OCTOBER 2013

THE

Competitorial Winter is coming…

After what I think everyone will agree has been the best season in more than a half-dozen years, it’s coming to an end, and most likely before the next issue hits your mailbox, many will have seen some morning frost if not a few flakes of snow… ugh! Though I like the seasonal change and the fall provides about 60 days of the best weather of the year, I’m not a particularly big fan of the cold…. less and less as time goes by.

Things are winding up fast in the sport. The PRCA Turquoise Circuit Finals will be held in Las Cruces, NM in a couple of weeks, and I’m glad to hear that the event will continue to be held there for the next few years. The NMRA Finals are just around the corner as well and of course the event that affects more competitors than any other… the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping… closes entries in just another week or so.

Though it’s after the conclusion of the season’s biggest events that any kind of factual assessment of the year can be made, I think at the very least, an overall sketch assessment of how the season has gone can be reasonably worked out.

With most everyone having adjusted to

Ad/Text deadline for the November issue of The All-Around is October 9, 2013.

$4/gallon fuel, the “shock and awe” at the pump didn’t seem to have as much of a negative impact… at least psychologically… as it has in the past. And, the fact that we got through an entire season without some kind of animal health scare that cripples the industry was a welcome change. I don’t think that simple fact can be overstated. The entire cowboy sport genre needed a full, unencumbered, season to be able to determine its overall health and to be able to make some kind of judgment regarding its forward growth… or recession.

Of course, any time it rains in the desert, it seems to put those of us who live here in a better mood. The fact that we finally had a summer that, in most places, got some decent rain made things “feel” like there was some life.

Overall, I think it’s pretty easy to see that this was the best year for events of all kinds in well over a half-dozen years. Has it recovered?

Not by any stretch. There is no question that the presence of rodeo, team roping, and barrel racing alike has shrunken significantly and recovering to where it was just a few years ago is going to take some time. I think the real question is, will it ever recover to that point? continued on page 52

Group, Inc. “In my opinion, this has a chance to change the landscape of rodeo forever and is way overdue. On March 2, we’ll see history made when RFD-TV’s THE AMERICAN will showcase the best of the best.”

THE AMERICAN will be the largest and richest one-day rodeo in the history of the sport. Each one of these worldclass athletes will compete for their share of the $2,000,000.

The event is going to showcase the top 10 contestants in the world after the PBR World Finals and WNFR. In addition, any other athlete who wishes to compete against the world’s best will be eligible for part of the $2,000,000 payout. There will be five qualifying events for each rodeo event, culminating with the semi-finals in Mesquite, Texas on February 21-23. The top qualifiers will then move on to compete against the top 10 in the World at THE AMERICAN on March 2.

In addition to the United States Team Roping Championships, THE AMERICAN will have events sanctioned by the PBR, Pro Roughstock Series, Better Barrel Racers and the Ultimate Calf Roping Series.

Great Cause, Great Organization and Great Event!

W

hen it comes to people and organizations that are out there helping to do what they can in the ongoing struggle to cure cancer, there are many, but there is one in the Southwest that stands out and if you are a Cowboy or Cowgirl you need to know about this group. The organization Cowboys for Cancer Research (C4DR) over the years has helped to provide many resources in the fight against cancer. Their signature event has been their Annual Team Roping, but they have over the years added to that venue with a Golf Tournament and Dinner. It is now one of the largest events of its kind and it is interesting how it all got started and how it is helping Cancer Research today.

In 1982, in Las Cruces, New Mexico, Rawley Jackson, employee of the U.S. West Telephone company, along with other telephone employees and friends, all volunteers, organized a benefit team roping and barbeque, to honor the memory of their friend, Alma Cohorn, who died of breast cancer. Alma was the wife of local businessman and calf roper Kenneth Cohorn, and mother of PRCA calf roper and team roper Larry Cohorn. Both of who were long time members of the USTRC. As there aren’t any records from the very first roping, held at the Strauss Arena in Las Cruces, it is believed that approximately $700-$1000 was raised and sent to the UNM Cancer Center. This money was placed in the UNMCC general

fund “to be used where most needed”.

After continuing success in the following years, a decision was made by C4CR & UNMCC to establish an endowment. In 1999 the endowment was established at the UNM Cancer Center, and is known as the Alma Cohorn Memorial Cowboys for Cancer Research Endowment.

In the Spring of 20ll, the Cowboys for Cancer Research Endowed Fund was established at New Mexico State University, with a pledge of $1,500,000 over the next 7 years. This endowment stands at $990,000 as of June 2013.

C4CR & NMSU Aggies are Tough Enough To Wear Pick (TETWP) are proud to support this new endowment, while continuing the 30 year support of the Alma Cohorn Memorial Cowboys for Cancer Research Endowment.

