THE

Competitorial N

o question about it, this has been the best rodeo/team roping season in some time.

Though contestant numbers aren’t what they were when the economy was booming a few years back, it’s certain that things are on the upswing. You can point to the past 4th of July weekend as an indicator that contestants of all genres of the sport are finding their way back to events, and that’s a great sign for the future.

Of course that’s great to see, but along with the added numbers of entrants, so goes the competition level and the pressure of one’s own expectations to perform… usually at a higher level than should be reasonably expected… and sometimes it’s downright ugly. Even more than ugly, it’s embarrassing.

I don’t know where the sense of better judgment was lost along the way, but there is no doubt that some people have simply forgotten, or were never properly educated, as to how to behave in a competitive setting. The arguing and utter disrespect towards judges, officials, flaggers, and the like has just gotten out of hand… way out of hand.

As long as rodeo has been a contested sport there have been differences between judges and contestants, and there is not a single selfproclaimed roper that does not have at least one anecdote as to how he or she was kept from the pay window by the flagrantly inept actions of a flagger or roping producer. The fact is, it happens, it has always happened, and it always

will happen. The difference, as I see it, is in the way the so called “wronged” deal with it.

There are no more or fewer competitors being wronged today than there have ever been.

The difference is the skyrocketing increase in the public display of dissatisfaction. Adding to the problem is that there never seems to be any negative recourse for such behavior. So, it only makes sense that it’s becoming worse. It seems to go like this… I throw a public fit when I think I got a bad call… no one says or does anything to stop it… so I have no reason NOT to throw a fit the next time I think I’m fouled in some way. My fellow competitors see that it’s okay, and the next thing you know, everyone is throwing a fit all the time.

The worst part of it all is that most of the fits that are thrown aren’t a result of being fouled at all. Most of them stem from the fact that the competitor somehow performs in such a way that he or she is embarrassed, and rather than accept it and move on, they immediately look to lay blame for their lack of performance… and the judge or flagger is always an easy target.

I suppose it shouldn’t come as a surprise, as that kind of behavior has become increasingly prevalent in our society as a whole. The person who takes personal responsibility is increasingly rare, and it seems kids are taught early on that nothing is EVER their fault. It’s a bad teacher, a bad school, blah, blah, blah… it’s no wonder continued on page 12

ALL-AROUND

“Cowboy Christmas,” as it has come to be called, the Fourth of July Celebration is the best time of the year for cowboys and cowgirls in the rodeo arena.

This year the celebrated date fell right in the middle of the week, opening the door for lots of time for cowboys and cowgirls to hit the road and enjoy the many events stretching across the country.

Arizona had a big event this year, marking 100 years in the making. The Round Valley Rodeo held in Springerville / Eagar, Arizona was a hit among those who wanted to mark their name in the history books. The one-day rodeo was surrounded by a celebration throughout the entire community and the countries Independence Day was well represented in the small Arizona community.

Heading into New Mexico, two events settled within 60 miles of each other have become the crown jewel of the big July rodeo weekend. The Smokey

Bear Stampede in Capitan, New Mexico and the Mescalero Apache Indian Ceremonial and Rodeo in Mescalero, New Mexico are always hits among rodeo contestants and fans. Both events were well attended and contestants were able to make each rodeos performance at each rodeo throughout the long weekend.

The small community of Capitan was once again in full force, welcoming this year’s event and the fun and excitement it brings. The Smokey Bear Stampede also got a national plug from ABC news and its coverage of the top ten best small towns to celebrate July 4.

Up North, just across the Colorado line, the Annual Red Ryder Roundup played out once again over the July 4th Holiday. The Pagosa Springs rodeo has been a hotspot of rodeo action for over 60 years and still offers one of the biggest and best rodeos of the year. This year’s, three-day action-packed event was well attended by a variety of cowboys and cowgirls from many different associations throughout the Southwest, making it a great event to compete at and watch. Some of the best of the best were in fine fashion while riding and roping their way to victory, and like many years before, the rodeo was full of surprises and action for those who came out to celebrate the fourth of July, rodeo style!

Producer Heads North!

The Southwest team roping producer Kenny Zamora and his Zamora Roping Productions headed north for an event this year. They went really, really far north, across the border into Canada.

Zamora and his crew went to Ft. St. John, BC, Canada on June 30-July 1, 2012.

