THE

I

t’s been a long, slow, slide for rodeo, team roping, and the likes over the past few years… and by direct correlation… all commerce tied to these sports. The answer most sought by insiders of the industry, is, “Where are we now?” The search seems to be on to find that one magic indicator from which the current status and/or the future can be based.

“Are we still in the slide?”… “Have we seen the worst?” …Is the rebound on?”

No question, it’s the dominant subject for those tied to these sports for a while now, and in literally dozens of conversations I’ve been a part of over the past few years, I’ve heard a wide range of reasoning and pontification to explain where we are. Some are just wacky, while others come complete with graphics showing complex, theoretical market progression analysis… whatever the hell that is.

Alas, I’m pretty simple I guess… because to find out if the water is hot or cold, to me, the best way seems to just touch it. If it burns, it’s hot…if you could use it to cool down your soda, it’s cold. I don’t need to graph it out. Not that it isn’t a complicated dynamic with a whole bunch of contributing factors, it’s just that contestants are either entering or they’re not, which means they either can afford to, or they can’t. No amount of marketing or strategy is going to change that.

That said, I think last year was the “turnaround” year, and had it not been for the Cover: Joe’s Boot Shop and Justin Brands Open Tie-Down Roping Champion, Kyle Dutton of Los Lunas, New Mexico

EHV-1 outbreak exactly one year ago which pretty much sabotaged a season just as it was heading into the first, big, summer holiday, the year would have ended up much better.

I also think that fuel prices play a big role.

Even beyond the fact that it makes every road trip more expensive which leaves less for entry fees, I think the psychological impact is huge. I know when I see the sign announcing the price, and the first number is a four, it just feels a lot worse than when it starts with a three….but again…I’m kind of simple.

But the truth…the real truth as to current state of things, is most accurately told by those who are directly tied to the transaction of the almighty entry fee itself. To be more specific, the ones on the side of that transaction that actually need to make a profit to keep going… the producers/contractors.

And it’s not what they say. Let’s be honest…

I have been around a lot of these guys, some of them I even consider good friends, but when it comes to producing events and what is good or bad for them and/or their customers… .their words aren’t always what I would term, “bankable.”

What is, however, are their actions…and THAT, is the “tell.”

It seems so obvious now that I feel kind of stupid that I didn’t recognize it before. I guess I was so focused on looking at what producers WERE doing, that I didn’t notice what they WEREN’T doing….That is until they have now started doing it again.

Of course, I’m referring to their return to sniping/griping about other producers and the like. continued on page 7

he name Kyle Dutton is probably unfamiliar to typical rodeo fan. Even in calf roping circles, the Dutton name is probably better known for quality bits and silver work rather than for performance in the arena. But after winning the Joe’s Boot Shop and Justin Brands Open on April 29 at the Curry County Events Center, in Clovis, New Mexico, Kyle Dutton will no longer be traveling under the radar.

In his biggest payday as a calf roper, the Los Lunas, New Mexico native put together four rock solid runs in a field of 84 that included the defending world champion, 17 pros with National Finals Rodeo experience and a host of intercollegiate and rising stars. Dutton roped four in 39.46 to earn $4,886 in the average. He also placed third in Round 2, sixth in Round 3 and third in the championship round, picking up additional winnings each time. He finished the day with $7,539 in cash.

“It was very exciting to say the least,” said Dutton, who has fielded a solid stream of phone calls and text messages since the 8th annual JBS Open ended. “It’s really the first time I’ve had any luck at Joe’s roping.

It was like something has always gone wrong in the past.”

“This time I held everything together. I tried to make solid runs and be smart on the ground. I never drew anything exceptional, but nothing really bad. I was fortunate to be able to use them as good as I could have hoped.”

It was also his biggest payday in the arena, although, making the Dodge Circuit Finals in 2009 may still rank as the top memory for the former New Mexico high school and collegiate star at Eastern New Mexico.

Dutton’s 29.12 on three left him second behind former world All-Around champion Ryan Jarrett. With the top 15 going to the championship round, Dutton would rope next to last, just ahead of Jarrett, who was fastest on three at 27.34. The short round at the JBS was nothing new for Jarrett, who won the title in 2010. Also in the short round was Jesse Clark of Portales, NM, who had won the JBS crown in 2011, as well as legendary Brent Lewis and current and former collegiate stars Reese Reimer,

George Rowland, Cimarron Boardman, Quay Howard and Monty Eakin.

Giovanni Davis of College Station, Texas took the early lead, posing a 8.41 from the 14th callback position for 44.47 on four.

That held onto the lead through the next eight runs, Ryan Jarrett in Action during the Pro Match at the JBS 2012 event which included a barrier for Chris Neal and five no times, including one from Clark, who was in the six hole. off when Jarrett pulled his slack.

But Boardman moved him Dutton, who has fielded a solid stream immediately on the next run, using a 10.03 of phone calls and text messages since the to move to first with 41.12 on four. Reimer, 8th annual JBS Open ended, said the win the Stinnett.

Waiting in the wings was Jarrett, another big segment of the market. He still whose time on three was 1.78 seconds makes all the major retail shows and stays faster than Dutton’s. busy in the shop, so he ropes when he can.

Dutton made the smart play, making “No more than I go, I’m probably never solid 10.34 run on a good, average calf. The going to be a household name,” said Dutton time left him at 39.46, the first sub-40 time during a break in his custom shop. and the leader with just one six-time And he’s not offended if someone called WNFR qualifier left to rope.