The Cowboys for Cancer Research committee is comprised of thirteen volunteers and two co-executive directors, Denny Calhoun and Geraldine Calhoun.

The group includes several cancer survivors, and represents a diverse cross section of the community. C4CR members can be recognized throughout community, surrounding areas and while traveling across the United States by their distinctive Cowboys for Cancer Research shirts, which promote C4CR and have the statement “You can help! Ask me how!” on the back. C4CR’s mission statement has been to raise money for cancer research, create an awareness of the disease, and produce a quality team roping in a wholesome family atmosphere.

Throughout the past 30 years, the team roping has grown in both popularity and size, and has become the largest event of

its kind in the Southwest. The roping has been held at various venues throughout the area including the Strauss Arena, Jimmy Harris Arena, Richard Martinez Arena, Southern New Mexico State Fair Grounds Arena, Calhoun Arena, and Sproul Arena.

At the 2012 event, 1065 teams were entered. Each year, in addition to trophy saddles & buckles for the individual roping winners, a 3 horse slant gooseneck trailer is given to the high point roper of the weekend. Names of donors of $1000 or higher are displayed on this trailer as well as names from the current year’s “In Honor Of ” and ”Memorial” list. In addition to the team roping, a kids dummy roping is held, with buckles given to the three age division winners, and an arena egg toss with winner buckles, is held for anyone who wants to enter. These new events are a huge, fun addition to the weekend. This C4CR weekend is full of fun and fellowship among friends and family while supporting a great cause.

C4CR has experienced phenomenal growth over the past 30 years. In 2004, C4CR held the first “Cowboy Party” which included a dinner, dance and silent auction at the New Mexico Farm & Ranch Heritage Museum, in addition to the two day team roping. This first dinner dance was so successful, it immediately outgrew the Farm & Ranch Museum, and the next year moved to the Dickerson’s Event Center, where it was held until 2011. In 2011, the dinner, dance and silent auction moved to the new Las Cruces Convention Center, where it experienced a “sell out” crowd of over 700! Each year the dinner dance includes a huge silent auction.

In 2007, the “NMSU Aggies Are Tough Enough To Wear Pink”, was organized by a group of local volunteers, and is co-chaired by four well known ladies in the Las

Cruces community, all four being breast cancer survivors. The six year success of this outstanding group of volunteers has created an atmosphere of “Total Pink” and promotes breast cancer awareness throughout the Las Cruces community and surrounding areas.

In early 2012 a goal of $1,000,000 was set. Goals had never been set before. Being the 30th anniversary celebration, it was a huge challenge. As of March 1, 2013, the total funds raised in the 2012 fund raising campaign by Cowboys for Cancer Research and NMSU Aggies Tough Enough To Wear Pink in their joint efforts, including cash and inkind goods and services totaled $1,075,000. This is a record amount!

It takes many people and lots of hard work to make Cowboys for Cancer Research a success in our endeavor to raise money for cancer research. C4CR is humbly grateful for the continuing support of its donors during the past 30 years.

Contributions come from throughout the United States, Canada, Saudi Arabia, and Afghanistan!

Cancer is a terrible disease. It touches so many lives, regardless of race, national origin, one’s position in life, or the state of the economy. Those who suffer are counting on all of us to be true to the cause. C4CR is always willing to meet with and speak to any group, at any place,

at any time to spread the word about the work of Cowboys for Cancer Research.

Cowboys for Cancer Research is looking forward to October 1113, 2013 and their 31st year of

raising funds for cancer research. C4CR invites you to join their team!

Eye’s On The Prize!

S

even-time World Champion Team Roper Clay O’Brien Cooper and horse LB took a fall on the slick grass at the Pendleton (Ore.) Round-Up Sept. 12, and while both horse and rider walked away without injury, the mishap may have dealt a staggering blow to Cooper’s Wrangler National Finals Rodeo aspirations.

Fifteenth among team roping heelers at the start of the week, Cooper and partner Aaron Tsinigine finished second in the first round in Pendleton to move Cooper inside the top 15. The fall took Cooper and Tsinigine out of contention for the average title and may serve to keep Cooper from being one of the top 12 heelers accepted into the rich Justin Boots Championships in Omaha Sept. 26-28. There can be no doubting how focused Cooper was on the task at hand. Notice how his loop remains at the ready and his eyes are always on the steer’s heels as he’s going down and even when he is on the ground, braced on his left elbow.

T

he Roping Company once again put on a great event at the Linden Valley Arena in Show Low, Arizona, August 31 – September 2. The clouds were close but for three days managed to just stay away long enough for some great roping.