There they hosted a World Series Qualifier for those across the board to qualify for this year’s WSTR Finale. The event showcased a #9, #10 and a #11 World Series event, as well as a #10 Handicap Warm Up roping. Winners walked away with big paychecks and large smiles thanks to Zamora, who continues to offer ropings to more and more people across the county and now other countries, too.

Team Ropers – It’s Finals Time

O

kay, it may only be August, but in just over a month the 2012 team roping season is going to hit its all time high as all of today’s great team roping associations and organizations will climax with their season-ending finals events.

The Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping will once again hit Oklahoma City, Oklahoma at the end of October and the World Series of Team Roping Finale will be taking shape in December in Las Vegas, Nevada during one of rodeos biggest weeks of the year.

The Cinch USTRC National Finals has been the staple of great events for many years. The USTRC has made this event the biggest and best event team ropers can experience. Not only is there millions of dollars handed out and hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of prizes awarded throughout the week in Oklahoma City, the event is a week-long team roping paradise. A roper can immerse themselves in the sport and get a fill of team roping at its finest. The USTRC has perfected the event and continues each and every year to make it bigger and better than the year before. From the trade show to the team roping seminars, as well as the Challenge arena, Jr. Looper Championships and the event itself, there is always something for everyone who attends the event.

This year’s USTRC Finals will once again showcase the talents of team ropers who have worked hard to earn Flex Earnings throughout the 2012 season. Using these earnings allows ropers a chance to rope for the biggest USTRC payouts of the year in the Shoot-Out events. These events are lifechanging in many ways. Not only does the hundreds of thousands of dollars play a role in a team roper’s life, it sets them on a pedestal and gives them a chance to be recognized for hard work, determination and persistence as a team roper.

The USTRC Finals will play out October 22 - 30, 2012 at the Oklahoma State Fairgrounds. The week will be filled with Preliminary and Shoot-Out ropings, as well as the great US Open Championships which opens the door for the best of the best to compete in an evening of great team roping action. There is also the #12 and #10 Gold Plus ropings where the high money winners take home Dodge trucks and Case tractors, as well as the Cruel Girl all-girl ropings and the Jr. Looper Championships. These events are intertwined throughout the week’s other

Preliminary and Shoot-Out events.

In December, ropers can gather in Las Vegas, Nevada for the World Series of Team Roping Finale. Hosted during the week-long, PRCA National Finals Rodeo, this event opens the door for not only lots of great team roping action with huge payouts, but a fun getaway for team ropers and their friends and family during the year’s biggest rodeo. The World Series of Team Roping has made its name known over the past several years as one of the best team roping organizations in the country and this year’s Finale looks to add another notch to the WSTR setting up to be bigger and better than ever.

Last year’s winners were showered with cash, as they have been since the WSTR inception. This included a payout of $1,165,000 in the #13 WSTR Finale, $1,230,000 in the #12 WSTR Finale, $1,188,000 in the #11 WSTR Finale and $1,160,000 in the #10 WSTR Finale.

Setting new formats, qualification avenues and payout structures, the WSTR has set the bar for big payout ropings and the Finale is the pinnacle of the association events. The dates for this year’s WSTR Finale are December 10-15, 2012. The roping will begin with the #13 WSTR Finale and move through the #10 WSTR Finale throughout the five days and will also incorporate several other team roping events ropers have come to enjoy.

Although the year is half way over, team ropers have a lot of action ahead of them.

The final couple of months of the year have become the biggest in the sport, with millions of dollars up for grabs. The USTRC and the WSTR have helped make the sport of team roping one of the richest in the equine industry and ropers have the opportunity each year to be among some of the biggest winners in the country. Not only that, the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping and the World Series of Team Roping Finale are always tons of fun for team ropers, their families and their friends. Each event has its own version of Final extravaganzas and they both have shaped their events to be inviting and exciting to team ropers in unique and different ways. The one thing that seems to be the common denominator is the sport itself. Team roping has come many miles since it began and the horizon is filled with many more milestones that will continue to make team roping attractive and fun for those who come to enjoy it.

ALL-AROUND

The Bowman Brothers More than Everett...

Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

R

ecently, I wrote about one of rodeos greatest men, Everett Bowman.

