Wild Thing

2010 Wild Thing champion, Spud Jones sticking it on one for 90 points.

Rain or Shine – The Event That’s Unstoppable! It has become known that Gallup, New Mexico and the Wild Thing bull riding have the biggest and best fans in the country.

o prove it, this year’s event topped out with over 3,500 spectators on Friday night and more than $5,000, and close to 90% capacity on Saturday who watched the nights event in a steady downpour – now that is dedication. “I have never seen so many umbrellas in all my life,” said Wild Thing producer Larry Peterson. The rain did not stop this year’s fans, nor

the ton of talented bull riders who came out to try to win part of the $24,000 in prize money. The July 9 and 10 event had riders from all across the country competing on one of the best pens of bucking bulls anywhere. From Sammy Andrews Rodeo Company’s first string, Owen Washburn’s top 12 bulls and Martin Baca’s top ten bulls, every contestant who nodded his head had a chance to fill his pockets if he could stay in the middle for eight ticks of the clock. The action was nowhere short of exciting on both Friday and Saturday nights. The first night was pleasant with a smaller crowd, good weather and a steady stream of talented cowboys making their bids for the top spot. Saturday turned grey and as spectators poured into the event, so did the rain. However, in great spirits,

those who hunkered down to enjoy the event witnessed lots of great muddy action in the arena. From the women’s balloon and sack races that helped entertain to high marked rides, the event showcased everything Wild Thing fans had come to enjoy. Some of the best in the business came to compete. From some of today’s top PBR talents to those who have seen the lights of Las Vegas and the PRCA National Finals Rodeo, the spectators had a chance to see a ton of today’s best bull riders in action. The bull rider on everyone’s mind to watch was last year’s Wild Thing winner and PBR sensation, Ryan McConnel. McConnel did his job of continued on page 2

Competitorial

oming down the home stretch of the summer rodeo season, I was all set to focus this month’s column on the timeless joy of winning. It was inspiring to see two middle-aged, team roping stalwarts win one of the most coveted titles in the sport, and the genuine depth of joy that it brought them. Of course I’m talking about the recently crowned champions of the Bob Feist Invitational, J.D. Yates and Jay Wadhams. Here are two guys who had already established themselves as household names within the team roping/rodeo community, and yet you could see that even with a full checklist of past accomplishments, winning the coveted BFI title meant something special to them…. It was really nice to see such a sincere level of joy. However, after the tragic events of the past weekend which saw the life of one of our own snuffed out, it seemed more fitting to focus on trying to find a way to come to terms with the delicate, and oft taken-for-granted, balance between life and death. As I’m sure most everyone in the rodeo community has heard by now, Kenny McOsker was killed at the Rodeo De

Wild Thing

Gallisteo this past weekend. It’s always a sad piece of business to have to write about, but especially in this case as the effects will linger well into the future. McOsker wasn’t your typical rodeo hand. He was an educated professional with a real job and a young family… including one on the way. He was an intelligent guy who understood the risks he took every time he climbed down on top of one. Edging past the prime age of the typical roughstock contestant, he undoubtedly had let go of any illusions of being one of the world’s elite, but still did what he did because he loved to do it and because he was a man who called his own shots. I’m sure some will mumble that a man holding his place in life was acting selfishly in continuing to do what he did, knowing that it was not only himself he put at risk but also the future of his family. But I, for one, completely get it. This country, the world in fact, has moved forward in a positive direction over the eons of time because of guys like Kenny. Men who were willing to risk everything in an effort to gain a unique sense of conquer and accomplishment.

I have said many times that I believe the number one reason some men are so driven to compete, in everything, is because it’s part of their genetic makeup. Nature has found a way to design some men in such a way that they are willing to accept risks, regardless of the outcome. These are the men who were slayers of dragons, fought off saber-toothed tigers with a knife made of bone, and found a way to force themselves to fight their way across the sands at Iwo Jima knowing the odds were against them. They are known as heroes to some, soldiers to others, and yes, even bronc riders to still more. But there is one thing they all are….men. It’s offensive to me to hear anyone question the motives of a guy like Kenny while they live within the safe and candy-assed confines of their own little protected world. Yeah….I know that in the big scheme of things, continually pressing yourself to stay on the topside of a bucking horse for eight seconds at a time is kind of senseless. I mean it really accomplishes nothing at all when you get right down to it….or does it? Over the annuls of time, it’s been men….men that carried the same spirit

like the one Kenny had that pushed mankind forward. Yes, sometimes it may have been foolish, and no doubt many men have fallen in the pursuit of seemingly senseless endeavors, but you cannot deny the fact that without true men… men who are masters of their own domain…there might be an earth filled with a bunch of fat saber-toothed tigers and a few scattered and scared humans cowering in caves. Rest in peace, Kenny

entertainment, riding his draw to a score of 88 points. The high marked ride earned him second place behind legendary Spud Jones who topped his bull for a 90 point ride. Like years past, the payout was tremendous due to only a handful of cowboys making the 8-second whistle. Five out of the ninety entries went home with payout money to show for their efforts and the payout was awesome. Jones who claimed the 2010 title pocketed a check worth $6,768 and McConnel took home a check for more than $5,600 dollars. Winning third was Shilo Amiatte who rode his bull for 85 points and won $4,512 in cash. Chisolm Gross earned $3,384 for a fourth-place score of 778 points and Casey Sterlin was the fifth and final winner who

rode his bull to a score of 74 points. The 2010 Wild Thing, although damp, chalked up another success story. Big money paid out, huge turnout of spectators and two nights filled with the best in bull riding. No way can there be another event like the Wild Thing anywhere in the country. From the fans to the money and the best in the business inside the arena, the event is captivating and one of the best you will ever have a chance to see!

ilan, New Mexico rancher, Jerry Elkins, likes to rope. More than that he is pretty proud of the young horse he is riding. The horse took him to the pay window at the Lasso Del Norte in Las Vegas, New Mexico the weekend of June 24 through the 27. It not only put some money in Elkins’ pocket but the young horse won his first saddle. Elkins’ older horse is injured but it seems this young horse is on the way to making a name for him. Elkins and partner, Ernie Ortega, from Belen, New Mexico won the Average in the #11 with a time of 35.31 on four head of steers during the Lasso Del Norte weekend. Chasing very close behind them was Matthew Silva and his partner, Cade Passig who placed second with a time of 35.95 on four head to take second place in the Average of the #11. “We drew some really good steers and I had a good heeler behind me,” Elkins said. “It all worked out and it was a really good roping. Having nice cattle to rope really makes a difference and it sure worked out for us.” Elkins not only brought home a new saddle but the team split $6,288 and received a National Shoot-Out worth $6,000 in USTRC Flex Earnings. Elkins has been a header now for about ten years and he likes hauling and making the most of the New Mexico ropings close to home. “I like to go and enjoy the roping and the people,” Elkins explained. “This is first time I’ve done this well at this roping. I been coming here a long time and it makes it a lot better when you win.” You could hear the satisfaction in his voice.