The Labor Day weekend brought ropers up to the White Mountains for a chance to win part of the awesome prizes and great payouts. This event is one of the few that does a nice job of giving some of the lower numbered ropers an opportunity to make a trip to the pay window.

The weekend kicked off Saturday with a #6, #7, #8 saddle roping and a #9 40 and over. Sunday took on a little bit of a “Techie” kind of feel as ropers competed in a #8, #10 and a #12 for Apple IPads to the winners. Also on Sunday was the #9 Bones roping.

Monday was about the trailer, as ropers started out the day with a #11 warm-up roping and finished with the

ITRA Hosts World Series Qualifier in Andrews, Texas

fter the long holiday weekend ropers made their way to Andrews, Texas on September 7th and 8th for the Invitational Team Ropers Association’s WSTR Qualifier.

What a great place to rope and a nice pen of cattle. Ropers came from all parts of West Texas and Eastern New Mexico to attend this roping. Thanks to Gerry Tully and company for a wonderful production and good luck to those teams that now will be making their way to Las Vegas!

Benefit Roping Brings Community Together

O

n August 31, 2013 the roping and barrel racing community once again showed how it comes together to help support people and families.

A benefit roping was organized by Chasidy Chiantaretto and Kelli Taylor in Bagdad, AZ to help raise money to donate to the Families of the 19 Granite Mountain Hotshots that were killed in the line of duty in the Yarnell Hill Fire June 30, 2013 and also to help the people who lost their homes in Yarnell, AZ during that fire.

The event took place at the Bagdad Arena in Bagdad, Arizona, and people showed up from all over the area. The day included Team Roping, Barrel Racing and a number of raffles to help raise as much money as possible for the families.

“When we started to plan this event, we never thought that it would be this big.” Says Chasidy Chiantaretto, one of the two event organizers, “We could not have do it without the help of so many people volunteering.”

The majority of Cattle were donated

by Jim and Cecillia Fancher of Fancher Cattle Company but others also brought cattle, Donnie & Kelli Taylor, David Blackmore, Tom Bill Johnson, Owen McCrae, Larry & Holly Woods and Jimmy Clark. With everyone’s contribution, there was plenty of stock to help keep the roping run smooth.

“I would like to thank Donnie Taylor, Todd and Julie Chiantaretto, Wilbur and Christy Garcia, Danielle Murphey, Julie Anthes, Larry and Holly Woods and Sam Albright for all the help they were to Kelli and me.” Says Chasidy. “It was also amazing everything that the Bagdad Fire Department did. They not only worked the concession stand but they bought all the food and supplies, and donated 100% of the proceeds.”

At the end of the day the event totaled $25,625 from the different benefits, roping, barrel race, ground events, snack bar, raffles, silent auctions and donations. $21,515 will go directly to Granite Mountain hotshot families. Nineteen cashier checks for the amount of

$1,132.36 each will be delivered in sealed envelopes to the Fire Station on Iron Springs Rd. in Prescott, AZ. $4,110 will go to the people of Yarnell who lost their homes. This money will be donated to the Yarnell Disaster Relief Fund through AZ Community Foundation.

Payout in Roping was $10,175. 1st and 2nd won Hotshot memorial saddles, 3rd through 6th place won buckles, 7th through 11th won breast collars, headstalls, bronc halters and buckets full of stuff. “We roped from about 7:30 p.m.

Saturdy until 6:00 a.m. Sunday morning!

A big thanks to everyone that came and supported our benefit,” said Chasidy, “and a special thank you to everyone for sponsoring the saddles and buckles.”

The saddle and buckle sponsors were: Bagdad Corral Club LLC. Sponsored 2 saddles and 2 barrel racing buckles and additional prizes; Mike Freeland sponsored a saddle; Roy Hendrick sponsored a saddle; Laron sponsored 4 Roping Buckles; Tim and Janie Howe sponsored 2 Roping Buckles; Motion Industries sponsored 2 Roping Buckles; Lisa Murphy Circle Bar Steakhouse sponsored a Barrel Buckle and Chuck Foley CF Contracting sponsored a Barrel Buckle Pay out in 4D Barrel Race was $2,450. Buckles were given to the 1st place winners in each division, headstalls went to 2nd and assorted hay, tool and accessory bags were awarded to 3rd through 5th.

Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

Lee Robinson A Saddle Made Him Famous

L

ee Robinson was born April 10, 1891 in Haskell County, Texas. His parents were ranchers and he went to school at a little place called Quitaque in West Texas. At the age of fourteen however, he hopped in a covered wagon that came by his folks place, leaving home to work as a cowboy on ranches all over west Texas—including the famous JA ranch. He also spent time in Arizona working on ranches. Lee was a born an adventurous cowboy.

Very athletic, and handy with a rope, he learned early he could rope and tie calves about as fast as anybody.

