2011 CINCH USTRC National Finals of Team Roping T

he United States Team Roping Championships (USTRC) wrapped up the Cinch USTRC National Finals of Team Roping on October 30, 2011 at the State Fair Arena in Oklahoma City. The nine-day event always stands as the pinnacle of team roping and this year’s event held true with more than $4 million in cash and prizes awarded. The championship event awarded a total of nine National Finals titles and ten United States Championship titles which not only came with the cash prize, but custom Martin Trophy championship saddles, Gist Silversmiths gold buckles, full-quill ostrich Tony Lama boots and Western Horseman commemorative belt buckles. In addition,

USTRC Gold Plus members have a chance to win two Dodge RAM Cummins Diesel 4 X 4 trucks, along with two Case IH tractors. Hosting more than 7,000 teams, the event provided team roping enthusiasts with one of the best team roping events in history. Ropers from all over the United States and abroad attended the event and it was a hit. For those who live and rope in the Southwest, you will have a chance to rub elbows with some of this year’s big Cinch NFTR winners in the coming months. Several ropers won National Championships, several more placed well in the Shoot-Out divisions at the NFTR and many others placed throughout the week, bringing lots of money back to the Southwest. The week started off well for two ropers from New Mexico. Katey Anthony from Jal and Seth Hall of Fair Acres took home the #13 Shoot-Out Championship. They roped five head in 37.95 seconds to claim their fame. They collected $78,700 in cash, as well as a whole load of prizes for the championship. The big win also pushed Katey to the lead of the Cruel Girl Championship where she stayed. She collected a beautiful black Martin Championship Custom Cruel Girl saddle as well as more for the win. Before Katey and Seth won their share of the NFTR, Open roper Brandon Gonzales from Seyboyeta, New Mexico teamed up with Josh Morris of Lazbuddie, Texas to place well in the US Open Championship. One of the biggest and best Open events in the country, the duo won fourth in the Average after roping six head in 43.05 seconds. They shared a payout of $22,300 in cash. Another big win for New Mexico came from the #12 Gold Plus Shoot-Out. Heeler Ferlin Charley from Albuquerque teamed up with one of the best female ropers in the

business, Beverly Robbins from Muscle Shoals, Alabama to claim the championship. The duo roped four head in a smooth 30.46 seconds to win $50,400 in cash and a load of prizes. In addition, they earned the chance to win the Ram truck that went home with the high money winners and the Case Tractor that went to the reserve high money winner. The team had to rope off for the truck and after an exciting eight runs from the teams, Robbins drove home the truck and Charley was awarded the new Case tractor. The #12 Gold Plus it seemed was the place to be for New Mexico ropers. Rick Jump of Belen, and Randy Sanchez of Jarales claimed second place in the Average after roping four head in 31.72 seconds. They shared $31,500 and a pile of prizes for the win. New Mexico struck again in the third-place department. Heeler Cody Wilson of Capitan teamed up with Texan Joe Sears to win the third place Average check worth $25,100. They did it with a four-head total of 31.89 seconds. The #10 Gold Plus Shoot-Out held out room for an Arizona team to make a little money. The team of Janet Mickelson of Flagstaff and Jim Williams of Kingman took home the fourth-place championship after roping four head in 39.19 seconds. They collected prizes, as well as $17,700 in cash. The final day of action at the Cinch NFTR was the last holdout for the big winning of the 2011 season. In the #8 Shoot-Out, Miles and Alonzo Begay of Indian Wells, Arizona teamed up to claim second place. They roped four head in 45.09 seconds and pocketed a slew of prizes, as well as $22,600 in cash. All in all, ropers from the Southwest once again made their mark on the continued on page 2

Competitorial O

k, so it’s been about three weeks since the conclusion of the USTRC’s National Finals of Team Roping. No doubt you’ve already heard it was another blowout success. I have to admit, there was not much to find fault with. It’s really mind-boggling to see the ease with which the event has been produced in recent years, and make no mistake, the venue improvements that have occurred over the past few years ….well …they’re just ridiculous! Simply put, the event has no equals in the sport, and If you have not been in a few years, you need to get next year’s calendar out and start making a plan to go. Admittedly, I have to say recent NFTR’s have been a disappointment from an editorial perspective…at least in the way of providing some nice fodder for discussion in the aftermath. Oh how I long for the days of ropers being red-faced, pissed-off about anything and everything…and who could blame them? Lines of ropers, stretching endlessly into the early morning darkness, having traveled hundreds of miles to find their stall reservations were

Cinch USTRC NFTR biggest team roping event in the country. Many others placed well in the Preliminary, Shoot-Out and specialty ropings throughout the week and all of them earned their share of the multi-million dollar payout of the 2011 Cinch National Finals of Team Roping. If you missed the event this year, you won’t want to miss out on it next year. The 2012 Cinch National Finals of Team Roping will be held October 20-28, 2012 at the State Fair Arena in Oklahoma City and the big news coming out of the USTRC with a guaranteed $1-million dollar added to the event is making ropers come out of the woodwork to earn a chance to be there next

no reservations at all. Or those seemingly annual classification debacles that regularly approached “fistfight- in-the-middle-of-thearena” status….what good times those were! And who doesn’t long for the days where literally mountains of horse crap and bedding trash filled the stall area to the point that your eyes burned from all the ammonia from the horse urine….yeah… those were the days. Of course production issues always provided some nice, post NFTR, editorial material as well. Anyone remember the “law suit years”? Those years where in the days and weeks following the NFTR ropers actually filed, or threatened to file, lawsuits against the USTRC for a number of reasons, not the least of what was termed “Payout Indiscretions’” And what about the logistical debacles that saw ropers racing back from the prelims at the Lazy E Arena in Gurthrie, to avoid being turned out in a Shoot-Out, at the venue on the OKC fairgrounds….what a nightmare! Of course there were never-ending cattle/barrier disgruntlements (I don’t think that’s a real word, but my spell check

continued year. So grab your rope, head to one of the more than 85 USTRC sanctioned events around the country, as well as its seven Regional Finals events and the hundreds of USTRC Affiliate events to give yourself a chance to be one of next year’s big NFTR winners.

