall right, the change was supposed to create more space for low number team ropers, so they weren’t all lumped together in one number classification. They said there wasn’t enough room to classify them correctly. So they moved almost everyone two numbers. Then, most all of the ropers that supported them, got their numbers lowered, anyway. What is up with that?
Everyone says that the classification system is fair and even, everywhere. From state to state, all number 4's are supposed to be of equal ability. Well, I have roped enough, and been around enough, to know that is not true! Anyone who doesn’t believe that, needs to compare a # 4 in Texas, to a # 4 in Ohio, or anywhere else for that matter. There is no comparision!!!!!
I think, what they needed to say, was that there wasn’t enough room in Texas. In almost every other state, there is plenty of room. In most states, most of the ropers are numbered from best to worst, starting with the highest number possible, with no numbers skipped. This means that a roper classified as a #4 in Texas, might possibly be a #6 in some other state. Sometimes, there might need to be a few numbers skipped, between ropers, say from a #6 to a #4, with NO #5's in that state, but that doesn’t happen. If you were to see that happen, then you might could say that all ropers are numbered equally, all over the US. A #6 is a #6, anywhere, and a #4, is a #4.
Another thought, whatever happened to the idea, that as a roper improved they would move up in classification, and have to rope in higher numbered ropings? As it works now, most of them can wine a little bit about their raised number, and if they go to all USTRC’s ropings, they can get their number lowered back to where it was!!!!!
I don’t really think it is so much about your level of roping ability, as it is about how many times you are willing to enter and pay the $100 stock charge.
Just one roper’s opinion!

WHICH ROPE COMPANY MAKES THE BEST TEAM ROPING ROPE?

With all of the rope companies out there today, which ropes are best, and what do you like to use to team rope? Some of the rope companies are Cactus, Fastback, Rattler, Classic, Ropervision, Callaway, Sutton, Revolution, Running P, and Willard ropes, just to name the ones I know. There may be others that I don’t know. If you know of some others that I didn’t mention, let me know.
The two newest inventions to ropes, that I know of, deal with Ropervision and Revolution Rope Companies. The Ropervision Company introduced the Wax Free Rope. This rope is supposed to last longer, always feel the same, even in different weather conditions, and to not slide on the dally. I have tried these and they seem to do all they say. The Revolution Rope Company came out with the tip accelerator rope. It was designed so the roper could feel the tip better. I hear that you send them your loop size, and they put extra weight in the tip, for your size of loop. That way, your tip always has the most weight. Now, I haven’t tried these ropes, and am very anxious for someone, who has used them, to get in touch with me to let me know how they like them.
In any case, I would like for you to let me know what ropes you like best.

WHAT IS YOUR HEADING TARGET?

In team roping, when you are heading steers, what is your target? Some headers look at the right horn. Others look at the left horn. Some look in between the horns, while others look at the whole head. This is one question that you can ask many different headers, and get many different answers. So, which one is right? All of them. Some of them. None of them. I heard, once upon a time, to visualize the head as a 55 gallon drum barrel. Made sense to me, so this is what I do. What do you watch? Let us all know. Maybe, we should take some kind of poll, or survey?

Best Team Roping Instructor? Best Team Roping School?

Who is the best team roping instructor out there? What about their roping schools, or videos? A few to choose from, off the top of my head, are Walt Woodard, Allen Bach, Rickey Green, Clay O’Brien Cooper, Jake Barnes, Speedy Williams, Rich Skelton, Bret Tonozzi, Jay Ellerman, Britt Bockius, or Tyler Magnus. Maybe, you can think of others I haven’t listed. Let me know what you think, and why, if you want. Remember, this site is about opinions, none will be turned away. In the process, it might help someone to pick a good roping school for them to attend.

New Rodeo and Team Roping Links

I have added a few links to the site from the rodeo and team roping world. I will be adding others in the near future. If you have any other site suggestions that you would like to see on this site, let me know.

TEAM ROPERS!!!!!!!! IF YOU DON'T HAVE AN OPINION, DON'T VISIT HERE!!!!

We will discuss anything on this site: team roping, rodeo schedules, rodeo results, roping schedules, roping results, rodeo associations, PRCA, USTRC, team roping schools, team roping instructors, tack, ropes, scoring, trucks, trailers, roping dummies, gas prices, additives, greenhouse effects, or anything else that you want to discuss.

IN OTHER WORDS:
If you can think of IT, we will talk about IT!!!

I wanted to create a blog that team ropers could come to and vent about things that were on their minds. They could come here and get good information about there passion. We will try to keep up with standings and schedules from the rodeo and roping world. We also want to give you information on roping schools and their instructors.
However, we would also like to discuss other things that we run into, like gas prices, and what we can do to help ourselves. Things like this factor directly into our sport, as we have to put gas, or diesel, into our trucks and horse trailers, to do what we love. At $3.50 a gallon you just can’t travel as far from home, as you used to be able to.