Bulldogging and bronc riding were also rodeo events Lee tried. There is even a story of Robinson trying to ride a buffalo on a bet. He rode the beast, but had to be pulled from the arena, bleeding from his nose and ears, only to be taken to a doctor who told him he had internal injuries and should never ride rough stock again.

Lee won many shows around the

Southwest in the calf roping and bulldogging events, so in 1921, friends convinced him he should go back east and try his luck at Madison Square Garden, where Tex Austin held the World Championship Rodeo. Lee shattered Clay McGonagill’s record in the calf roping there, won the average, and became known as the fastest calf roper of the day. From then on, Lee Robinson was a rodeo man.

Some of his other wins include: 1921 calf roping champion Prescott, AZ; 1922 all around and bull dogging champion, Prescott, AZ; 1924 bulldogging champion Dewey, Oklahoma; 1925 1927 calf roping champion, Elks Rodeo, Rochelle, Illinois; calf roping champion Tampa, Florida and Tucson, AZ and numerous others throughout the 1920s.

Along the way, he married Ora Lee Johnson, daughter of the famous rodeo contractor, Colonel William T. Johnson (producer of the Boston Garden show where cowboys went on strike in 1936) in

a controversial marriage.

According to Mary Lou LeCompete, in her book, Cowgirls of the Rodeo, “...Col. Johnson had no rodeo hands in his family, and apparently did not want any. When in the mid-twenties his beloved daughter Ora Lee fell in love with Lee Robinson, then one of rodeo’s premier calf ropers, Col. Johnson was violently opposed. He felt that she was too young to marry. He was also convinced that being a rodeo cowboy, Robinson would never amount to much, and was unworthy of his daughter.

Johnson sent Ora Lee from boarding school to boarding school, with Robinson in pursuit, and was prepared to send her to Europe under the watchful eye of her maiden aunt Ora when the couple eloped.

Johnson was furious, and the family was not reconciled until three years later when his two-year-old granddaughter Mary won the Colonel’s heart.”

Besides being probably the fastest and best-known calf roper of the 1920s,

THE

Robinson even took part in the making of a Hoot Gibson movie at the Houston Rodeo in 1923. But if you are thinking that you have heard of Lee Robinson somewhere before—it was probably because of a saddle.

In the 1890s, Newton Porter moved to Phoenix, AZ where he established the N. Porter Saddle & Harness Company, which became one of the best known saddle companies ever. After Porter died in the early 1900s, his sons took over.

They continued to run the business for many years afterwards. In the late 1920s, the business was expanded to include a shop in Tucson.

In the mid-twenties, calf roper Lee Robinson was looking for a way to better his times in the event and contacted Porter Saddlery about designing him a saddle with a low cantle and swells. The theory was—this should allow a faster dismount than the conventional high-back, high swell saddles, made for bucking horses from that era allowed. At the 1927 Tucson

Rodeo, the Porter Saddlery presented him with the official “Lee Robinson Light Weight Saddle.” It was the first of its kind (however, Lee had ridden a prototype prior to that). The saddle became very popular and was “the introduction of the modern day roping saddle.”

The N. Porter Saddle & Harness Company, in their 1929-1930 Catalog No. 17 describe the saddle: “The Lee Robinson Light Weight: Weight — Only 30 pounds, complete with latigoes, cinchas and stirrups — but strong enough for all-around use. Since its first showing, this number has lead all other saddles in sales. There must be a reason—this one exemplifies our slogan, ‘Quality, without penalty of high cost.’

Like all of our saddles, this one is made of the best oak-tanned leather and on the highest grade tree obtainable.”

The last thing Lee told Porter Saddlery was, “This is the best saddle that I have ever owned.”

Unfortunately, On February 25, 1927,

33

after winning the calf roping at Tucson and being presented with the first signature saddle, Lee, Ora Lee and daughter Mary Robinson died in a terrible car accident near Tornillo, Texas while driving to Fort Worth en-route to the rodeo there. The only survivor was Lee’s traveling partner, Louis Jones.

The family was buried in Denton, Texas, where Ora Lee was born and they were living at the time. As a eulogy and tribute to one of the greatest calf ropers of the era, rodeo personality, Fox Hastings, led Robinson’s saddled horse in the grand entry at the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo that year.

Lee Robinson was inducted into the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum’s Rodeo Hall of Fame in 1967 and the Lee Robinson Saddle, made by the N. Porter Saddle & Harness Company for many years, is a highly sought-after cowboy collectible to this day.