His “I don’t think anyone who put their Open runs had been two eights and a 10. Only Jarrett was left.

Dutton was guaranteed second, but the fact that Jarrett had more than 12 seconds to rope his final calf had to weigh on his mind. However, one of the million things that can happen in a calf roping run happened.

Jarrett’s calf was “lowheaded” and moved to the left, away from the right-handed roper. Jarrett reached and as a result, his loop was a little flat.

The rope settled over the calf’s eyes, but failed to go over the Joe’s Boot Shop and Justin Brands Open Tie-Down Roping nose. The “top knot” popped Champion, Kyle Dutton

In retrospect, it’s hard to imagine not noticing it’s absence, but then I guess you don’t notice the absence of that squalling kid in the seat on the plane right behind you, until he again starts squalling halfway through the plane ride.

Oddly, for me, the whole planet seemed to feel as though it was returning to its normal orbit, when over the past couple of months roping producers once again returned to their “Date Wars”…those wars where each claims ownership of a specific date on the calendar to host an event…and the

war between rodeo contractors and sanctioning bodies, engaging head to head over the endless, “open” vs. ”sanctioned” designation.

I can honestly say that those are two debates I never thought I’d be glad to see return, and no doubt I’ll be more tolerable in being subjected to the pleadings on both sides of the arguments. I hope I’m reminded down the road when caught up in such a battle of days when there was such little activity that there were no battle at all…..

T

he 2012 Chuck Sheppard Memorial Roping and the Yavapai County Mounted Sheriff’s Posse’s 58th annual Scholarship Fund Roping kicked into gear in Prescott Rodeo Grounds over May 1113, 2012. This years event was a second year combined effort of two great events, the Chuck Sheppard Memorial and the Yavapai County Mounted Sheriff’s Posse’s Scholarship Fund Roping. Just over 650 ropers made their way to Prescott, where the Sheriffs Posse had the help of Jack Fuller to produce the event.

This year concluded 58 years for the scholarship roping where all of the money from the three days of roping go towards the posse’s scholarship fund. The fund is designed to give assistance to high school graduates in Yavapai County so they can afford their college expenses. The Memorial side of the event honors the deceased Sheppard, an Arizona native born in 1916 who was a Pro Rodeo Cowboys Association (PRCA) Hall of Fame cowboy.

He made contributions to pro rodeo as a director and judge of numerous large rodeos across the West. He also loved watching the Prescott Frontier Days Rodeo, his favorite rodeo, until his death in 2005.

The first Chuck Sheppard Memorial took place in 2007, and the participation and spectatorship for it has grown ever since.

Perfect 10 This has been a popular roping the past four years and has grown considerably. This special fees roping has allowed enter four times which really hasn’t been a problem until this year. The roping jumped up over three hundred teams and lasted until after dark, but with allowing enter four times rotations might not help that much. With this size roping they have entered into the big league and are already discussing ways to improve production quality.

We have added another special fees roping this year that follows this same format. Look for the 10 Invitational on July 14th, Bozeman, Montana.

This was the second year for the Make-A-Wish roping, ( Wiley Hicks

Memorial). Last year was a good one and this was equal or better. Cattle were good and James gave a full prize line on a 20% commission. They received high marks on their flaggers, and the only complaints that we received concerned the ground. Some how the ground was ripped deeper than normal which caused an inordinate number of drags, (after each rotation). With the number of teams, the drags decreased the team per hour ratio and made ropers feel it was running very slow.

Salado, TX This was the spring qualifier and they moved their dates earlier this year.

Normally they would have operated a little later, but moved earlier to stay off the NRS truck roping. That proved to be a little bit of a problem. The close proximity in time to Halletsville and the Big Texas 12, caused roughly a 10% to 20% drop in team count from last year.

Salina, Utah

It was a very good roping and we will do a little better on the scheduling next year.

St. George, UT Last year was the first year for this event. The idea was real simple, place a qualifier the day after the Perfect 10 to give ropers traveling into the region a chance to attend a full qualifier without additional travel expense. It didn’t work out too well on the first try with roping attendance really light, and it didn’t work out too well this year either. They did a nice job with production, but this roping will be cancelled and moved to another location and time.

Homedale, ID This was the first time for this event and we understand that the facility is very nice, and for the most part the majority of the ropers liked the locale and roping. Ben did a good job with production, but there was a stipulation in the agreement that required some of the facility cattle be used in the roping.

As a result we took quite a few complaints on the cattle used in the #10 and #9 (descriptions were not too nice ).

The contractor will have to control cattle quality under this agreement, or we will not be able to reschedule in this location.

Chowchilla, CA Good roping here. Nevertheless, took a lot of complaints on the contractors scheduling. They tried to run 7 divisions in one day, and this one ran into the next day. But the #9 did show some signs of life, as he had 125 teams on enter twice.

Silesia, MT This was the first out for the Cottonwood ranch, and as a result on the job training on the computer system and the WS check list. The production and office operation will be smoother at this location over time. Good roping and good cattle. This small building caused the times to look super fast, but there just wasn’t any way around it. Outside arena on the next one.

New Qualifiers Ropings generally stay in the same geographic and time slot, and appear to be new. However, the following are new additions this year to our schedule. Of course these events are always test events the very first time, and if the locals support the effort, the event will probably be scheduled again.