USTRC Lasso del Norte Elkins tries to get to the practice pen at least two, three or four times a week. He and his partners slow everything down and work on basics and making their horses work. They practice every chance they get. “Our steers last longer when we keep everything slowed down and focus on making our horses work,” he explained. “We just have a good time and try to work on the basics.” Elkins feels his greatest challenge is probably making his horses work. That is one reason he practices like he does. He values the horsemanship involved in team roping and his young horse is really doing well since his older horse is out of commission. He is pretty proud of the new saddle this young horse brought home. “I want my horses to work,” Elkins said. “I want them to score good, run fast after cattle and I want to be able to handle cattle for my heelers.” Elkins also offers that advice as well to young ropers coming up. “Young kids need to rope the dummy, have fun and get a good horse and practice all they can.” Elkins has been to the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping and plans to go again come October. He commented that the Santa Fe Trail Events Center in Las Vegas is a good facility to rope in, “It is always a well run, good roping.” The National Shoot-Out will be handy to have when he heads to Oklahoma City in the fall. Elkins points out he loves just roping and being around the people but he likes it when he wins as well. His time in the practice pen, his commitment to haul and his desire to just go rope and have a good

time seemed to be the ingredients needed for Elkins’ success in Las Vegas at the Lasso Del Norte. It turned out to be a winning weekend for the roper and he plans to continue to rope as much as he can.

Linden Valley, Great Ropings, Good Times

reat ropings and good times were on tap for all ropers at Linden Valley Arena in Show Low Arizona over the Independence Day weekend in 2010. Patriotism abounded and a new 10’ X 15’ flag was run up the flag pole to show the love of country in the roping community. Let us never forget those that gave of themselves and those multitudes who gave all so that we might enjoy those freedoms. The Perkins family has continued to make improvements to the facilities which were most apparent to kids and their parents with the addition of a playground and basketball court both next to the arena. Seriously, this year a good time really was had by all. Most everybody loves the facilities in Linden Valley! Come try it on for size and see how it fits you and your posse. On Thursday several good ropings for the higher numbered ropers were held and were highlighted by the #13 $10K roping that continues to be a success. From an Open to a #10 roping there was plenty roping for all on Thursday. Friday was a fantastic day for all those ropers who enjoy #11 ropings and the first ever 4th of July weekend truck ever awarded in Arizona. The firsts did not stop there. It was also the first truck awarded to a woman by The Roping Company. Melanie Greymountain teamed with Bahe Henio and Steven Gaona to lock down a tough 2nd and 3rd in the average against a lot of tough ropers. Congratuations to Melanie for winning big on the biggest of American holidays. Saturday saw the makings of six fancy Double-J saddles for six fantastic ropers in the #9 saddle roping. When the dust settled there were in fact 6 stellar ropers waking away with 6 fancy saddles. Sunday, like Friday, was also a day of firsts. It was the first Trailer awarded to #8 ropers ever in the Summer series. Quality #4 and under ropers anxiously vied for the honor of towing the CM 3-Horse trailer back to their stable. In the end Miles Begay teamed with Ross Brun and Alanzo Begay to qualify for the honor and the trailer. Miles said the trailer would replace the family’s vintage trailer and would be a major upgrade. Congratulations to Miles for a fantastic day of roping. All in all the 4th weekend at Linden Valley Arena was a huge success and lends hope for many successful Independence Days yet to come in the cool White Mountains of Arizona. Kay Perkins and his family are continually improving the facilities and it certainly helps that they started with 40 acres and equipment and skills to make it happen. The Roping Company wishes to thank our sponsors and most of all the loyal following of team ropers who chose to rope with us. Until next time, we’ll leave the wraps on for you.

ohn Wayne beat lung cancer in 1964. He died 15 years later after a struggle with cancer of the stomach. During this difficult period, he became passionate about helping others fight “the big C.” In honor of John Wayne, his family created the John Wayne Cancer Foundation (JWCF) to bring courage, strength and grit to the fight against cancer. Since its founding in 1985, JWCF has supported awareness & education programs and support groups. JWCF has supported groundbreaking cancer research and education at the John Wayne Cancer Institute. Please check out www.jwcf.org and www.teamduke.org Louis Johnson was one of the most successful farmers, ranchers and feedlot owners in Arizona history. This did not go unnoticed. You see, The Duke himself also owned a large farm A investments, he in Arizona. When Duke needed someone local to help oversee and protect his asked around about who was the best in the business. He soon had his answer. Duke and Louie thereafter formed a partnership, and friendship, lasting over 20 years. The partnership became famous. By the time it was all said and done, Louie and Duke were partners in a farming operation covering over 14,000 acres, a state of the art feedlot operation running 85,000 head of cattle and a pure bred Hereford ranching operation including the famous 26 Bar ranch near Springerville, Arizona. The partnership also produced the annual 26 Bar bull sale for 18 consecutive years at their headquarters near Stanfield, Arizona. After enjoying very successful lives, both men succumbed to cancer in their later years. The living relatives of both men are actively involved in fund raising for cancer research to this day. Hence the idea behind the Louie and The Duke Classics. The JWCF is the beneficiary of the net proceeds from the events. The 4th Annual Louie and The Duke Classics are happening November 4th thru the 7th, 2010 in Casa Grande, Arizona. If prior Louie and The Duke Classics are any indication, then the 4th annual event should be nothing less than spectacular. For those who don’t know what the Louie and The Duke Classics are: They are a Golf Tournament, a Dinner and Western memorabilia auction and a weekend of Team Roping! Throw in a Saturday night rodeo dance, a carnival for the young (and young at heart) and plenty of great vendors and you have one very fun filled weekend of none other than the Louie and The Duke Classics. It is definitely one of the social events of the year in central Arizona! You are personally invited to attend the “classics” this November. Help Duke and Louie continue their fight against Cancer!

It’s always been a family thing with us.