However, there were five Bowman brothers in the family (actually six, one died young) and they all made headlines in the sport of rodeo. Ed, Walter, Dick, and the youngest, Skeet were each great rodeo hands in their own right and they all made contributions to the sport of rodeo during its infancy.

Although Everett received more publicity and is obviously the best-known, the other brothers are credited with things such as owning and training the first calf roping horse to back up and work rope while a calf was being flanked and tied; the first horse trailer on the rodeo circuit; the first to get off the horse on the right side and flank a calf, and many other things as well. These men started their rodeo careers in the mid 1920s.

Here are the stories.

Ed Bowman, oldest of the brothers, made several innovations to the sport of calf roping. He was the first man to show up at a rodeo with a horse that backed up and took slack out of the rope during a calf roping run. His famous horse, Back up Pete, learned how to work rope by pure accident.

One day, while working cattle on the ranch, Ed roped a wild steer in a brushy area. Then he got off Pete to run down the rope and tie the steer. When he did, a mesquite branch hung on his chaps and, upon coming loose, it swung back and

whacked Pete on the nose. Well Ol’ Pete ran backwards taking slack out of the rope at a high rate of speed. Ed realized immediately this was a much easier way to flank and tie cattle.

Back at the practice pen, he taught Pete to do this on cue. The command was, “Back up Pete.” At the first rodeo he entered after teaching Pete this trick, folks were impressed with the ease in which Ed was able to bed his cattle. They won the event. A few months later, at another rodeo, several guys had trained their horses to back up like Pete did. Within a year most of the top ropers in the country had trained their horses the trick as well. Times were much quicker than before as a result. Ed Bowman was the first to have such a horse, however, and folks around the country came to know the famous horse simply by the command Ed would bellow as he ran down the rope, “Back up Pete.”

Another thing Ed did to help revolutionize the sport of calf roping was to get off on either the right or left side of his horse, depending upon how big the cattle were. If the cattle were small enough, Ed would get off the right side of the horse, run down the rope and flank the calf then tie him (a feat unheard of at the time). If the cattle were too big, he would get off the traditional way (for the time), on the left side of the horse, and run down the rope and leg the calf over before tying it. Ed was a shore-nuff athlete.

He also did things such as wear tennis shoes instead of boots so he ran faster to the cattle from his horse and he tied his ropes off shorter than usual so the distance from horse to calf was quicker.

Ed also became known as a coach to the Bowman brothers as he was always figuring out better ways to do things. He often coached younger brothers Everett and Skeet in the ways of rodeo and winning. Ed did not follow rodeo as vigorously as younger brother Everett, or even baby brother Skeet, but he was just as handy. Ed had a passion for good horses and spent most of his life raising and training them.

He had several champions in cutting and rodeo circles after retiring from the rodeo arena.

Skeet Bowman, the baby of the bunch,

is probably best known in the rodeo world after brother Everett. Louis Bowman, author, and nephew of the bunch (Dick’s son), said Skeet was the best roper of the whole crew. Skeet won many calf roping titles at major rodeos and probably would have won a World Championship or two, but he had pretty much quit full-time rodeo by the early 1930s. You see, prior to 1929, records were sketchy and not officially kept to determine who the World Champion was. Championships were often determined by who won a certain rodeo in those days.

It wasn’t till the early ‘30s that championship races were a thing to go after and by then Skeet was mostly done with rodeo.

Skeet rodeoed full-time with brother Everett throughout the mid and late ‘20s as a way to make a living. It sure beat cowboy wages when you won as much as those two did, but along the way he injured his back steer wrestling. Back then, it was not uncommon for the dogging steers to weigh in at a thousand pounds or more. This favored stouter contestants such as brother Everett who was, as they say, strong as a mule.

The back injury bothered Skeet off and on, so once he and Everett had put a little money together, they bought a ranch outside of Safford, Arizona. Skeet chose to

THE

He cowboyed when need be.” So even though Walt had around California most of his life and no money, no horse, and was dressed in rodeoed locally.

cowboying from the time he was knee-high to a grasshopper, but Dick Bowman used to say that he and the automobile were born together in 1896 and he was always more inclined mechanically than a-horseback. Dick went to WWI and was introduced to all kinds of machinery there that plumb excited this ol‘ country boy. When he returned, he became an engineer, hydrologist, driver, electrician, carpenter, plumber and mechanic of all sorts - all self-taught.