Ft. Mohave, AZ This was a good roping. Jack bought new cattle and they were a little on the fresh side, which led to complaints about sort. This wasn’t really a problem on the upper ropings, but created a little griping from the #10 and 9 ropers. Couldn’t be helped, there was no score and they just didn’t have older cattle to run in those ropings. If they had, it would have been same scenario as Homedale(complaints about old cattle)

July Qualifier Report Bozeman, MT They say high dollar ropings won’t work up north. So we plan on testing that theory. Watch your calender as we have santioned a Perfect 10 type roping in Bozeman, MT. Chris Douglas will be doing the planning and we will be watching this one closely to see how it will go. We have a few slots in our horse trailer for any of you that want to escape the heat.

Fallon, NV Pretty much as predicted, not enough teams to have a large roping.

Tulsa, OK We received very good comments on this one. Quite a few ropers felt like Mackey missed the score at Grove, but were really complimentary on this set up.

Sterling, CO This was a good one, but out there on the plains this one is always going to be in the 60 to 70 team range.

Albuquerque, NM Good roping here, weather was absolutely miserable on day one, which affected the numbers somewhat. Good cattle, fresh and running hard, but even and absolutely no barrier.

The Utah crew came out, but these ropings are going to run 60 to 70 teams normally. Some of the Wyoming and Colorado ropers are beginning to figure out that these ropings are easy and this is a really good place to get Finale positions.

Lake Charles, LA Lots of compliments on the quality of the cattle at this roping and the previous roping in Louisiana.

Stanfield, Oregon We have made several ventures into northwest that have not ended well. But hopefully WSTR is a little more well known than a couple of years ago. The location of this roping will allow ropers to travel from several different directions. Harry Larson will be giving this one a try.

August Qualifier Report Kamloops, BC We put on our very first ever roping in British Columbia last summer.

Suprisingly the winners nearly unanimously supported the Las Vegas Finale. Ray Lane and his group will add an additional roping in that province this year.

Everett Bowman — He Led the Way

Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

E

verett bowman was born July 12, 1899 at Hope, New Mexico (the family actually lived near Weed) and he was a cowboy from the word go. Arguably remembered as one of rodeo’s greatest legends, the ten time World Champion Cowboy helped bring modern-day rodeo to where it’s at today.

Everett was the first president of the Cowboy Turtles Association “CTA” (the predecessor to the Professional Rodeo Cowboy Association or “PRCA”). As a matter of fact, he was one of the first organizers of the association and signed up as member (card number) fifteen; but first and foremost, he was a cowboy.

The Bowman family moved from New Mexico to the Safford, Arizona area when Everett was about thirteen. One of his first full-time jobs away from his parents ranch was that of a cowboy with the famed “Chiricahua Cattle Company” also know back in the day as “the Cherries” or the “Three C’s” which ran cattle all up and down the rough Arizona – New Mexico border country. The foreman at the time was quoted as saying, “Everett made the best hand we ever had. It was amazing; never saw anything like it! He became a top roper, he was tougher than leather – was the strongest man I’d ever seen.”

At the age of twenty-three, Everett and his brother Skeet, along with eight other cowboys drove a large herd of cattle from Globe, Arizona to Ely, Nevada. This may have been one of the last “old time” great cattle drives, stretching over 900 miles! When they reached Ely, after being on the trail most of the summer, the Bowman brothers decided to

“stay on” and give cowboyin’ in Nevada a try.

However, one cold winter in the “North Country” changed those boy’s minds. Everett said, “That country has two seasons - winter and late fall.” They cowboyed there a little over a year, then returned to Arizona, making the entire round trip a-horseback.

Once back in Arizona, Everett (along with brother Skeet) pursued a full-time rodeo career. That turned out to be one of the best moves ever made.

Although officially credited with ten World Championships, author (and nephew to Everett), Lewis Bowman, claims Everett won at least eleven. You see, prior to 1929, records were sketchy and, in some cases, championships were determined by winning a certain rodeo. Lewis says he may have won even more than eleven.

Officially, Everett was a two-time World All-Around Champion, four-time Steer Wrestling Champion, three-time Calf Roping Champion and gained one Steer Roping title.

He won or placed at most of the day’s biggest shows such as Madison Square Garden, Cheyenne, Calgary, Ellensburg, Prescott and Pendleton to name just a few. He even rode bucking horses till about 1928, but gave it up and stuck with the timed events saying, “Too many events and a man is no good at any of them.” The timed event end of the arena was where he shined anyhow.

At six-foot, two-inches and 200 pounds, Everett was a physical specimen. To date, Everett is one of only three men who have won rodeos “triple crown” (three world titles in a single year) more than once. He accomplished that feat two times. Trevor Brazile and Jim Shoulders are the only other men to do that. Bowman became known in media circles as “Rodeo’s Babe Ruth.” His

fellow competitors often spoke of him as “A Cowboy’s Cowboy.” He competed full-time in rodeo competition until 1943, a period of about twenty years!

Other advancements credited to Bowman include towing the first horse trailer on the rodeo circuit and being the first to fly to rodeos. Everett’s older brother, Dick, fashioned a hand-made wooden horse trailer in1924, which Everett and younger brother Skeet took on its maiden voyage from the home ranch in Safford, Arizona to Cheyenne, Wyoming. They put one horse in the trailer and one in the bed of the truck (as was customary then). When they arrived in Cheyenne, the Bowman boys received a lot of strange looks, but it wasn’t long till the contraption caught on. Then in 1929, Everett is credited with being the first cowboy to get the bright idea to charter a private airplane to get him to more rodeos. That idea also seems to have caught on as well. By the late 1930s, Everett bought his own plane and learned how to fly it for himself, something he did the rest of his life.