ll-Around Yates and Wadhams topped the 100team field that this year represented 21 states and Canada with runs of 7.7, 7.97, 8.57, 7.36, 7.77 and 6.55 seconds on their respective steers to beat out BFI reservists Luke Brown and Martin Lucero, who roped six steers in 46.97, by a little over a second. Brown and Lucero earned $95,060 in addition to the reserve champs’ prize package that included Coats Saddles, and Skyline Silversmiths buckles donated by Boot Barn, Purina Mills Inc. and Wells Fargo Bank. The third-place team of Turtle Powell and Jhett Johnson bagged $61,110 for their total time of 47.07 seconds, and were followed in fourth place by Justin Davis and Cole Davison, who roped six steers in 48.01 for $30,555. Wrangler Jeans and Shirts pumped $6,500 in bonus bucks into the Wrangler Round in addition to BFI short-round money. Brown and Lucero, who were the fifth high team back, were 5.95 on their last steer to drag down an additional $9,500, including the Wrangler bonus. The owners of the Best BFI Head and Heel Horses received Lazy “L” Saddles and CSI Pads. BFI officials awarded 2010 Best BFI Head Horse honors to Davis’ 18-yearold palomino Starbert J Man, whose nickname is Hammer. Davis bought the horse as a 4-year-old. His dad, Tommy, got the horse going, and Hammer’s been Justin’s No. 1 the last 10 years. It was Davis and Hammer’s first BFI appearance. “This is the best horse I’ve ever sat on,” Davis said. “He scored perfect on every steer here today. He always runs hard and gives me a good chance. Words can’t describe how much he helped me today. I heeled until 10 years ago. This is the first head horse I ever competed on. He’s part of the family.” The Best BFI Heel Horse in 2010 was Colonel Cal Dee, a 14-year-old sorrel horse who answers to “A” out at the barn. Wadhams heeled on him, though Yates actually owns him. “I keep him for the major rodeos and ropings, and Jay helps me on him at the horse shows,” Yates explained. “Jay has confidence on this horse, so all he has to think about is roping. We get paid to win. Money couldn’t buy this horse, because the horse show world is our business.” “We call him A, because he has a huge A brand on his left hip,” Wadhams said. “He doesn’t get quick and never gets short. He just fits me. I like a horse with a little longer stride, and that’s him.” Yates rode the Best BFI Head Horse of the 2005 BFI, Cathys Dividend, to the 2010 title. Yates bought “Buster,” an 18-year-old bay horse, as a 3-year-old Father’s Day present for Daddy Dick 15 years ago. “I hadn’t roped a steer on him when I asked my dad to bring me a head horse here nine years ago,” J.D. said. “Bobby Harris and I won the first round here in 2001 on the first steer I ever ran on him (Yates and Harris also placed third in the average that year). At a roping like this, a horse that scores good and can run gives someone like me a heck of an advantage. I compete a lot, but I’m horse showing these days and not rodeoing. A week before this roping we put everything else aside to get in the BFI frame of mind.” Yates dedicated the win to his young friend and fellow Coloradan Cody Buffalo, 26, who is battling cancer. “Cody got to come rope here last year for the first time,” J.D. said. “He’s going through radiation

and chemo now, and I wish him and his family all the best. Winning this roping is great, but we miss having him here, wish him luck and hope to see him back here next year.” Classic Ropes and Boot Barn awarded young guns Quinn Kesler and T.J. McCauley a $2,000 bonus for being the team that finished just out of the average money in seventh place. Kelsey Parchman and Caleb Twisselman roped the fourth fastest time in BFI history to win round four in 4.9 seconds and cash the $2,000 Fast Time bonus sponsored by Justin Boots, Priefert, Silver Legacy and Coors Original. This year’s Fast Time team also received Cactus Saddlery saddles. Parchman and Twisselman also won the third round in 5.06 seconds. The 4.46-second BFI Fast Time record was set in 2008 by Coleman Proctor and Jake Long. Champion’s Choice buckles were again awarded in every round. The “BFI 33 Club” stands strong. Team roping legends who haven’t missed the BFI books in 33 years include Allen Bach, who won the 1979 BFI with Brian Burrows; Denny Watkins, who won it with David Motes in 1981; Mike Beers, who won the 1987 BFI with Dee Pickett; and Walt Woodard, who topped the 2008 BFI with Clay Tryan. The BFI is “Open to the World,” and held in conjunction with the “Wildest, Richest Rodeo in the West,” the milliondollar Reno Rodeo, which this year runs June 17-26 Announcers Bob Tallman, Reed Flake and Ross Wagner called the BFI action, and Harry Rose and PhilipA Murrah flagged the roping. Steve Branco and Danny Martinez served as the line judges. Flying T Cattle Company of Carrisa Plains, Calif., provided the cattle, which were run over an 18-foot score and out of a 19-foot box. The Silver Legacy Resort Casino is the official headquarters of the BFI. Other major sponsors of the 2010 BFI included Wrangler, Justin Boots, Boot Barn, Dodge Rodeo, Priefert Ranch Equipment, Cactus Ropes, Champion’s Choice Buckles, Coors Original, Purina Mills, Running P Ropes and Saddles, Classic Ropes, Coats Saddlery, B&W Trailer Hitches, Cactus Saddlery, Lazy “L” Saddles and Ropers Sports News.

Fathers Day Truck Roping First for Winnemucca Event Center

reed of the “Load em in the Dark” cattle company, brought eight saddles, rope bags, ‘Load em’ jackets and a 2010 one ton – crew cab Dodge Dully Pickup Truck, to be given away, at this Fathers Day Team Roping. In less then an hour’s time, on Sunday morning, 500 plus Team Ropers had signed up to (hopefully) become the proud owner of that new truck… Even though the weather was close to perfect outside, there were, as always in Winnemucca, exceptional arena conditions on the inside. Tommy Lee Cattle of Fallon, Nevada had delivered a fantastic pen of roping steers and at the prescribed time of 9:30 a.m. the competition began. Ropers from around the western states had ventured to the Winnemucca facility for this ‘first time’ in Northern Nevada event. Ropers from Utah, Idaho, Oregon, California and all points of Nevada were signed up and warming up horses before the first steer was ever released. The anticipation and excitement of a team roping of this extravagance was not going to be missed, as was evident by the 507 Teams that were in contention for the prizes. Local roper, Kirk Sherburn and Jessie Northrop of Oregon, roped the ‘good roping’ to eventually go on to win the average. Outside roper such as David Summit, Pastor of the ‘Riders and Ropers for Christ’ Church out of Ukiah,

California, came into the short round in forth place only to set and watch his position slowly slip away to a non placing number. However, high in spirit David Summit remarked, “I’ll be back if they have it again”… The Load em in the Dark cattle company is a truly ‘Family run ‘ operation with owner operator Chris Freed at the Helm, Son Pace Freed doing the Flagging, Daughter Shelby helping in the office, and Wife Jane Freed doing the announcing and score keeping. Joyce Sewell, Holly Heicstuman, Carmen Bengoa, and Chuck Nichol helped round out the office efficiency. The operation is ‘roping perfection’ with the efficiency that all ropers come to expect with a Chris Freed evnt. When I asked Chris Freed if there would be a repeat performance of this roping next year he replied, “I think so”…