Even though Dick did not rodeo and cowboy like the other four brothers, he made a contribution to rodeo which revolutionized the sport at the time. He invented the first horse trailer used on the rodeo trail. While he may not officially be credited with inventing the horse trailer, there were other mentions of trailers and what-not that had been used to haul horses around prior to this, Dick’s trailer was definitely the first rodeo trailer and the first to be used by cowboys.

It came about like this. Brothers Everett and Skeet were trying to get from Safford, Arizona to Cheyenne, Wyoming for their first bigtime rodeo outside of Arizona. They were in a crux over their horse situation. Back then, folks hauled horses in the back of trucks, or most of the time, they rode them. Although the brother duo had trailed a large herd of cattle from Globe, Arizona to Ely, Nevada just over a year before, making the entire round trip a-horseback, they knew it was awful far to Cheyenne to ride and get there on time.

However they could only haul one horse in the truck, what to do...

Dick told them, “Why don’t you load one in the truck and haul one?” They liked the idea, so Dick fashioned a hand-made trailer for his brothers to use, in one afternoon. Although it took them over a week to travel all the way to Cheyenne, on primitive and sometimes non-existent roads, having two horses there instead of one enabled Everett and Skeet to clean house. They won more money at that rodeo than either had ever seen at one time. This launched their rodeo careers! Using that trailer, those two were able to go to many rodoes around the country where you probably would have only seen “locals” in the past. As stated above, the two even won enough money during the late ‘20s to buy a ranch back home. Although folks gawked and laughed at those country bumpkins from Arizona when they first showed up with a contraption hooked to their vehicle with a horse in it, they didn’t laugh long. It caught on quickly and others were copying the “Bowman Trailer” inside of a year. Guys like, Randy Bloomer, of famed Bloomer Trailers are still improving on the invention to this day, but now you know who made the very first one.

So, while Everett Bowman received most of the press, and rightfully so, because he did more for the sport of modern rodeo than most any other man in history, now we know the stories of his brothers who were tough hands and good men, all of them.

ALL-AROUND

World Series of Team Roping Mid-Year Steer Report Courtesy of Word Series of Team Roping website – wstroping.com

A

ll things considered, the quality of cattle for the first half of the year looked exceptionally good, considering the pool. Every serious roper realizes who has the big herds, who has the Complete Light Duty Mexicans, who has the longhorn crosses, Diesel Truck Maintenance etc, etc. As a result of the cattle shortage, and Diagnostics the same cattle owners are providing Preventative Maintenance cattle to several different associations, Pre-purchase Inspections (larger ropings.) But obviously the management by the contractors can make the same herd look completely different.

With the border shut down for the 3700 Morris St. NE most part, the largest percentage of cattle Albuquerque, NM 87111 being used are natives, and that has located on the NE corner of changed the landscape a bunch in the last Morris & Comanche 12 months. The natives sort just a little Hours: 1/6 than the Mexicans. And more differently M-F 7:30 a.m. to 5:30 Productions p.m. importantly, for some of the large qualifiers it isn’t unusual to see three different herds thrown together, which makes the sorting even more difficult.

We see a real appreciation for the contractors that are working hard to make For Your Action whatever they have look good.

Photography and Videos Officially for the record, the complaints Mark and Becky Hutchings that we are receiving on a weekly basis are Photography/Videography pretty much the same. The complaints generally involve sort, but some just complain about the quality of cattle even when they are outstanding. Some ropers expect perfect cattle every time on every run, which is totally unrealistic.

The thing to keep in mind is that there aren’t many herds large enough to put multiple loads together and then sort down as we have in the past. Even if there are, cattle are so short contractors can’t NOT use all their steers. They are having to produce these ropings with one load and sometimes two loads. There are cattle in all of these herds that are “We Are Your Stop Action Photographer” fleshier and run harder, but with this shortage of cattle most of these guys 15 McCord Lane • Belen, NM 87002 can’t afford to sort those runners out.

505.407.4627 Which brings them to the balancing act, poundinghooves.com do they set the barrier for the majority of the herd and take a chance on getting the pictures@poundinghooves.com roper outrun on some strong ones, or do

505.299.0591

they set it for those strong ones and let them beat up the rest of the herd with basically no barrier.