Perhaps Everett’s biggest contribution to the sport of rodeo however was his involvement with the CTA. He served as the association’s president from its inception in 1936 until it reorganized as the Rodeo Cowboys Association (RCA) in 1945. The guy’s called themselves “Turtles” because it took them so long to get started and have a voice in rodeo business for themselves. For too many years, cowboys had been unhappy with their entry fees not being added back to the pot, the type and order of events and nonstandard judging practices.

In 1936, at Boston, all that changed when Everett and his fellow cowboys went on strike and refused to compete unless the

aforementioned grievances were rectified.

When the dust settled, the predecessor of the PRCA was born, and Everett was a big part of it all. It has been said, that once he got an idea formed in his head, it was hard to change. He went “toe to toe” with many rodeo committee members during his day, in the best interest of the cowboy. Many of the fundamental changes that are now the bedrock of rodeo came about under Bowman’s leadership.

According to Lewis Bowman, “Everett Bowman (president) and brother-in-law, Hugh Bennett (secretary/treasurer) were the cogs that got the Cowboys Turtle Association into gear. The men signed up the cowboys and kicked ‘em straight (sometimes literally).

Their sister and wives, Lois and Josie, were the official timers and record keepers. The girls stowed the books and association’s money in the back seat of their car and kept records between rodeos.”

Competitor, Phil Mills, said of Everett, “He did more to put the cowboy in good graces than any other man.”

Lewis also tells of another event he witnessed as a boy, “One year at Cheyenne, this fellow and Uncle Everett got into a heated argument about having to join the association to compete in sanctioned rodeos. This fellow took a swing at Everett, who blocked the punch with one hand and landed a crushing

The sport of rodeo also loved Everett After retiring from rodeo, Everett settled Bowman, inducting him into the ProRodeo on his own ranch near Wickenburg, Arizona Hall of Fame in 1979. He was also admitted to where he spent the last parts of his life. He the National Cowboy and Western Heritage also worked as a sheriff there for a time.

The TRIAD Shift

ALL-AROUND

We know the cattle source and cattle type We know the arena conditions i.e. ground, length, width

by TRIAD Classifications Department

S

ince the first of the year, there has been a shift in the TRIAD classification system. This is necessary in order to make more ropers competitive at events across the country. This shift has been made with the intention of slowing down the divisions. So how fast do you have to be to be competitive? Take a look at table 1.1. This table represents the Speed Index or SI. The SI is a calculation of every qualified run that the TRIAD system has gathered from your entries. It represents how you compete at an event. Be sure to study each of the classification numbers and the expectations that TRIAD has as it relates to your handicap number.

The TRIAD system is not concerned with what you look like when you rope as much as on how you compete. How fast are you under certain conditions? How many of the runs you make do you complete?

How fast are you when you put three runs together? How often do you put runs together going into a short go? What impact do you have when you put runs together? In other words, style does not factor in as much as the amount of runs you put together in a competitive setting Through the analysis, TRIAD measures the correlation between speed index and completion rate. The completion rate is the measure of the number of times a roper puts runs together that are fast enough to win or place in a division. In the diagram you see the speed allowed for each classification. If your speed is consistent with your classification and your completion rate is between 46% and 55% you are within the parameters of your classification number.

When determining a roper’s handicap, the TRIAD analysis uses primary and secondary information to make quality decisions. The primary information is the data gathered from USTRC sanctioned and affiliated events, World Series of Team Roping, from other organizations, or stand alone producers that utilize USTRC’s event software. Primary data is the best form of information to analyze because: We know the set-up of the event, which determines the difficulty level We know the performance times from each round from every division We know all the competitors that competed at the event

Secondary data is referred to as Free Form. Free Form information consists of results from jackpots, youth rodeos, amateur rodeos, pro rodeos, or other types of team roping information. This information plays into the decision making process and carries more weight if that is the only information available. However, if you have primary data the Free Form will of course weigh less, but is still considered.

The majority of the information analyzed is objective.

However, the analysis also considers subjective data as part of the analysis in the form of ballot votes or quality control, also referred to as QC. QC is used to insure the quality of the classification coming from the analysis. These screenings are from one run to the next and are made based on the definition of the classification numbers in the 2012 USTRC Rulebook. This provides yet another safety net to help in making informed decisions when assigning a TRIAD Classification number.

This general overview of how a TRIAD classification is assigned should allow you to rest assured that there is a lot of time, effort and thought involved in a TRIAD decision.

The goal of the TRIAD Classification system is to create a level playing field at events across the nation. It is also the intention of the system to create a competitive atmosphere and to give you the confidence to be competitive when you put your money up. There is a comprehensive monitoring system in place designed to measure the quality and accuracy of the decisions made, whether it is a classification increase, decrease, or a first time assignment.

Often, ropers question their classification number. But before you consider a classification appeal, do your own research. These are the questions that you need to ask when inquiring about your classification number.

What is my Speed Index?

What is my completion rate?

How fast am I when I put runs together going into a short go?

What impact have I had on the divisions that I have entered?

These are the major points used when assigning a classification number. Considering these variables provides consistency in the decision making process as well as standardizes the classification analysis.