USTRC Western Colorado Championships

Story courtesy of SuperLooper Magazine

irtland, New Mexico heeler, Lane Yazzie, may be almost typical of most 18-year-old high school seniors. Then again, he probably isn’t. There is no question Yazzie likes to rope. He likes heeling and has been doing it since he was about thirteen or so. When he roped at the Western Colorado Championships in Grand Junction, Colorado the weekend of June 18 through the 20 everyone kept telling him to rope with Las Animas header, Tina Godfrey. When he finally relented and talked to her the pair clicked and it came together for them in the #11 division. They won the Average with a time of 35.66 on four head of steers. It was a roping Yazzie had not planned to enter. The duo pocketed $4,144 in cash, took home new saddles, and a National Shoot-Out worth $6,000 in USTRC Flex Earnings. It was Yazzie’s second saddle and this one is still sitting in his house. “I haven’t ridden it yet,” he laughed. “It will probably be in the house for awhile.” He figures he and Godfrey will rope together again somewhere down the road. Yazzie figures his greatest pressure as a heeler comes from trying to rope too quickly. “It isn’t hard for me now to track up on cattle,” he explained. “But sometimes it is frustrating when I try to rope too quick.” Although Yazzie doesn’t have access to roping steers right now he does make several jackpots here and there. Riding a seven-yearold mare he trained himself Yazzie feels ranch work has been the best for making her the horse she is. “We use her at the ranch and I rope and drag calves to the branding fire when we work cattle,” he said. “I got her in Durango, Colorado and have had her since she was four.” She is the only horse he has had and the pair is a winning combination. Yazzie is going into his senior year at Kirtland Central High School this fall. The interesting thing about Yazzie is the other sport he works at. Yazzie is a high school wrestler and he compares the discipline and approach of wrestling with roping. His advice for roping seemed to mirror his approach to his high school sport. “You have to practice,” Yazzie said. “It takes a lot of practice and never ever give up.” Yazzie was third in the state in high school wrestling. With his grandfather’s support Yazzie spends a great deal of time roping the dummy and focusing on the ground work.

Yazzie and his grandfather seem to be on the same page when it comes to the ground work . The disciplines in roping and wrestling, no doubt, have some common attributes. “I practice having the same swing every time,” Yazzie explained about his ground work. “Roping the dummy lets me do that and then when I go to my horse it helps me do that as well.” The Western Colorado Championships held in Grand Junction proved to be a pretty good week for Yazzie. He also placed 5th in the #13 with partner, Richard Huxley with a time of 42.10 on four head of steers to win a Regional Shoot-Out worth $2,000 in USTRC Flex Earnings. Yazzie commented that the roping in Grand Junction was a good one and the facility is a good place to rope. “The cattle were nice,” Yazzie said. “It was a good roping. I went there last year but didn’t do any good. This was a good roping and I will use my Regional Shoot-Out in Albuquerque.” He also hopes to save some money so he can go to the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping in October and put his National Shoot-Out and Flex Earnings to good use. Looking forward to finishing up his senior year in high school Yazzie hopes he can rope and continue his wrestling in Durango where he hopes to attend college. There are probably two great loves in the world for Yazzie; one is team roping and the other is wrestling.

My Cowboy Heroes Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

Cowboy High Dive

o you’d like to be a cowboy, why is “Sthat; do you know? I don’t see nothin’ a-holdin’ ya back, go on – go!” Four a.m. and more racket than a freight train in Phoenix. Jake and Clay had been barking steadily for the last hour or so. No sleep to be had with noise like that going on. Jack Breaker hurled a few choice words out the window at the dogs and threw the covers off. Red eyed and still tired. The Kid, hearing Jack was now awake, asked from the next room. “What do you reckon those dogs are so worked up about, Mister Jack?” “Huntin’ season, Kid. Today is opening day of Dove season and their barking at vehicles haulin’ hunters to favorite spots. It’ll be light soon enough; we just as well get up and have a cup.” Kid went to feed the horses a bait of oats, luring them out of the horse trap while Jack put water on to boil. He stared through the kitchen window of the desolate ranch house and noticed a pair of headlights turn off the main road towards headquarters. Had to be Pat O’Leary, range boss for Running R Cattle Company, owned by none other than Rooster Reynolds - cow trader extraordinaire. “Pat must’ve got up before three a.m. to arrive at this hour from Bend on the Rio,” thought Jack out loud. “That ole codger’s gotta be about 80 and still running circles around men half his age! Does he ever sleep?” Pat came by a couple times a week to check on the Flat Top Mountain division of Running R Cattle Company which was run by Jack Breaker and assisted by, for two days now, the youngster only referred to as “Kid.” Pat spent the rest of the week driving to other ranches owned by the Running R which were spread across half the Arizona Desert. Over a hot cup of coffee, Jack and Pat contemplated plans for the day and week ahead. Kid listened intently; hanging on to every word the experienced cowmen spoke. He wanted to learn. After coffee and a quick cow camp breakfast, Jack told Kid to take the jeep and check the south fence line for cut wires. “If you find any cuts, look for tracks. But don’t go through the fence, remember it’s reservation on that side,” said Jack the cautionary. “What are your plans this morning?” Pat asked of Jack. “Well I’d better check on Foothill Well. Every year seems like a bunch of hunters wind up shooting everything in sight. If I don’t get ‘em out of there early, things will get all tore up and them spooky cattle won’t come in to drink for several days.” “But you can’t shoot within a quarter mile of a residence or a livestock/game water,” exclaimed the Kid. “I learned as much in hunter’s safety class.” “You’re the only SOB who paid attention that day, Kid,” replied Pat gruffly. “Now let’s

get goin’; we’re burnin’ daylight.” It was almost light enough to see as Jack saddled Triple Sec for the morning’s ride. “Come on, you deadly mixture of bronc and tonic, let’s see what you’re made of today.” But the horse was a perfect gentleman, looked at his master with a roving eye, snorted, un-kinked the hump in his back and took to his duties with no complaints. “Gonna be good today, huh?” Jack struck a long trot for Foothill Well, five miles to the southeast. The sun was an hour high as Jack approached the well, but he’d heard the shotgun blasts for quite a while now. “Hunters tend to get down in that arroyo west of the windmill …shoot from there while using mesquites for cover,” said Jack to Triple Sec. “I believe I’ll just ease into the water lot, climb top of that ole mill and from the platform I can look down on ‘em in the wash. I’ll have me a better view that-a-way and I can deliver my speech just once.” Jack reached the mill platform; he stood up to survey the situation. At that very instant a hunter below was following a covey of dove across the skyline with his ever- ready shotgun. “No,” thought Jack, “he wouldn’t!” But sure enough, as the windmill tower, birds, and hunter’s gun all came into perfect alignment, he let go a double shot from the 12 gauge! Oblivious to the man and mill beyond his line of fire! Jack guessed it coming and hit the deck just in time. Birdshot went whoosh as it passed, peppering the windmill blades. The next instant Jack jumped up, trembling from an adrenaline surge. He went to cussing one very surprised hunter. “You sorry excuse for a trespassing, bird brain, no lookin’, trigger happy SOB! You just shot at me!” Startled, the hunter dropped his shotgun and took off running up the arroyo. Like that was going help. Jack now had an audience, however. About twelve hunters were all standing from their concealments in the arroyo staring up at him. “You town-raised, egg suckin’ idiots! Don’t you know you can’t hunt this close water? Besides being against the law, you’ll upset nature here for days to come…cows won’t come to water cause they’ll be spooked, coyotes will be thicker than ever as they hang around feasting on birds you missed picking up…which will be another reason the cows won’t come in, and I’ll wind up cleaning your stinking trash for a week! Get your butts out of here and hunt somewhere else…like maybe somewhere you have permission!” The slack-jawed hunters stared in amazement at a crazy cowboy standing 15 feet above ground on a windmill tower