Some are opting to set the barrier for the majority and if they get someone outrun, do a rerun. Some contractors are terrified by the reruns and don’t have confidence that their flaggers have the ability to distinguish between the guy that let the steer out too far and was outrun, from a legitimate rerun. And to be honest, most contractors just don’t want to start down that road with the reruns on hard runners. We have one contractor that is sorting off the runners in the pre-ropings, giving them ACE and putting them back into the herd.

Obviously the barrier length, reruns and sort, flagger, etc. are all at the discretion of the producer, and some are not as comfortable with their job as others.

In a nutshell, we think the management style of the contractor in some cases can be more important than the cattle herd.

Some of these guys can take an uneven herd and make it look good, and some can take good ones and make them look bad.

So accusations that someone is deliberately trying to get ropers outrun in the first round is never the case. Most probably it is just lack of management.

We appreciate your comments and we will continue to monitor and correct, but sooner or later everyone will realize there is a huge change underway in the roping industry. You are going to hear some horror stories from time to time. Those of us in this business full time are scrambling to get a grip on this new reality with these small and mixed herds of roping steers and figure out how to manage them. We realize that to keep things good for the ropers with these smaller herds we will probably have to have more intense management. There may be contractors that aren’t able to do that and we will cross that bridge when we get to it. In the meantime you can bet that not a day goes by that the other organizations aren’t worrying about cattle at their year-end events, and/or Troy and I contemplating December! The only thing we can promise is that we will have the best available at that point in time.

Jr. Southwest Competitors Hold Their Own

T

he National Junior High School Rodeo Finals paid tribute to the hundreds of Jr. High rodeo competitors all across the country. The event was held at the Red Rock Park in Gallup, New Mexico and was once again the focal point of the rodeo scene throughout the country. Just as every cowboy hat turns towards Las Vegas in December, so did the rodeo community during the week of June 24-30, 2012 as the best of the best Jr. rodeo competitors squared off to see who could out ride, out rope and out rodeo the others.

Cowboys and cowgirls came from all across the country, as far away as Hawaii, Mississippi, Montana, Minnesota and just about every state in the union to compete and every state was well represented. The Southwest’s states of New Mexico and Arizona had some of their best and proved once again rodeo is alive and well in the Southwest. Although no one from these two states earned one of the National titles handed out over the week, there were many who knocked at the door and made the quest for a championship run for its money.

The event that showcased the biggest class of competitors from the Southwest was the team roping event. Four out of the top ten teams came from the sunshine section of the country. The team of John Henry Gaona, Jr. from Winkelman, Arizona and Junior Zambrano III from Tucson, Arizona finished less than one second from winning the event. They finished in second place behind the Texas team of Brett Stuart and Tyson Thompson who claimed the title. Just behind those two teams, finishing third, was a New Mexico team. Derek Runyan from Silver City teamed up with Braiden Washburn of Lordsburg and gave a run at the championship title. The other top ten finishing teams in the team roping went to Blaine Garley and Avery Gonzales from Peralta, New Mexico who finished in fifth, and the team of Ranger Hill of Scottsdale, Arizona and Monty James of Payson, Arizona who earned tenth place.

Four top tens out of a field of 61 of the toughest Jr. High rodeo competitors in the country is not too bad.

Another second place, reserve

championship went home with a New Mexico cowboy. Derek Runyan who came up from Silver City, New Mexico battled it out in the Tie-Down Roping event till the end. After the dust settled inside the arena, Runyan finished in second place behind the winner of the event, John Douch from Huntsville, Texas.

In the top ten of the Tie Down Roping, another New Mexico cowboy earned a seat. Sterling Cowdrey of Bosque Farms, New Mexico finished in sixth place.

There were a total of 67 Tie Down ropers at the Jr. High Finals in the competition.

Cowdrey also found himself with a chance at another title in the Boys Goat Tying. Out of 133 contestants, Cowdrey finished third and less than a second away from the lead. Winner of the Boys Goat Tying went home with Cody Darnell of Gordon, Nebraska and second place was earned by Jason Adams of Water Valley, Mississippi. Cowdrey, however made a run at the title and with two great finishes at the event can hold his head high and continue to chase the rodeo dream as the world of rodeo continues to unfold in front of him.