We are confident that the TRIAD shift is already having a positive impact toward a more level playing field. The evidence resides within the enormous amount of performance data that is checked into the TRIAD system on a weekly basis from events big and small across the country. Perhaps even more importantly, it is the feedback we receive from ropers and producers alike that tell us we are on track. They are particularly happy to see that several of the new faces in the crowd are actually old partners and customers recently encouraged enough by what they see to feel competitive again.

rope on TV nearly 15 years ago, and as teenagers, raked in $141,000 at the 2009 USTRC Championships. The Smith boys will also compete alongside David Motes, 58, and Denny Watkins, 56, who won the BFI in 1981 – roughly a decade before they were born.

Motes and Watkins own 44 NFR qualifications and six NFR average titles between them. In fact, Watkins – along with previous BFI champs Allen Bach and Mike Beers – will extend his streak of competing at every BFI for 35 straight years.

Here are some other pairings to watch: defending world champion Turtle Powell holds the record for heading six steers at the BFI faster than anyone else (in 2004), and with Dugan Kelly behind him, could be the man to beat. And watch for the bay horse that Turtle rode to his gold buckle in 2011 – also named last year’s Head Horse of the BFI, “Jim” will return with owner Richard Eiguren (who’s roping with Kyle Lockett).

It’ll pay to keep an eye on T.J. McCauley, 18, and Quinn Kesler, 20, who were runner-up champs last year, and new world-record holders Brock Hanson and Ryan Motes. Many more legends are in the mix, gunning for well over a half-million dollars in cash and prizes.

The roping founded by Bob Feist in 1977 is “Open to the World,” and held in conjunction with the milliondollar Reno Rodeo (performances this year run June 14-23). Tickets are available at the Silver Legacy starting June 16 and at the door of the Reno Livestock Events Center.

They both claim the number one position in the Incentive heading (Kiley) and heeling (Cooper) events.

re-entries for the world’s richest youth rodeo officially opened April 1 on the website of the International Finals Youth Rodeo, and plans are under way to help celebrate and commemorate the 20th consecutive year.

Contestants planning to compete in this year’s IFYR should go to www.IFYR.com to enter. The total purse consists of more than $200,000 in prize money, along with awards for the champions.

Mike Jackson, operations director of the Expo Center in Shawnee, is also the rodeo coordinator. Jackson said the championship buckles and saddles will include on them a special 20th IFYR logo which will be used for this year only.

Although pre-entries officially April 1, Jackson said “we had countless calls from

contestants prior to that.” Last year, there were 925 who competed, the largest number ever, and Jackson said he would like to see more this year.

There are 16 teams which already have sent in information and the Expo staff has sent back packets back to them as needed, he noted.

Gordona Rowell, executive director of the Shawnee Convention & Visitors Bureau, said this year’s welcome bags for the contestants will have the IFYR20 logo on one side, and the CVB logo on the other, to help commemorate the 20th year.

Special activities in conjunction with the 20th year are being planned, Rowell said.

Suzanne Gilbert is special events coordinator for the IFYR. She said “we are making plans, but nothing is in concrete yet.

“We will have one night which is really

More details will be forthcoming, she added.

This year’s IFYR is scheduled for July 8-13 at the Heart of Oklahoma Exposition Center with the first performance on Sunday night. It’s the second time in the history of the IFYR the opening performance will be on a Sunday evening, and the concluding short go will be held again on Friday night.

Last year was the first time in the history of the event, which originated in 1993, that the first performance was held on Sunday night with the finals on Friday night.

Check-in for this year’s IFYR will begin at 8 a.m. on Friday, July 6, and run continuously through noon, Sunday, July 8.

Jackson said that noon July 8 is the deadline for check-in since the first performance will be that night

May, Waide collected a large sum of the rodeo purse at two different locations. She let it hang out at the NMRA sanctioned, Socorro Cinco De Mayo Rodeo in Socorro New Mexico, and claiming first place for a payout of more than $600. She also collected the first place prize at the AIRCA, Rodeo de Indios hosted in Albuquerque for another check that was a bit more than $700. Waide has it all going her way already this season and you can bet she won’t back off until she hangs the new, NMRA year-end buckle on her belt later this year!

beginning at 8 p.m.

Monday through Friday there will be two performances daily beginning at 9 a.m. and 7:30 p.m.

Jackson said construction of parking lots and upgrading of electrical facilities is moving along.

He anticipates the initial phase of the parking lot improvements to be completed within a couple of weeks or so. The next phase will then start, and he said that will be the area next to the Otto Krausse arena and south of the conference center. “We’ll have them start at the south end, then move to the north end,” Jackson said, adding “they will do that lot one-half at a time.”

Electrical work in the 184-unit RV park which is west, northwest and north of the arena and covered grandstand could be completed by May or so, Jackson stated.

In the RV area nearest Independence along the main entry way to the Expo Center, “all that OGE has to do is plug in their meter,” he said.

NMRA Hosts Two Great Events

T

he New Mexico Rodeo Association (NMRA) rolled through two events over the past month and they both exceeded the expectations of the association with great turnout of contestants, outstanding production, great payouts and lots of spectators who were entertained by the best rodeo talent in the state. The rodeo played out in the two nearby cities of Socorro, and Truth or Consequences (T or C), New Mexico over the first weekend of May. Success of the events may be given to the closeness of the of the cities allowing contestants a

great chance to compete without driving halfway across the states to attend both events. With less than 100 miles between Socorro and T or C, the NMRA worked with the two rodeo committees to help them create a great weekend of fun and excitement for NMRA members.

Congratulations to everyone involved in making these two rodeos a success, as well as all of the winners who loaded up on the payouts, and kicked the NMRA season into full gear.