delivering a brazen speech. It never occurred to either that a dozen of them were armed in contrast to one who stood boldly above them all without any weapon visible. Hunters fled the arroyo like they were late for an important meeting. As they left, Jack hollered down to one of them who was about to pick up his buddy’s fallen shotgun, “Leave it right there, Mister. I don’t appreciate being shot at and that idiot doesn’t deserve to own a gun.” The hunter shouted an untoward cuss word, picked up the shotgun and took off running. Jack intended to give chase but as he hastily turned toward the ladder his spurs got tangled up. He let out a long yell as he went over the edge. The only thing saved Jack Breaker from breakin’ his neck that morning was a full storage of water below. With a big splash, Jack was quickly reminded of the theory of gravity. The commotion made Triple Sec run off even though he was hobbled. Jack could hear the hearty laughter of hunters as they retreated. Half hour later Jack caught the wayward horse grazing on the flat a short distance away. Almost dry now, he could do nothing else but laugh at his predicament. “I knew you’d try me some time today but I didn’t foretell it this way! Well ole pard, what do ya reckon we’ll do for an encore? Make you a deal; I won’t go high diving if you won’t run off any more. Deal? Now how about me and you prowling the old road as we circle back towards headquarters…going that route we ought to make it by about lunch.” Triple Sec snorted at the semi dry cowhand, still not quite trusting what he saw. Wet cowboy stinks to a horse. The old road wasn’t used much anymore except by smugglers and Border Patrol. It was hard travel and out of the way; traversed some pretty rough country along the foothills between Flat Top Mountain and the valley below. Was an old mining road 75 years ago, Jack had been told. Cattle liked that country, though. By 10 o’clock Jack had forgotten all about his early morning swim and was trotting along humming a tune for Triple Sec’s amusement - a light hearted cowboy once again. He then came to a gate left wide open. Wasn’t supposed to be. Jack had no sooner fastened the gate latch than he heard a noise behind him. “Agua…Agua,” said the leader. Jack recognized the man as a coyote (smuggler) right away. “You know where the wells are on this ranch just as well as I do,” Jack replied. “And I’ve told you before to shut my dadblamed gates!” Jack spoke to the man in English because he knew good and well this one was proficient in the language.

“But Senor, we did not leave your gate open. It was la Migra (Border Patrol). They pass by here maybe half hour ago. Now how about some agua?” “You know the way to Antelope Well. Now get!” “You gringo, you’re lucky I do not take your horse for my own. You know one of my compadres shot the deputy over by Antelope Well a few weeks ago. You should not mess with me or my compadres…we are connected.” “Yep, partner, and you know if you and your compadres mess with me or my kind too much we fight back. Messing with a full grown man ain’t quite like messing with kids fresh out of lawman school. Plus who in the heck would keep up the waters you guys use across the deserts if there weren’t any cowboys keeping ‘em full?” “I know, so this time we let it pass,” replied smuggler the wiser. “But you just remember; control of this area is by cartel…” The speech cut short; momentary silence. “All this time I thought my boss owned the land, range improvements, waters and grazing rights to the property around here…” Jack stepped aboard Triple Sec and left. Topping another hill a mile away 15 minutes later, Jack saw a white pickup with a green stripe stranded in the road below. “Looks like la Migra has a flat,” he commented to Triple Sec, “you don’t suppose they got it driving where they oughtn’t to have? Ha! I bet they’ve got a likely story.” As he approached, Border Patrolman New York, New York commanded him to stop. “Hey you, I need your horse! We’ve got a flat here and can’t get out on the radio. I need to get to the top of that hill and see if I can get a signal to call for a tire guy.” “What is it about people wanting to volatile my horse today?” Jack wondered aloud and then said to Mister Migra, “First off you ain’t a-gettin’ my horse. Second off you need to learn to shut the gates on this ranch and thirdly, why in the heck don’t you just change the tire yourself? You’ve got a spare underneath.” “That’s not my job,” replied the hailer, “and I don’t have to shut any danged ole gate I don’t want to when I’m in pursuit…and are you denying a United States official?” “Nope, I’m denying an idiot. But if you’ll hold this horse right here, I’ll change the tire just so you can get the heck out here. By the way, the illegals you’re after are back near the gate you just left open!” Jack changed the tire and the unappreciative agent handed the reins back saying, “We’re outta here!” “What about them illegals?” asked Jack the astounded. “Shift change. We’ll let our replacements know about them.” “But they’ll be miles from here or maybe even in Pittsburg by then. You’ll never find them.” “Not my problem,” he who hailed from Brooklyn curtly replied.

ll-Around An hour later, Jack rode into headquarters whistling softly to Triple Sec. Lunch time. Three cowboys sat for their noonday meal - hot coffee, cold ham, cheese and crackers - and more hot coffee. “Tell me about your morning, Kid,” Jack urged. “How’d things look on the edge of the nation?” “Well, I only got about 6 miles of fence looked at, Mister Jack. Had to fix three different places cut clean through! Plenty of tracks too…human and cattle. Almost had a chance to cross over some of our cattle grazing just south of the fence line, but of course I was a-foot.” “Kid, you got a craving to see jail?” said Pat O’Leary. “If you go across that fence line and drive cattle back you’ll likely get arrested for trespassing and livestock theft! That’s a sovereign nation over there and they’ve got their own rules.” “But it’s our cattle, Mister Pat…” “Don’t matter none, Kid, there’s different rules over there. Ole Albert Antone, the stockman who tends that part of the reservation is a good partner; he’s the equivalent of a cowhand just like us. If you see him a-horseback, you’ve got no A problem. Let him come get his cattle from this side and he’ll help you get ours from over there. But once you get over his pay grade, the bureaucracy kicks in. It’s just like

I asked what they meant by ‘natural “How many head went south?” species’ and was told ‘anything twas here “Not quite sure but according to what before cattle.’ I reminded them precious few Mister Jack showed me, I’d guess about species living without much water were the 10 head.” only things here before cattle.

Pat the inquisitive. “Who me? I plead the fifth…don’t know Jack recounted the morning at length, what in the heck you’re talking about.” omitting a fine detail or two about high A moment of silence, then Kid the diving and horse chasing. At the end he said, innocent swallowed hard, “So just this “I know who cut your fence, Kid, I ran into morning, on this one ranch, we’ve had both sets of culprits on the old road playing a run in with Game and Fish, hide and go seek with one another.