A top four finish allowed another New Mexico cowboy to rise into the spotlight. Brock Powell of Aragon, New Mexico finished a few seconds behind the winner, Lane McPheeters from Salem, Indiana but showed that he has a bright future in the large man’s event. There was a total of 110 cowboys who were vying for the Chute Dogging championship at the 2012 Jr. High National Finals Rodeo.

A pair of Southwest cowgirls made an attempt at fame in the Pole Bending event, claiming top ten spots in the Average. Shelby Mayfield of Clovis, New Mexico finished eight while Tatum, Schafer of Queen Creek, Arizona was ninth. Winning the Jr. High title in the Pole Bending was Raelee Self of Powderly, Texas. There were just under 150 contestants in the event and tough competition throughout the weeks event.

Congratulations to all of the title winners of the Jr. High Rodeo Finals, as well as all of the competitors in from the Southwest who competed, proving there

Champions Crowned At Youth Rodeo Veterans repeat titles; family expectations fulfilled

M

ore than 800 cowboys and cowgirls ran through the gates at the 20th Annual International Finals Youth Rodeo in Shawnee, Oklahoma, but only a handful filled their dreams of gold buckles and paychecks.

Two rookies on their first trip to the IFYR won titles, and three champions from 2011 repeated their feats. For many of the champions, their success came with hard work and tears as they realized their practice paid off.

The 20th Annual IFYR paid out over $200,000 in money and prizes, and Bloomer Trailers awarded a one-year lease for a trailer to the winning boys all-around

and girls all-around champions.

Boys All-Around, Steer Wrestling, and Saddle Bronc Riding Champion: Garrett Smith, Rexburg, ID

Idaho cowboy Garrett Smith made a clean sweep of the steer wrestling and saddle bronc riding events to win the titles and wrap up the All-Around championship, too.

The Rexburg, Idaho cowboy had a time of 15.8 seconds on three head to win the steer wrestling, and scored 147.5 points on two head to win the saddle bronc riding.

With his two titles, he also took the All-Around championship.

Beer, Broncs, Divorce and Trucks

hat is kind of a catchy title if I don’t say so myself and you can bet there can be a lot of “Dirt” covered in any of these four words. Now, if you mix any of these ingredients together, you can imagine the stories that would unfold. However, each one by itself can have effects on each of our lives in a pretty big way.

Looking at the first of the four demons above, beer, or any alcoholic drink for that matter, can be devastating. Now, I like a ‘cold one’ just as much as the next guy, but as I have grown older, I have realized the negative effects it can have. Not only physically, but it can get you in a whole lot of trouble when you mix drinking with driving. I can only think of one person I know who has never done this at least once in their lives, and a whole lot of others who do it way too often. I also know, now that I have four boys, how important it is to be responsible for not only yourself, but for the sake of everyone else on the road. I don’t have anything against those who want to have a good time every once in a while, but remember when that time

comes to go home, you are not alone on the road.

Next, I love a good bucking horse and there is nothing better than a bareback or saddle bronc rider square-jawed and sitting pretty in the middle of one.

However, I also like a good wreck and broncs seem to fill my desire to see someone piled up in a heap of dirt and dust. For bronc riders, it is a little less exciting because they often know when enough is enough and when to hit the eject button. However, when a team roper or a barrel racer happens to get in a mix with a bucking horse, there is often a good chance for a wreck. Now I don’t want to see anyone hurt, but you have to agree it is always a good sight when a heeler turns the corner in the middle of a run to find his horse ducking his head and humping his back. The wreck is on and you can bet the outcome will be pretty good. So hey, all of you timed event cowboys and cowgirls, get there early, warm ‘em up slow and tighten your cinches, you never know when you will make my day.

Heading to what might be the worst of things mentioned above, divorce is not a laughing matter. Although there have been a slew of country songs about it, people have laughed divorce off as part of life and some have been through one, two, three or even more. There is a whole lot of carnage in any relationship that goes south. I have found I don’t think about divorce very often because I have a

great woman who I love and go home to every night. I have, though, seen couples go through the “Big D” and I have to say, none of them were pretty. I don’t believe there is any amount of money, charm or good looks that will keep a marriage tight. It takes a lot of work on both sides to stay married, but like everything, the more hard work put into it, the better it will be. So, head home today with a mushy card or a dozen roses and surprise your spouse by letting them know how much you love them.