Frank DuBois Bronc Riding/Calf Roping

R

odeo’s uniqueness came alive in Las Cruces, New Mexico on April 13-16, 2012 with the Frank DuBois Bronc Riding and Tie-Down Roping event. The Southern NM Fairgrounds invited the top bronc riders and calf ropers to an actionpacked event where some of the best calf ropers and bronc riders went head to head in an elimination style format.

With $1,000 in added money and a pile of great sponsors, the event showcased lots of great talent. Calf ropers went through a course of 6 rounds, each one eliminating the slowest ropers until an event winner was found. Congratulations to Pacen Marez who’s fast runs dropped him into the final round where a time of 8.9 seconds helped secure his championship.

In the bronc riding, a bracket was set up for the riders to match their skills in. In the end, Jeb Loney posted two scores for a average of 150 points to secure the win.

Just on his heels was Clint Lindenfeld who finished with a two head total of 149 points.

Both winners walked away with cash in their pockets and championship trophy buckles. Least to say the Frank DuBois Bronc Riding/Calf Roping was a success and you can bet producer and New Mexico State University Rodeo Coach, Jim Dewey Brown will make this an annual event.

or the fun of it, I looked up ‘dirt’ on an online dictionary. Of course I got the most common definition - Earth or soil. Then it got a little different. Here are a few more definitions that popped up – Excrement; One that is mean, contemptible, or vile; Obscene language or subject matter; Malicious or scandalous gossip; Information that embarrasses or accuses; Unethical behavior or practice – corruption; A person or thing regarded as worthless; obscene or indecent speech or writing; Slang gossip; scandalous information; Moral corruption.

Looking at all of these definitions, I think we can all agree that at one time or another, we have all fallen into the cycle of this column. We have been on the receiving side of ‘dirt’ or the clean side of it, but one way or another we have been involved with something dirty.

Just for fun, here is a little more I found on the word ‘dirt.’

If you are dirt cheap, live on a dirt road and dated a dirt farmer’s daughter or son in high school, or if you have ever been called a dirty dog or dirtyold-man when doing your dirty laundry or playing dirty pool, while telling a dirty joke, or have been called a dirt-bag by a dirt-poor dirt digger - we have all probably passed a little dirty money, laid a little dirt on our trail through life making us all potential for this article.

he Grand Canyon Pro Rodeo Association (GCPRA) hit the ground running to produce a great event in Cottonwood, Arizona. The May 4-5, 2012 event showcased the some of the best talent from rodeo cowboys and cowgirls in the state of Arizona. There was a lot of action as these constants went head to head for part of the great rodeo payout, as well as championship status among the GCPRA. AS the season wears on, the GCPPA is continuing to edge toward the year-end Finals where competitors will fight to the finish trying to be named state champions. Each GCPRA sanctioned or co-sanctioned rodeo showcases more money the leaders can win in order to stay on top of the leader board or what those in contention for the top spot in each event can claim to help close the gap or overtake the number one position for a chance to win big at the end of the season. Although there is quite a bit of rodeo season left and many great rodeos still ahead until the Finals, you can bet there will be lots of great action going on

inside arenas all across the Southwest as contestants battle it out.

Tsosie, of Farmington, N.M., finished with a two-head score of 174 points to hold off Kanin Asay – the only other contestant to complete two qualified rides – by a margin of four points and earn $3,669.

It was one of Tsosie’s best

PBR RIP Mossy Oak Mudslinger D&H Cattle Co. has announced the passing of 790 Mossy Oak Mudslinger.

S He was 15.

“He’s irreplaceable,” said H.D. Page of the former World Champion Bull, “there’s no doubt about it.

“I missed him a bunch when I had to retire him from the arena, and now I’m going to miss him even more as a sire. He was part of our family. He’s done more for our family than any person.”

Mossy Oak Mudslinger was among the greatest bucking bulls ever to have competed in the 20-year history of the PBR. He had 94 outs in the PBR - 93 of which came in the Built Ford Tough Championship Round - with a career average bull score of over 45.8 points per out. He was ridden 27 times, 15 times by round-winners, with a career average score of 91.87 points.

In addition to winning the 2006 title, he was the high-money bull of the regular season in 2005, earning the most money for the riders who managed to the make the whistle on him.

In 2004, Mike Lee tied for the highest marked ride of the year with 93.75 points on him. The highest score on Mossy Oak Mudslinger ever came three years earlier, when Cory McFadden covered him for 95.5

performances since buying his PRCA card a little over a year ago, given that Black Kat has a buck off rate of better than 70 percent and has been selected for the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo in each of the last two years.

(Calif.) Rodeo and then there was Lane Santos-Karney, a 19-year-old freshman at Cal Poly-San Luis Obispo who won the tie-down roping in 9.1 seconds at the Kern County Sheriff Reserve Stampede Days Rodeo in Bakersfield, Calif., and also earned a team roping check in Riverdale.

Brazile watch

Helotes may have been the epicenter for future-star gazing, but there were plenty of other opportunities on the first weekend in May. Guymon (Okla.) Pioneer Days winners J.R. Vezain, Chase Williams and Tim Bingham are all 20, as is Guytin Tsosie, who won the Waco Xtreme Bulls Division 2 title. Fair Acres, N.M., cowboy Seth Hall, 21, won the all-around, tie-down roping and the team roping (with his also21-year-old partner Josh Siggins) at the Stonyford (Calif.) Rodeo. Justin Rickard, 21, won the bull riding at the Riverdale

Trevor Brazile earned $1,629 in the tiedown roping at the Guymon (Okla.)