Maybe then we can make a difference in the world, Kid,” said Pat of experience. “Having second thoughts about being a cowboy?” A moment of silence… “Well if you haven’t changed your mind about your chosen occupation, go out and saddle Ol’ Hundred Proof. You and Jack can count strays in the south pasture; see what kind of trading material we’ve got. Next week when I come back, we’ll go visit our neighbors.” As Kid went out, Jack said to Pat, “Go easy on him. We sure don’t see too many 18- year-olds hankerin’ to be cowboys these days.” “And you, Jack, why do you stick with it? You’re not that old, you’re bright and about half sociable when you want to be. Me on the other hand, I’m pushin’ 80, it’s too late to do anything else, but you, Jack? Why do ya’ do it?” “Where else could I have this much fun and still get paid?” Jim Olson © 2010

he Sport of rodeo is alive and going strong inside the state of New Mexico. From Jr. competitions to the ranks of the PRCA and PBR, the Land of Enchantment has been dishing out some of the best in the business for many years. Taking a look into the recent National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association National Finals event, or what is better known as the CNFR (College National Finals Rodeo) held in Casper, Wyoming, you will see the state of New Mexico earned four national championships and several other top placing. The first of the big winners came from Tucumcari and the Meslands Community College (MESACC). Sydni Blanchard finished at the top of the leader-board and earned the national Barrel Racing championship. Blanchard turned in four solid, fast times including one of 14.16 seconds in the final round that earned her the championship. Here four run average time of 57.87 was only .11 seconds faster than the reserves champions time, Tiedeman, Rachel from South Dakota State University. In addition to the National Championhsip, Blanchard also earned the 201 NIRA Rookie of the Year award.

The second and third set of National Champions came for the team roping event. Alsways a tough event in the ranks of college rodeo, the team of Chance Kiehne and Michael Trujillo who attend Eastern New Mexico University (ENMU)in Portales, NM claimed the top spot. Although not the fastest run in the final round, their 5.8 second run kept them in the lead where they won the national championship by more than 2 seconds on four head. Also giving the state a nig win in the team roping was the team of Johnny Salvo and Rodee Walraven who attend New Mexico State University (NMSU). They finished third. One final National Champion may not attend a New Mexico college, but is a Land of Enchantment grown cowgirl. Jordan Muncy-Taton (PANHDL) won the breakaway roping national championship with a wickedly fast four head total of 11.8 seconds. Muncy-Taton also claimed fifth in the Barrel Racing competition and won the Women’s All-Around title. In the men’s, All-Around race, Johnny Salvo struck a top spot.

Finishing ahead of him in the tie-down roping was Bo Simpson winning ninth and JoDan Mirabal who won eleventh, both of whom attend NMSU. In the steer wrestling event, Cody Lanier, another Mesalands student earned tenth. Finally, New Mexico earned one final award that is the root to one why New Mexico continues to offer up great rodeo talent. CJ Aragon head coach of Mesaland Community College earned the Coach of the Year for the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association (NIRA). Aragon, who is also the faculty director and three-time coach of the year for the Grand Canyon region, said that receiving this award has been “pretty humbling,” according to NIRA. “I’ve got a pretty unique group of kids,” Aragon said to the NIRA. And about his future plans he added, “Keep going, keep trying to get better, [and] keep trying to graduate all our kids.” Congratulations to all of New Mexico’s top Intercollegiate champions and athletes who continue to put the Land of Enchantment in the National rodeo spotlight.

ow – what a month it has been. July is always a great time of year and, like always, it flys by. Here we are in August and staring down the last half of the year. Where in the heck do the days go? As I sit here hammering out this month’s column, I have a knot in my stomach. It has been less than a week from a tragic event that took the life of one of rodeo’s good guys. Kenny McOsker died in a bareback riding accident at a rodeo in the middle of July. I have known Kenny for a long time, but admit we were not close friends. I met him at a rodeo long ago about the time I was giving up on riding bucking horses and he was just starting out. I have typed his name hundreds of times in this publication over the years and we had run across each other a few times throughout that time, always taking time to exchange hello’s. I probably saw him more the past year or so at a local Jr. rodeo where our kids competed than I have over the 10 years prior. Like always, his attitude and simple smile as we chatted offered up the good-guy attitude. My wife and I, like many in the state,

were hit hard by his passing. We can see the hardship his wife and family have in front of them and like many, have bowed our heads and said a simple prayer for them. From personal experience, I know nothing anyone can say or do can make the pain stop, and only time will bring peace. I also know that the only comfort we can offer is support. Allowing the family to know that people are there for them at any time can bring some immediate comfort. I wish I could do more to help. I ask those who are close to the McOsker family, please know that as your life continues to move on, theirs have halted and your presence, love and prayers are things that will continue to give them support while time slips in and helps ease the pain. I know there are many who are doing simple things to help and I applaud them. Benefit events are being hosted and I hope you have a chance to attend one of these events. Finally, I hope we all take a minute to give our thoughts and prayers to the McOsker family in this time of need. Until next time Dirt - Keep it under you feet. — Ryan Davis

DirecTV No Longer Carrying In Country TV’s Rodeo Coverage In Country Television has notified the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association that it has been unable to reach a fair and reasonable agreement with DirecTV for continued airing of their ProRodeo coverage. Officials at In Country remain optimistic that they will find a suitable resolution for both parties, but until that time, the Wrangler Million Dollar Gold Tour and the All American ProRodeo Finals will be seen exclusively on Dish Network. The PRCA continues to work with In Country regarding potential solutions for expanding coverage. Dish has a special phone line to assist PRCA fans who would like to convert to their service at 888.216.9987.

Special Recognition The World’s Oldest Rodeo in Prescott, Arizona, and the Tucson Rodeo Parade were the only two events in the state to receive special recognition awards from Arizona Governor Jan Brewer on July 13 during the 30th annual Governor’s Conference on Tourism in Tucson, Arizona. The Tucson Rodeo Committee has elected Bill Schurg chairman of its board of directors. Schurg, a professor and equine specialist at the University of Arizona, has been a volunteer board member on the Committee since 2003. He will serve a three-year term as chairman.

Team To Watch

In the Spotlight

The new pairing of JoJo LeMond and Cory Petska seems to be working out just fine. They won $11,883 over Cowboy Christmas and came back the following week to win the Jubilee Days Rodeo in Laramie, Wyoming, and tie for the win at the Dinosaur Roundup Rodeo in Vernal, Utah, for another $5,413. That parlay allowed Petska to increase his lead in the team roping heeling standings to $28,123 over second-place Jake Corkill and moved LeMond up from 24th to 10th in the last two weeks in the heading standings.

PRCA team roper Derrick Begay is featured in the photo anthology One Nation, One Year (LPD Press, $24.99). It is the product of photographer Don James’ yearlong journey into the 27,000-square mile Navajo Reservation, a space occupying parts of New Mexico, Arizona and Utah, to provide “an actual up-to-date portrait of who Navajos really are” and the broad spectrum of their culture.

Broken Records Ryan Jarrett Breaks Arena Record with 6.3-Second Run at Calgary (Alberta) Stampede Georgia PRCA cowboy, Ryan Jarrett may have just put together the best three days of tie-down roping in the history of the sport. Jarrett broke the Calgary (Alberta) Stampede record for tie-down roping with a time of 6.3 seconds on July 10 in between runs of 6.6 and 6.9 – an incredible 19.8 seconds on three head. The 6.3-second run is equal to the PRCA world record set by Ricky Canton in Strathmore, Alberta, in 2005. Jarrett, the 2005 world champion allaround cowboy, earned $15,500 in Pool A competition to easily qualify for Showdown Sunday on July 18. Jarrett started getting congratulatory text messages shortly after the record run from friends back in the United States. “They were watching on their computers,” he said.