98th Sonoita Labor Day Rodeo ‘couldn’t have gotten any better’

K

ristin Tomlinson and Gwen Jordan, co-chairs of this year’s 98th annual Sonoita Labor Day Rodeo, held last weekend at the fairgrounds in Sonoita, were both pleased and exhausted by Monday evening. “The Saturday and Sunday crowds were record breaking,” Tomlinson said. “We couldn’t have been happier with the outcome. It couldn’t have gotten any better.” Tomlinson, Jordan and rodeo committee members Kyle Etchart and Manuel Murrietta put together an event that included one threeday pro rodeo, three one-day junior rodeos, more than 520 entries and several thousand spectators.

There were more than 400 entries in the pro rodeo, which was part of the Grand Canyon Professional Rodeo Circuit. They competed for three days for the high point awards in barrel racing, breakaway roping, tie-down roping, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc, bareback riding and bull riding events. There were almost 90 entries in the bull riding event this year, causing the bull riding to continue into the evening on all three days. Of these, there was only one successful ride, as only one rider managed to stay on the bull’s back for the required eight seconds.

The All-Around winner at this year’s rodeo was Bill Snure, who won a new saddle donated by the National Bank of Arizona. Damien Padilla of Rio Rico finished in second place in the All-Around competition. Padilla competed in team roping and steer wrestling.

On Sunday, the rodeo held the first annual Gene Forest Memorial Roping, to honor a saddle bronc rider killed in a car accident earlier this year. Nineteen bronc riders entered this event, which was won by Dawson Bourne from Wickenburg, Ariz. The rodeo donated

ALL-AROUND

There were three separate junior rodeos, as well, with a total of 120 entries. Each day, riders ages 5-14 competed in mutton busting, or sheep riding, calf riding, roping and barrel racing to win buckles and prizes. Several local young riders collected awards this year. At Friday’s junior rodeo, Sophia Jordan of Elgin won the junior barrel racing buckle. On Sunday, Levi Padilla of Rio Rico won the team roping, and Ellianna Jordan of Elgin finished second. Ellianna Jordan also came in second in the junior barrel race.

In the senior division of barrel racing, Clarissa Etchart of Elgin finished in third place. On Monday, Brody Boisver of Elgin finished in second place in the team roping. Brent Anderson won the wild ass race on Monday, having finished second in Sunday’s race. Diego Artigas of Sonoita finished Monday’s race in second place and Ruby Kay of Sonoita finished third, the only girl to enter the race.

Many Thanks Tomlinson thanked Tom and Donnell Boisvert for their hard work. “Their help was invaluable with the junior rodeo. Their PHOTO COURTESY OF GT PHOTOGRAPHY

dedication to the rodeo is really awesome,” she said. Both Jordan and Tomlinson also thanked Ashley Randolph and Alyssa Dryer, the Sonoita rodeo queen and princess, for all their help throughout both the pro and junior rodeos. “They really went the extra mile for us,” Jordan said.

The co-chairs also praised Kyle O’Hair, whose job as the bullfighter was to protect the cowboys after they come off the bucking bulls. He stayed on to work in the arena for all three days even after breaking his leg on Saturday.

Tomlinson also credited the stock contractors, Manuel Murrietta and Cody Resor, with the success of the rodeo.

“They went above and beyond anything we could have expected. They have amazing stock. A lot of their stock has gone to the National Finals Rodeo,” she said.

Special Events In addition to all the rodeo action, spectators also got to watch trick riding and roping performed by the Riata Ranch Cowboy Girls, a troupe that has performed in 17 countries on four continents.

On Monday, Military Appreciation Day, the honor guard from Davis Monthan Air Base presented the colors during the opening ceremonies.

On Monday evening, after the fairgrounds had quieted down and the last of the trailers had pulled out, Gwen Jordan reflected on the success of the 98th Sonoita Labor Day Rodeo. “This year we had more entries, more spectators, and tons of compliments,” she said. “And it’s all thanks to our hard working committee and wonderful volunteers.”

t wasn’t just cotton candy and corndogs at the Socorro County Fair and Rodeo in Socorro, New Mexico this year. It was “Rodeo Time”, from stick horse races, calf scramble and mini bucking bulls to some great rodeo action.

August 30 and 31, 2013 supplied plenty of rodeo action for the whole family. The NMRA sanctioned with WPRA and PAFRA co-sanctioned rodeo showcased the top contestants from around the southwest. The rodeo contestants left no spectator disappointed after watching the two rodeo performances. One of the highlights each evening was Travis Sullivan’s Mini Bucking Bulls contest.

Both Friday and Saturday evening starting at 7:00 p.m. the crowd had a chance to see some of the young superstars show their stuff. It was another great year for the Socorro County Fair and Rodeo!

n 1984, Nash Jaramillo established the First Impression Rodeo Club, at that time in was mostly family and a few other riders that enjoyed getting together and riding horses and also participating in parades throughout the state. “I was one of the original riders when Nash put the group together.” say Sam Flores, current President of the First Impressions Rodeo Club Inc. “We would get together every chance we could to ride in parades and even had a float that we pulled in the parades for all the family members and kids that didn’t ride.”