On to the last demon of this article, trucks. Being a part of the rodeo community, trucks are part of our lives.

We all drive trucks because we need them and nothing makes me madder than when mine breaks down. I spent, or should I say, each month I spend a wad of cash on a truck that in my opinion was way over-priced in the first place. With that said, it should last me a while without breaking down or needing repairs. However, there are times when problems with our trucks are overlooked or unknown and that can become deadly. So be careful about what you do to your truck, have it serviced often and crawl under it and give it a good inspection every once in a while. You never know what can go wrong when heading down the road at 80 mph.

E R C O A R EP R NM NBHA SUMMER UPDATE

A

s most of you know by now, the equine VS has surfaced again in our state. District #01 and #02 are requiring current health certificates to enter their events. It’s probably a good idea to have a health certificate no matter where you go. As of this writing, we do not have official quarantines or health paper requirements on inter-state travel from the New Mexico livestock board, but they have asked we pass along some common sense advice to keep this virus from spreading: • If your horse has any symptoms, contact your vet immediately and isolate that animal. Keep him separate from your healthy horses to minimize the risk of contamination in your own barn.

• Handle your sick horse last, and use disposable gloves.

• Leave your sick horses at home. Please don’t risk infecting a large group of horses at an event.

• Don’t share water or feed buckets with any horses outside your barn. If possible bring your own water. It’s not a good idea to share/loan any bits, either AS THE VIRUS IS SPREAD BY SALIVA. Visit the website of the New Mexico Livestock Board, http://nmlbonline.com/ for updated information on the current outbreak in New Mexico.

During the busy summer months, don’t forget to do a pre-trip check on your trailer before you hit the road. Tire pressure is really important during these hot months; we all know it’s no fun having a blow-out in 100 degree weather!

Check on those brake lights and turn signals; if you don’t know a light is out, an officer of the law will be happy to

THE

share that information with you.

Our state finals are rapidly approaching, and it’s shaping up to be one great weekend! We have saddle sponsors for the open, and buckles will be awarded in the senior and youth. We hope to have several vendors that weekend, too. Of course we will have the open poles after the Saturday race which has proven to be a very popular event.

Our finals weekend will again be held at Lonnie and Patty Wright’s Rockin’ Horse Ranch in Moriarty. They have lots of room for parking, a great facility, and excellent ground in the indoor pen. I’m looking forward to seeing all the New Mexico members at the finals, October 12, 13 and 14!

Don’t forget, you must attend three district sanctioned races to qualify for the finals this year.

In addition, don’t forget to thank your district directors for all they do for you members! Help them out when you can, it makes a world of difference. They work very hard to make sure you have a race to run.

Stay healthy and safe journeys! Keep the cans up and bring home the cash!

— Francie Lebow, state director, NM NBHA

Wild West Days Barrel Race

PHOTOS BY KEITH HART – www.faithfoto.com

A

total of 170 barrel races crossed the electric eye for the annual Wild West Days Rodeo NBHA Barrel Race.

Barrel racers came from Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Texas to attend this event. The weather was perfect, and the ground was great according to the barrel racers. The numbers were slightly down this year for all the Wild West events and the rodeo committee felt it was due to the VS horse virus. Each and every horse had to be inspected by veterinarians before they could enter the grounds; this was to keep every horse safe.

ALL-AROUND

A lot of high priced horses were running and most contestants were glad to see the vet check. The veterinarians, Dr. Merayo, Dr. Becky Anderson and Dr. Frank Anderson donated their time for the entire Wild West Days Rodeo, and donated part of the funds from the Health Certificates that were issued to horse owners to “Tough Enough to Wear Pink.”

The Biggest money winner was Denise Chambliss, $1,569 and a saddle; 2D saddle winner was Shawnda Elkins; 3D saddle winner was Erin Hald; 4D saddle winner was Trudy Dean. Foldable Wagons were awarded to the Seniors 1-D Geneva Tsoularakis; 2D Freda Johnson,; 3D Cathy Grey; 4D Lucinda Bearce. Digital cameras were awarded to Youth winners, 1D Jorie Howell; 2D Meygan McMillian; 3D Payson Hicks and 4D Mckenzie Hicks.

Congratulations to everyone who came out to the Wild West Days Rodeo NBHA Barrel Race!