Other Rodeo Headlines From The Week Of Cowboy Christmas The Home of Champions rodeo in Red Lodge, Mont., had never had a 90-point ride in any roughstock event in the first 80 years of its existence. The July 2-4 rodeo had two. Saddle bronc rider Shaun Stroh broke the arena record with a 91-point ride on Brookman Rodeo Company’s No. D24, and then bull rider D.J.

Domangue posted a 91-pointer on Brookman’s Pocket Aces. The tie-down roping Cooper brothers won the Cowboy Christmas edition of Family Feud, out-earning the team roping Tryans and the saddle bronc riding Wrights. Tuf, Clif and Clint Cooper combined for $43,918, with all three sons of ProRodeo Hall of Fame roper Roy Cooper banking more than $12,000. Brady, Clay and Travis Tryan earned $21,056, while Alex, Cody, Jake, Jesse and Spencer Wright totaled $15,209. Joseph Parsons became the third member of his family to win the all-around title at the World’s Oldest Rodeo June 29-July 4 in Prescott, Ariz., joining his father Joe and his uncle, Cutter. Parsons earned $2,988 in the tie-down roping and the team roping, paired with his dad. Joe Parsons won the all-around there in 1986, 1988 and 1992, while Cutter Parsons won his title in 2007. This time, the bragging rights belonged to the wives: Hollie Etbauer, wife of five-time World Champion Saddle Bronc Rider Billy Etbauer, won the barrel racing title at the June 30-July 3 Rodeo of the Ozarks to earn $3,696, while Billy failed to place at the Springdale, Ark., rodeo. Third place in the barrel racing went to Kirby Harter, wife of saddle bronc rider Bradley Harter, who finished tied for sixth at Springvale, giving her a $2,402-$616 earnings edge for the week. In theback-and-forth battle for the lead in the steer roping world standings, reigning World Champion Rocky Patterson re-took the lead from Bryce Davis by finishing third in both the Black Hills Roundup in Belle Fourche, S.D., and the Capitol Legends PRCA Rodeo in Fort Pierre, S.D. Patterson has $27,092 to lead Vin Fisher Jr. by $1,577. Davis slipped to third.

Upcoming Rodeos Cash Only in 2010! (Money orders and Cashier Checks accepted) Entries in our rodeos are taken seriously. Call the Turnout number (505-864-9426) if you must turnout of a rodeo for any reason including medical, emergency or vet release. You may not compete for 10 days if you vet or medical out and a release is due in the office within 7 days or entry fee and fine will be assessed. All Non-Members must enter with credit card when calling in entries. No exceptions! Contestants may draw out up to the closing of entries – After entries close you will be turning out and expected to pay fees. Rodeos having first sanction with New Mexico will have a $13 CES/Finals Fund deducted from advertised fees and have a $20 Stock Charge also deducted from fees. Bull riders have $10 day money added to fees as well! All non-members entering NMRA rodeos must enter with a credit card. The credit card WILL be run upon entering. If you belong to an association that DOES NOT guarantee your fees you must also enter with a credit card. This is due to the excessive non-member turn outs at NMRA rodeos. Incentive team ropers must show current 2010 USTRC cards, or receipt that card was purchased, when paying fees or you will rope as an open team. There is no longer a number to call the USTRC to confirm numbers, therefore proof must be supplied when paying fees. No exceptions!

NMRA cards can be purchased on site at NMRA rodeos. Cards must be purchased before competing in order for money won to count for year end points.

he All Around Champion Dennison Boone received cash and prizes worth over $25,000. Boone, the son of Dennis and Jean Boone is 24 years old and hails from Page, AZ. He works construction jobs in the Flagstaff, AZ area. He says, “I have not entered very many rodeos but I always try to get in on the big rodeos. My main event is tie down roping but I can also do team roping. My philosophy that I like to share with the young people is, stay in school so you can be successful, don’t use drugs and don’t use alcohol. You can be anything positive that you want to be if you would just stick with it.” For more information, visit www.aircarodeo.com All Around Champion 3-Horse Slant Trailer Dennison Boone, Page, AZ 1st Tie Down Roping Long Go 3rd Tie Down Roping Short Go 1st Tie Down Roping Average 2nd Team Roping Short Go 5th Team Roping Average Tie Down Roping Long Go 1.

2010 New Mexico NBHA State Finals This year’s State Finals was a huge success, due largely in part to the participation of members from across the state that attended. We had over 400 entries during the 3 day event, with a payout of over $23,000 in cash and over $10,000 in prizes. Many thanks goes out to our sponsors, Rockin’ Horse Ranch, and New Mexico Rodeo Council for their support. Our Friday open race started out with a fast time of 14.295 as Rebecca Hughes on her good mare, Miss Wranglin’ Witch, set the bar for the weekend. Saturday’s race was won by Sabrina Ketchum on Uno with a time of 14.314, and on Sunday, an arena record was set as Tori Wimberly and Doctor Rarebar ran a blazing 14.175! The average winners were awarded custom trophy saddles from Corriente Saddle Company. A big thank you to Mr. Wayne Baize who donated a handmade saddle that was raffled off; Norene Canada was the lucky ticket holder and she was very excited to take her pink seat barrel saddle home with her. Saddles were awarded to the winners in all divisions in the Open, Youth & Senior classes. Custom buckles were given to second place, with horse blankets, tack and equipment prizes to 5th place. Average winners include Tori Wimberly of Moriarty, 1D Open, John Garcia of Springer, 2D Open, Rick Martin of Albuquerque 3D Open, and Madeline Dunnihoo of El Paso, TX, 4D Open. In the Youth, Leia Pluemer of Bosque Farms took the 1D, Dakota Gray from Carlsbad won the 2D & the 3D on two horses, and Andrew Teague from Edgewood was awarded the 4D saddle. In the Senior class, Marie Autrey of Mountainair won the 1D, Rick Martin from Albuquerque won another saddle in the 2D, Norene Canada of Grants won the 3D, and Marilynn Morris from Edgewood won the 4D. All of the divisional winners worked hard for their titles; our hats are off to all the winners!

NBHA NM1 Summer time fun! NM 1 members have been busy running barrels. The Karen Brown Brown Memorial was a lot of fun followed by the largest race yet in Grants series. But the big one at Grants is yet to come. With saddles and belts and all kinds of prizes it will be guaranteed to be a wonderful place to run on July 3. Congratualtions to Haley Wolfe for brining home a 2D saddle from Las Vegas and we know our high school and junior high members will be tough competition at their respective finals. We wish Taryn Rottman a speedy recovery from her knee surgery and wish everyone the best of luck as they travel this summer. Stay safe, run fast and remember NM 1 races are the place to be!