Now after 29 years the First Impression Rodeo Club Inc. is still going strong and participates in parades every chance they can, but they also over the years have included the Junior Rodeo Series as part of their annual plan. “The officers and club members work real hard at providing an opportunity for youth to compete in the gymkhana events.” Says Flores. “We try to make this a family oriented club and provide an environment that promotes the Western lifestyle.”

This year the First Impression Rodeo Club will start their Junior Rodeo series

on October 12 and 13, 2013. The events will take place at Dennison Park in SW Albuquerque. The age groups will

Corey Maier Wins Don Johnson Ram CBR Bulls on the Border Bull Bash

T

he Championship Bull Rider’s Bash on the Border, September 14, in Los Fresnos, Texas, was like a day at the nearby beach for the top two cowboys, Corey Maier of Timber Lake, South Dakota and Corey Bailey of Paris, Tennessee. The two Coreys took the top spots in both the opening round and the championship “Shoot Out” round, with Maier the ultimate champion. He was presented a check for $15,000, by Tuff Hedeman, four-time World Champion Bull Rider.

Thanks to a break in the extended drought in the Rio Grande Valley, the outdoor arena was a bit like the beach, too — a lot of sand covered by a lot of water. It made for surprisingly good footing for the bulls. Twelve different bull “franchise” owners provided three bulls each to comprise the 36 bulls needed for the opening round and semifinals. A special award, worth $25,000, went to the franchise with the best combined score. The bulls — Hoky Poky, Speck and Rainbow — were owned by the trio of Winston Loe of Minden, Louisiana, Circle T Ranch of Keatchie, La., and Cory Melton of Tolar, Texas.

Don Johnson Ram of Brownsville was the title sponsor, one of many in the community who welcomed the CBR for their first event at the southern-most tip of Texas. Fifty-eight youth representing the the Los Fresnos Falcons National Junior R.O.T.C. were part of the volunteer staff, as well as members of the Los Fresnos PRCA Rodeo Committee and local Fire Department and EMTs. Corey Bailey won the opening round with an 89.5 score on Ragin JT, owned

by Exclusive Genetics and Team Whisnant. Maier marked 88 points on Speck, owned by Loe/Circle T/Melton.

Tate Harris of Palestine, Texas, was third, and fourth place was divided four ways, between Texans Colby Jones of Dayton, Michael Earl of Pflugerville, Jared Long of Ramona, Oklahoma and Jeremy Hanson of Towner, Colorado.

Ten cowboys in the field of 24 made

full eight-second, qualified rides in the opening round. To complete the 12 spots in the semi-finals, two contestants who had stayed on the longest without making the whistle also advanced. One of them, Tate Smith of Litchville, North Dakota, made the only qualified ride, earning 83 points on Barbwire, owned by Cody Melton accepts special award worth $25,000 for the franchise with the best combined score.

The next stop on the CBR tour is the Scottsdale Showdown Chevy Silverado Chute Out in Scottsdale, Arizona on October 19. The tour culminates at the Cheyenne Frontier Days in July 2014, with a World Finals and $100,000 bonus to the tour champion.

Brazile caps family affair with tie-down win It was a family affair for the Braziles in Puyallup, and the patriarch of the family left town a very happy man.

Trevor Brazile won the tie-down roping finals at the Justin Boots Playoffs September 8 with a 7.9-second run, but he wasn’t the only Brazile competing at the rodeo.

“This event is a lot of fun for my family; my wife (Shada) was here barrel racing, my son (Treston) was mutton bustin’ and I was team roping and tiedown roping,” said the 17-time world champion. “It was a great time for the family and we know where every single vendor is on the way back to the trailer.”

Brazile placed third in the semifinal round on Sept. 8 to advance to the final round as one of the top four tie-down ropers. He was up against veterans Cody Ohl, Timber Moore and Clif Cooper in the final round. The win earned him $7,369, along with the $1,957 he made in the semifinals.

“Winning here is always big,” said Brazile, who moved from seventh to fourth in the world standings as he chases his fourth tie-down roping gold buckle. “Everybody wants to make it to the (Wrangler) NFR, but once you’re there you want to have a chance to win it. It adds a lot more drama, fun and excitement when you have a good chance to win the whole thing.”

sport would need a confidence boost, but Brazile says a large haul and movement up the standings was just what he needed in the tie-down roping.

After finishing 23rd in the event last year, he was determined to improve in 2013. “It doesn’t matter who you are, confidence is always important,” Brazile said. “After the kind of year I had in the tie-down roping last year – it was the worst year I’ve had since I started – it was really nice to get back to doing decent this year.”