Pioneer Days Rodeo to push his season all-around earnings to $71,150. It is nearly double the total accrued by Bobby Mote – the man in second place – as Brazile seeks to earn his record seventh consecutive (and 10th overall) all-around gold buckle.

Brazile also leads the steer roping world standings and is fifth among team roping headers and 21st in the tie-down roping standings.

points at the World Finals in Las Vegas.

In the years before finally winning the World Champion Bull title, Mossy Oak Mudslinger finished second to Dillinger and then finished second to Little Yellow Jacket.

In his last out, Mossy Oak Mudslinger bucked off Guilherme Marchi in 5.1 seconds and was marked 46.5 points in Round 6 of the 2006 World Finals.

He was a six-time World Finals qualifier and big reason D&H Cattle Co. was named Stock Contractor of the Year

for five years running from 2001 through 2005. Page & Teague Bucking Bulls won in 2006.

In an email, H.D.’s sister Johna said that in spite of the sadness of his passing, “Mudslinger was out breeding cows the day he died. His genetics will impact the industry for years to come. … Mudslinger left some great offspring to carry on his legacy.”

Among his calves are Velvet Slinger, Copperhead Slinger, Double Oak, Little 1\4 Horizontal Snake and Hot Stuff.

Are You Wild Enough To Win Big?

PHOTOS COURTESY OF NAKAI PROFESSIONAL RODEO PHOTOS

ild as wild can get, the annual Wild Thing Championship Bull Riding is back and a challenge is sent out from producer Larry Peterson and the entire Wild Thing staff and contractors that if you are salty enough to call yourself a bull rider, you better enter up for a chance to win one of the largest and most prestigious bull riding events of the year.

The Wild Thing has been named the #31 bull riding event in the Southwest by Bull Riders TV network who has covered the country, as well as Canada Producer – Larry Peterson and Mexico for several years filming events for playback

2011 Rider – Matt Davis

throughout the year. In addition, for the past several years, if you hang your spurs on the hide of one of Wild Things bulls for eight seconds you won a piece of the purse. And, it has been a rather large purse and does not look like it will be any less this year. With $6,000 added cash, an estimated total payout of $24,000, as well as a one-of-a-kind Red Bluff trophy buckle, and a guarantee

$6,000 to the winner who wouldn’t want a chance to be part of the wildest bull riding event in New Mexico?

Least to say, the Wild Thing has become as well known as any bull riding event

on earth, with nightly fireworks displays, fun and games inside and outside the arena fence and some of the best bucking bulls and bull rider action on the planet.

To prove that, the event maxed the over 5,000 capacity limit at Red Rock State Park in Gallup, New Mexico last year, and even though there was standing room only, everyone walked away with their fill of bull riding excitement.

Sammy Andrews, as well as Owen Washburn and Martin Baca will once again bring only the best bulls in their string to the 19th Annual event this year, making it a riding contest instead of a drawing contest. As the bulls buck their best, the cowboys are always in high fashion during the mid-summer event, riding 2011 Wild Thing Champion – Cody Morgan some of their best for a shot at the biggest money of the year.

The Wild Thing is scheduled for July Place your name alongside 13-14 this year and opening the door to some of the best bull riders who 90 bull riders who want to toss their have earned the title of Wild name into the pot for a chance to load Thing Champion in the past. their pockets full of greenbacks. Entries 1994 – Jim Bob Custer open on Thursday June 28 and Friday 1995 – Shawn Ramirez June 29 from 9 a.m. through 12 p.m.

1996 – Casey Payne both days.

A non refundable $100 deposit 1997 – Shane Thurston is required to guarantee a spot in the 1998 – Daniel Muellar event and must be received by July 11, 1999 – Daniel Muellar 2012.

Late entries and stand-by entries 2000 – Talmadge Langley will be taken July 12 from 10 a.m. to 11 2001 – Romeo Maryboy a.m..

All entries can be made over the 2002 – Darren Francis phone at 505-863-5402.

2003 – Matt Clouser So bull riders, listen up – If you want 2004 – Robertson Cody to be among the best and play side-by2005 – Robertson Cody side with the best, enter up and climb 2006 – Terry Minica aboard for a chance to win the wildest 2007 – Kevin Salazar bull riding event in the Southwest. The 2008 – Justin Howlett Wild Thing Championship Bull Riding 2009 – Ryan McConnel has experienced a long success rate and 2010 – Spud Jones will once again claim its namesake with 2011 – Cody Morgan another fantastic event this year.

Dear Ropers, Do you feel like a million dollars?

That is exactly what the USTRC is about to bestow on all of its competing members in 2012. Not to feel like a million dollars, but to present all of you collectively with an actual million dollars in cash! This is a game changer, as it far exceeds anything that has ever been done at the USTRC since the invention of the Shoot-Out. The consequences are going to be truly revolutionary.

Why? Because instead of you, the roper, contributing added money to the National Finals Shoot-Out Fund, that money will now be provided solely by the USTRC, and it’s guaranteed to be a minimum of One Million Dollars! From here on out, not one dime of your entry fees will go toward added money at the National Finals of Team Roping (NFTR).

For those of you who are unclear on how huge payouts at the NFTR have been previously generated, here is a quick reminder. A critical aspect of USTRC’s success was to create a National Finals event unsurpassed in the amount of money awarded to its National Champions.