Speechless

have always been fascinated by the possibility of talking to animals. Like most ranchers, sheepherders and pig persons, I feel I have this special ability to know what animals are thinking and often I seem to communicate better with cattle and sheep than I do my wife. Don’t lock me in the looney bin, but I feel strongly that animals speak to us. Oh, they may not use the proper syntax and pronunciation but when they say arf arf, meow, moo or baa, I feel they are trying to tell us something. About the only reason I’d like to live another 100 years is because I bet that in that time frame, using computers, translators and decoder rings, we’ll be able to ask animals questions and get back answers. But I won’t be around, so please ask these questions for me. I’d like to ask a donkey if he’s offended when we call a politician by his family name? I want to know what breed of dogs MONTH that sheep hate theMAR most10and I’d like toBUILT BY know chicken’s innermost thoughts, if they

seems like it?” I hate to pry but I’d love to ask dogs when they are watching television if they have a favorite show and if they don’t think Dancing With The Stars is really lame? Whenever I see an urban dweller pick up dog poop and place it in a plastic bag I’d love to ask the dog if he or she wasn’t laughing his or her socks off. And did they do it more often just to watch? Whenever I see a poodle with one of those spiffy hairdos I’d love to ask if they didn’t feel stupid, or, if other dogs made fun of them? When I see dogs dressed in clothes I’d love to ask if they have a favorite designer? “Just between you and me,” I’d ask, “don’t cats really get on your nerves?” I know that dogs really are man’s best friend but I’d love to ask a Border Collie, “Am I really the best you can do for a friend?” If given the choice between interrogating a horse or Hitler I’d pick the equine every time. The first question I’d ask a horse is if, when they see an obese person coming at them with a bridle in their hand, don’t they get the sudden urge to run like the wind?

have any. I’d ask pigs if they believe in God and, if so, what religion are they? Also, to what political party would most hogs belong if they could join? (Although sometimes I think they already have.) I’d like to ask a sow nursing 12 babies if, given the opportunity, she didn’t ever want to just sneak away in the dark of night? I’d also like to know how they feel about their heart valves being used to save people they didn’t even know, or were related to, and if they’d voluntarily fill out an organ donor card if they could? I have a ton of questions I’d like to ask dairy cattle. Such as... Do you consider milking machines foreplay and do they turn you on? When a milker strips your teats do you feel violated? How do you feel about artificial insemination and would you outlaw it if you could? Do you understand Spanish or English better? I’d like to ask a Mad Cow if she really does VSA HOUSE up PROOF feel crazy and I’dINfollow with, “Are youCRX’D the brains behind PETA because It sure

I’ve always been curious if horses prefer women to men because it sure seems that way. I’d ask trail driving horses if they like cowboy poetry, I’d poll Quarter Horses to determine if they prefer heading or heeling, and I’d ask a herd of wild mustangs if they didn’t think thoroughbreds were snooty and overbearing? I’d query beef cows in a pasture if they ever had their eye on a certain bull and if another bull made love to them were they disappointed they’d have to wait until next year? I’d ask bulls if they have a favorite auctioneer, if cows know it’s Christmas, and how do they feel about Al Gore and meatless Mondays? I’d ask what they think of livestock shows, if they preferred FFA or 4H owners, and do they know what’s coming at the end of their lives? The one question I’d love to ask all meat animals is, “Would you have rather lived to become someone’s supper, or to never have lived at all?” I think I already know the answer to that one. www.LeePittsbooks.com

Dear Philip During a team roping run, the heeler caught both feet of the steer. However, the horse stepped into the loop as the steer was stretched. The heeler dallied and the horse remained calm (with both front feet still in the loop). Should this team be granted a time, with the loop around the steer’s legs and the horse two front feet? Thank you for your time and all that you do for the sport of team roping.

Located in one of the most secluded and lush areas in Tucson, this ranch estate has been in the same family for more than 30 years and has just now become available. Professionally landscaped grounds surround the home with mature trees, rose gardens, extensive lighting, automatic irrigation and fruit orchards. Proximity to shopping conveniences but extreme seclusion makes this home a unique opportunity. There are endless horse trails to be explored but one doesn’t have to leave the house to watch the deer, javelina, hawks, owls, quail, fox and bobcats as this ranch provides water and refuge for these and many other native animals.

Judy from Texas Thank-you for your question. From what you are telling me, this is not a qualified run and they should not have received a time. The reason this is not a qualified run is the rope must be secure, (tight around the steer’s leg or legs or steer’s belly). Since the header faced and both ropes were tight and the team was asking for a flag, the flagger had to drop the flag. The heeler should have tried to get his horse’s feet out of the loop. Then, if the horse legs stayed in the loop (or just one of the legs stayed in), this would have been a “no-time.” However, if the horse’s feet came out of the loop, with ropes being tight, both horses had all four feet on the ground and both ropers had their dallies, then it would have been a qualified run.

Fear Leads to Loss of Freedom

hen a cowboy gets the worst of a horseback wreck he straightens his hat, dusts off his britches and gets back on the horse. When someone asks, “Are you hurt?” he laughs, points to his body part that hit the ground first – usually his rear end – and says, “Nah…landed on my brains.” My dad told about asking the boss on a big outfit for a job during a rainstorm. The boss said, “We’ll catch you a horse so you can show us your style.” Dad said, “Lead out your worst one (that’s what they were going to do, anyway.)” He was a super bronc rider, but not that time. “I flew straight up in the air so hard and fast it stripped all the rainwater out of my bridle reins,” he remembered. Evidently, he’d stayed on longer than anybody else so he got the job. The first time I climbed on an unbroken 3-year-old sorrel gelding called Sleepless my husband asked, “Are you scared?” “Course not,” I lied. That horse threw me away like I was a rag doll, then bucked five minutes with the empty saddle and got really good at bucking. When I started to get back on, my husband noticed I was coughing up blood. “If you get back on that horse he’ll kill you,” he said. We went to the hospital, and I still hate that I didn’t get back on that horse right then. These stories show what happens when people refuse to allow fear to rule their behavior even if they know they’re headed for a wreck. A scared person would have

insisted the horse be put in a padded pen with all kinds of “safety” equipment. Both horse and rider would have been safe – in the pen — but they couldn’t be turned out in the pasture – too risky. So what would be the point? As our society has become more affluent and safer and life expectancy has steadily increased, we would assume citizens would feel more relaxed and secure. Michael Crichton, in his novel, “State of Fear” said that hasn’t happened. “Western societies have become panic-stricken and hysterically risk averse,” he wrote. British sociologist Frank Furedi wrote a book (2002), “Culture of Fear: Risk-Taking and the Morality of Low Expectations.” He believes the “rituals” of risk management supplant actually taking real-world, effective action. The BP oil spill is a case in point. A recent German-made movie, “The White Ribbon” won a Golden Globe award and a top award at Cannes last year. Some thought it was about the rise of fascism, but film critic Roger Ebert gave it four stars and wrote, “It’s about how the rise of fear leads to the loss of freedom.” Our own government has become expert at the “fear” game, knowing when people are afraid they are easier to “manage.” I vote for everyone to pursue the cowboy way. Even if you’re scared spitless, don’t let it show. Animals (and people) can smell fear. From now on I plan to be totally fearless – around horses, other people, even the food I purchase.