Brazile was more than decent on Sunday, and he hopes to keep that momentum going through the last few weeks of the regular season and into the September 26-28 Justin Boots Championships in Omaha, Nebraska.

a spot in the Finals before this weekend, it’s great to have a chance to move up in the standings,” he said.

Total earnings of $16,221 also made Brazile the all-around champion in Puyallup. With additional checks in Lewiston, Idaho, and Fort Madison, Iowa, he had total earnings for the week of $19,352. Brazile leads the all-around world standings by $76,616 over Tuf Cooper, is second in the steer roping, fourth in tie-down roping and 14th among team roping headers.

won $6,934. He was 15th in the world standings as recently as Aug. 19. “My experience should help me,” Sumpter said. “I know what I need to do to qualify for the NFR. The biggest deal for me is to realize that if things aren’t going good for me, it isn’t the end of the world. Things come and go and I just need to stay sharp.”

Sumpter will be competing in the Pendleton (Ore.) Roundup this week and then on to rodeos in Albuquerque, N.M., and Amarillo, Texas, next week.

“I feel good about how I’m doing

right now, and I just need to keep it going,” Sumpter said.

If Sumpter stays in the top 12, he will earn a spot in the lucrative Justin Boots Championships Sept. 26-28 in Omaha, Neb. “If I can qualify for Omaha and win some money there, that would be a big boost for my confidence,” said Sumpter, who finished a career best fourth in the steer wrestling standings a year ago.

“Anytime you can win some bonus money it makes you feel good about what you are doing.”

Lewiston title keeps Sumpter on track for NFR Veteran steer wrestler Wade Sumpter knows what it takes to qualify for the Wrangler Nationals Finals Rodeo and a strong push this past week has him in position to make a sixth December trip to Las Vegas.

Sumpter, 32, pocketed $6,974 thanks to winning the Lewiston (Idaho) Round-Up and finishing first in the second round and fifth in the average at the Justin Boots Playoffs in Puyallup, Wash. “This was a good week for me,” the 6-foot-1, 230-pound Sumpter said.

“I just tried to stay calm and stay focused, and things worked out for me.”

More importantly for Sumpter, his efforts at Lewiston and Puyallup left him 10th in the world standings at $56,598.

In a single week, Sumpter more than doubled the margin he held over the steer wrestler in 16th place, going from $5,783 a week ago to $11,591 with three weeks remaining in the regular season.

“You can’t worry about what everybody else is winning, you just have to make sure you are winning something,” said Sumpter, a native of Fowler, Colo. “If you do that, then everything else will take care of itself.”

Unlike some of his fellow competitors, Sumpter has seen both sides of trying to earn a Wrangler NFR bid. Back in 2008, Sumpter entered the WNFR as the No. 1 steer wrestler with a regular-season record $133,685 in winnings. Conversely, in 2011, he finished 17th in the standings, $2,727 out of 15th place.

This season from June 24-August 11, Sumpter had a rough stretch as he only

Competitorial I’m not sure. I know that there are both some encouraging signs, and also some things that make me less than bullish about the future of the sports.

Both have to do with what’s happening at the grassroots level.

I am encouraged that despite all that the sport of rodeo has suffered, youth rodeo seems to be making a small comeback. Yes, I know , some of you are saying, “It’s just youth rodeo.”

But that’s where it all begins. It’s one of the reasons this publication devotes so much effort in that area. The entire sport of rodeo hinges on the continuation of youth rodeo. No youth rodeo… no Jr. rodeo… no high school rodeo… …the end of rodeo.

If you don’t think this is true, you should hear some of the back room conversations within the PRCA. They have realized the potential of this scenario, and though they have yet to figure out what to do about it…they’re scared.

With regards to team roping, thanks to the USTRC, which has always been extremely dedicated to the future of the sport by developing and promoting youth ropers, that part of the equation looks good. The plague that haunts, and will continue to haunt the sport, is soaring production costs. The effect of this, as I see it, is the steady evaporation of

continued from page 4

the small-scale, local events. It’s at these events that people who are interested in team roping become team ropers.

As can be seen by the rodeo model, if the sport is depending on “breeding” its way into continuum, i.e. its future being almost exclusively tied to the offspring of those already in the sport, well… that’s a pretty small pool to be drinking from. It hasn’t worked out too well for rodeo.

It’s a disturbing problem for the sport of team roping, one that should not be ignored, and one for which I don’t see a simple solution. Roping steers are NOT going to be getting cheaper to buy or feed or haul any time in the future… in this universe or any parallel to it. And unless producers find a way to keep production costs down and are able to provide low entry fee type events, potential team ropers are going to be ex-potential team ropers.