That goal has been accomplished, signified by the fact that for the last 11 years, over one million dollars of added money has magnified the incredible purses at the USTRC National Finals of Team Roping.

Until now, a large portion of that money has come from the roper, in the form of a five percent contribution coming

out of your entry fees at every USTRC sanctioned roping. Your contributions helped to build the National Finals of Team Roping into the sport’s premier event – the largest and richest team roping in the world. In appreciation for all you’ve done, the USTRC is stepping up to contribute all of the added money, and we guarantee to add one million dollars to the NFTR purse.

This commitment demonstrates how much faith the USTRC has in this sport and its members. But what exactly does this pledge mean to you? It means cash purses at every sanctioned event will dramatically increase. Based on roper contributions in 2011, over $750,000 more cash will be paid out at sanctioned events per season, without you having to lift a financial finger.

That’s the new deal, the revolution USTRC is initiating right now.

But the roper is not the only beneficiary. The business of producing team ropings is not an easy road to travel. USTRC producers have a substantial commitment in time, effort and money for every roping they put on, with no guarantee to earn a profit. And ropers, they do HAVE to earn a profit, or they will not be in this business very long. So the USTRC further pledges support of the unsung heroes of our business – the producers.

You may not be aware that USTRC producers have also significantly contributed to the National Finals Shoot-Out Fund. In 2011, producers

added over a quarter of a million dollars out of their pocket to the Shoot-Out Fund. In the 2012 season, producers are no longer required to contribute to the Fund. This helps our producers stay in the game so they can continue providing ropers the best productions found anywhere in the sport of team roping.

So, the revolution is upon us. The 2012 season marks a historic juncture in USTRC history as we continue our quest to provide greater value to our members. Now, ropers who cannot attend the Cinch NFTR won’t see their money siphoned off to an event he or she cannot attend. But the NFTR remains intact with the enormous cash purses and nominal entry fees that have made the NFTR the preeminent team roping year after year. Now cash purses at sanctioned events will grow by more than an estimated $750,000. You no longer need a math degree and a Cray computer to figure how much of your entry fees go into the roper’s pot. That number is two-thirds. Period. End of story!

Sincerely,

Kirk Bray

Background Check

W

e met at high noon, she was dressed completely in green from her pilates shoes to her forest green sweatband. She wore spandex leotards, an Audubon pin and a Sierra Club tee shirt with John Muir’s face on it. The leotards and Muir’s likeness were distorted by her 250 pounds of greenness. I wore jeans, boots and a free cap from an auction market. It was obvious that we were from different warring tribes.

She sneered at me and drew first as both our hands reached for the door to the ice cream novelties in the frozen food aisle of our local grocery store. I’d seen her around town ever since she and her diminutive husband moved from the big city to our little town. I knew her only by reputation.

She’d immersed herself in local politics and spent six nights a week going to meetings, and I bet her henpecked husband sure dreaded that seventh night when she stayed home. She was busy saving salamanders, watching birds through binoculars, carrying protest signs and going on sit-down strikes.

And believe me, she had a considerable amount to sit down!

When she took the last box of Skinny Cow® fudge bars I was in a fighting mood.

“That’s a nice tee shirt you have there,” I said politely. “John Muir was quite a man.”

“I”ll say,” she snarled. “He saved Yosemite from being decimated by your kind.”

“He was one once, you know?”

“Who?” she asked with a sour smile and a politically correct accent.

“John Muir. The founder of the Sierra Club was a sheepherder when he first came to California. He also worked in saw mills where he stripped the beautiful trees of their branches before ripping the flesh from their bodies and turning them into lumber.”

“That can’t be true. He saved Yosemite.”

“You may not want to believe it but I assure you it’s true. I just finished reading a book about Muir. He was an accomplished man and besides founding the Sierra Club he invented a wooden alarm clock that would tip you out of bed at the desired

hour. But where he really made his money was as a rancher. You know, just like me.”

She turned scarlet, which did not go well with her green outfit, and tried to evade me but I followed her to paper products. I did my best impression of a chainsaw before saying, “Muir was quite a capitalist, you know? He actually invented another machine that made 2,500 broom handles a day. But I’m sure you know all this because you have his face emblazoned across your body. Just imagine, John Muir made his money herding cows so he could one day start the Sierra Club.”

Again, she wheeled her cart away and I didn’t run into her again until she tried to run into me. Literally. She was in pet foods buying bird seed for her feathered friends.

“I’m sure you know that John James Audubon’s family in America owned a lead mine where they mined lead for bullets?”

(Here I did my great impression of a Thompson machine gun!) Then I really laid it on: “Audubon was quite a hunter and fisherman too?”

“No, he painted birds, he didn’t sh-shshoot them,” she raged at me.

“Before he painted them he shot them from the sky. You didn’t think he got such great detail by observing them through a looking glass, did you? He was also a taxidermist and created his own nature museum of a variety of dead animals that he killed.”

By now I was only talking to myself as my greenie friend left her loaded cart in the store and ran outside. Too bad too because I also wanted to tell her that Al Gore, the father of Global Warming and the man who said gassy cows caused it, was the son of a cattle breeder himself, and that Bruce Babbitt, the man who tried to run ranchers out of business, came from one of the great ranching families in America. But I got the impression she really didn’t want to hear any more about her Gods of Green. So I took the fudge bars from her abandoned cart and rushed them home to my freezer before they began to melt. Global warming, you know? wwwLeePittsbooks.com