It’s something to be celebrated.”

Scamper is easily defined by his performance record, which was virtually perfect. Apart from the 10 world championships in the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association, he teamed with James to earn National Finals Rodeo average titles in 1984, 1986, 1987, 1989, 1990 and 1993.

The duo won countless circuit and major rodeo championships on their way to earnings of well over $1 million. Scamper was inducted into the ProRodeo Hall of Fame in Colorado Springs, Colo., in 1996.

Together Scamper and James defined an era of barrel racing and their famous roundwinning bridleless ride in the seventh round of the 1985 National Finals Rodeo perhaps best epitomizes the relationship between horse and rider; a one-in-a-million partnership that was loyal and true to the end.

Defying all odds, the unassuming bay raced his way into the hearts of millions, taking a shy ranch girl from Clayton, N.M., with him. From feedlot pony to equine legend, Scamper’s conformation, attitude and mental and physical toughness endeared him to the public. His smooth-asglass style coupled with great speed made him a formidable horse for the competition to face.

ALL-AROUND

Herd On The Street

I

hope you’ve heard the good news that several scientists have concluded that natural trans-fats in beef are NOT harmful to health and may, in fact, be beneficial. The researchers gave their report at the 10th Congress for the International Society for the Study of Fatty Acids and Lipids. (Boy, does that sound like a wild party!)

Dr. Spencer Proctor of the University of Alberta said, “The research indicates that consuming these natural fats as part of a balanced diet is not a health concern. On the contrary, there is increasing evidence these are “good fats” and could be fundamentally healthenhancing. They should not be an unintended target of the bid to rid the diet of trans-fats.” He continued, “There is no association between natural transfat intake and cholesterol dependent cardiovascular risk factors.”

All this means is that there is absolutely no good reason why a person shouldn’t eat beef! In light of this exciting news we went out amongst the herd of humanity on the mean streets of a large metropolis to get the reaction.

Vegetarian - You mean I’ve been choking down arugula, tofu and fried eggplant lasagna for five years when I could have been eating filet mignon?

Doctor - This news could be bad for MY health. I’m wearing these dark sunglasses, fake beard and fireman’s uniform so that none of my patients will recognize me. For years I’ve been telling them they had to give up red meat or else they’d suffer a fatal heart attack, and now you tell me that was all a bunch of poppycock? They’re gonna kill me if they ever find out!

Slacker at a Sports Bar - Darn, dude.

Does this mean PETA is going to stop

showing photos of anorexic hot babes in Hollywood with all their clothes off?

Over the Hill Hollywood Actress Turned Celebrity Chef/Best Selling Author - Even though I wrote in my last cookbook that beef was bad for you this news actually comes at a good time because that book was a bigger flop than my last movie. Now I can reinvent myself and come out with an all-beef cookbook telling how I rediscovered red meat and how good it is for you. Maybe I’ll even land a spot on Ellen’s TV show!

Oh yummy, I smell a bestseller.

Tofu - Does this mean we have to go back to being soybeans?

Liberal Greenie Activist - This is all a Republican conspiracy and a bunch of propaganda dug up by the religious right, the Daughters of the American Revolution, NASCAR-loving, gun toting NRA members and the military establishment who want to destroy mother earth with their Weber grills and mesquite briquets. Just because some scientists had a bunch of proof doesn’t mean it’s true, you know?

Poultry Pluckers - I suppose it’s great news for beef but they still don’t have drumsticks! Or giblets!

Or McNuggets!

Contestant on The Biggest Loser You know, I had a sneaky feeling all along that it wasn’t beef that made me weigh 420 pounds. Something in the back of my mind told me it could have been all those 64 ounce sodas, giant bags of candy, six pizzas a day and super-sized cheese fries with gobs of ranch dressing on top.

Discredited Anti-grazing Activist Next you’ll tell me that cows fertilize the grass, improve soils, reduce fuel loads in forests and on grazing land, and

help promote habitat for endangered species. All those researchers may have scientific proof to back up their claims but I know better. And I live in a big city, read the New York Times and Washington Post, visited a national park out West once, and am a member of the Sierra Club and The Nature Conservancy. Who are you going to believe?

Typical Man On The Street - What’s a trans-fat?

Rancher - Beef! It’s What’s for Dinner, Once Again! wwwLeePittsbooks.com