Oddly, a lot of team ropers began as goat ropers… chasing a tethered goat around for hours on end, drinking beer and hanging out with their buddies. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that recently “Goat Ropings” have been on a steep increase after more than a decade non-existence.

Hmmmm…

Our summer buckle series ended with lots of fun as Falena Dale (iD), Victoria Torrez (2D), Jenny Meisner (3D) and Cheyene Poyer (4D) topped the field with the most money won in their respective divisions. A big thanks goes to Baird Cattle Company and the Turner family for donating two of the buckles. We had a great weekend despite having to cancel (for the first time in 18 years!) our Sunday race due to muddy conditions, but hooray for any rain we can get!

October will be a huge month for us.

Christine Lewis and Molly Cheese are teaming up to organize our 3rd Annual “Race for Life” Cancer fundraising weekend. There will be a target saddle given away, buckles, prizes, silent auction, and all sorts of fun events on October 19th and 20th. Proceeds this year will benefit the Cathy Lincoln Memorial Fund and the American Cancer Society. We encourage everyone to wear pink and join us in helping support the cause of fighting cancer and supporting families.

Our Roan plus Fields fundraising campaign for getting even more added money to our district finals has gotten off to a wonderful start and this will continue throughout the fall. Explore the following website and remember any purchases not only benefit you but also NBHA NM 1. http://iellc.myrandf.com.

Ties That Bind

I

f you glance through old-time rodeo photos you will see many of the great rodeo cowboys wearing neckties while they competed. Would someone please tell me why a bull rider or bronc peeler would be wearing a choke strap around his neck? Isn’t he already taking enough risk without the likelihood of hanging himself? And what about the very real possibility of a team roper getting his necktie caught in his dally?

I am baffled why anyone would wear a necktie in the first place but I’ve often seen old photographs at brandings and roundups with cowboys wearing neckties while working, which is the epitome of being overdressed. Heck, Charley Russell himself often painted while wearing a necktie, I suppose so he could clean his brushes on his tie. In my opinion neckties and cowboys are one of the worst combinations ever, even worse than chocolate and dill pickles, drinking and driving, sheep and coyotes, guns and teenagers, cattle feeders and bankers, and bureaucrats and your tax dollars.

I’ve been having a lot of eye trouble lately but my wife read a newspaper story to me that said researchers have now concluded that a necktie that is on too tight can cause glaucoma in men. I now attribute my eye problems to the last time I wore a necktie, which I think was back in 1997. I’m pretty sure it is also a scientific fact that neckties cut off circulation to the brain and if you don’t believe me, when’s the last time you saw a Congressman without his necktie on?

Rich guys who collect ties are called grabatologists and some have entire closets for their ties. Not me, I own three neckties, two of which are clipons and the other is a real one that was left behind by a house guest. The latter

is easily the most valuable tie in my collection as it is made from something called silk, whereas my other two are petroleum distillates. One of my ties is narrow with red polka dots, one has cows on it, and the third one is wide with stripes, so I figure the odds are I’d be in fashion at least 33% of the time. If I ever wore a tie, that is.

I know this is hard to believe for folks who’ve seen my sartorial elegance on display but I NEVER go clothes shopping, however, I’m told that some of the fancier ties can cost as much as fifteen bucks! And then you have to match it with whatever you’re wearing.

Personally, I’ve never liked the necktie and tee shirt look, or a tie with coveralls. Besides, I can tie a Bowline knot but not a Windsor and I have no idea what kind of ties are in fashion currently. Did you know that in England the stripes on a man’s tie go from top left to bottom right, while a Yank’s

necktie go from top right to bottom left? Which may explain why when I look in a mirror wearing my striped tie I have a craving for crumpets, speak with a snobbish accent and crave tasteless food.

I am known far and wide in the auction business for not wearing a necktie when some highfalutin folks think the occasion calls for one. My mom always preached to me that I should wear a necktie on all important occasions but I rebelled. She would have killed me for not even wearing one to her funeral, but she wasn’t in any position to berate me. Some uppity sale managers think ties should be worn at special events like horse sales, a cattle auction in a hotel ballroom or a sale high on the hill in Denver but I respond, “Listen, if I didn’t wear a necktie to my own mother’s funeral I sure as heck aren’t going to wear one to sell your inbred miniature horses!”

My high school ag shop teacher told us to never wear loose fitting clothing in the work place and ties definitely fit that category. So I always use that as an excuse why I’m tieless. Once when I showed up at an auction market without a tie to work a cow sale. The sale manager said, “You are a writer, what’s the worst than can happen, that you get your necktie stuck in your printer and Hewlett Packard chokes you to death?”

Hey, it could happen. wwwLeePittsbooks.com