didn’t freak out so it stays). Cattle too slow, barrier to long, cattle to fast, and on, and on, and on….it never ended. Yes, things have come a long way from where they were to where they are. But that’s not to say there were not a few complaints being voiced at this year’s event. Ok, so maybe it’s not quite on the same level, as those of the past, but they were legitimate in their own right. The number one complaint I heard this year was the cost of beer! Really? Now either the USTRC has gotten really good at producing this event, or the new breed of team ropers are of a softer and fuzzier variety of which I am not familiar. Okay, so I’ll confess to having myself been trapped up in the hospitality area, and so experiencing it firsthand, I will acknowledge that, what will surely be known in the years to come, as the great “Beer Pricing Shakedown of 2011” bears legitimacy. But Really…that’s it? So what do I do with that? Somehow I’m suppose to….through the words in this column….proclaim some sort of injustice that has been done to ropers across the land

at the 2011 NFTR on the basis of what Budweiser or the beer vendors at the OKC fairgrounds charged for beer? Well, thanks for the vote of confidence, but I have to tell you…and this may come as a surprise…but I don’t garner that kind of clout. Thinking about this more, I think I might have stumbled onto a deeper conspiracy being perpetrated by those deviants at the USTRC. Higher beer prices = less beer purchased = less volatile ropers = a more pleasant overall experience. What a bunch of knuckleheads! Doesn’t the USTRC know that after the first group of ropers spread the word about the cost of beer, they’ll all run down to Wal-Mart and spend $50 on a new cooler and ice to save a fraction of that in beer purchases…..Silly USTRC, you should know by now, you can’t outthink a thinkin’ roper.

Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping Brazile Nearly Goes Wire to Wire for 15th Title

PHOTOS BY JAMES PHIFER/RODEOBUM.COM

revor Brazile’s final run at the Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping wasn’t his fastest of the two-day, 10-round championship on November 11-12 at the Lazy E Arena. It wasn’t the prettiest, either. But that 13.7-second sprint to the finish was efficient and accomplished a major goal for Brazile’s 2011 campaign, his third Steer Roping World Championship and the 15th Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association World Title in his stellar career. “I owe a lot of that success to San Antone,” Brazile said of the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, which initiated steer roping into its competition this season and provided one of the biggest purses of the season; Brazile won $24,060 there. “That was a huge win for me. I knew it going in. I prepared for that like I would a National Finals.” In fact, it was 25 percent of Brazile’s earnings this season, but it wasn’t the only win. He also earned Steer Roping titles at All-American ProRodeo Finals (Waco, Texas), Lea County Fair & PRCA Rodeo (Lovington, N.M.), Beef Empire Days PRCA Rodeo (Garden City, Kan.), Will Rogers Stampede (Claremore, Okla.), San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo, SandHills Stock Show & Rodeo (Odessa, Texas), Guymon (Okla.) Pioneer Days Rodeo and the Butterfield Stage Days (Bridgeport, Texas). “I like to win every time I get a chance, therefore I don’t leave everything on one run,” said Brazile, 35, of Decatur, Texas. “I like to get my job done ahead of schedule. “Steer roping’s taught me to win money when you can, because there are more variables in this event than anything.” One of the variables was Two-Time Reigning World Champion Rocky Patterson of Pratt, Kan., who inched his way into the World Standings lead by winning the ninth go-round on Saturday night. After struggling to just two qualified runs during the first five rounds on Friday night, Patterson placed in four of five rounds Saturday, including the ninth-round victory. That pushed him ahead of Brazile by $173 heading into the final run of the 2011 season. Patterson was not in the average race – he finished ninth in the average with a cumulative total of 87.3 seconds on seven qualified times – so in order to claim his third straight Montana Silversmiths gold buckle, the Kansan had to win the go-round and watch Brazile fall to fifth in the aggregate race. Brazile was the second-tolast cowboy to go, just ahead of Patterson. When he raised his hands in the air and called for time, the World Championship was Brazile’s. “It just made it that much sweeter,” said Brazile, of Decatur, Texas. “There are things you remember, and I’ll remember that run because of that race, whereas you don’t remember it when it doesn’t come

and I rushed the trip. That was my fault.” In a rare moment of success on Friday, Patterson won the second go-round with a 10.4-second run. That $5,077 check came in handy at the end, where Patterson finished second in the world standings with $87,642. Where others faltered, first-timer Kim Ziegelgruber of nearby Edmond, Okla., succeeded. He won the fifth round and placed five others. He finished fourth in the average race and earned $19,192 through the weekend. “I drew just right for that last steer,” Ziegelgruber told Marvin Olberding of ProRodeo Sports News. “I had the opportunity to free this horse up, and that was perfect for that last one. That steer kind

of sat up when I roped him. I was nervous, because I put a wrap and a half on him.” Chet Herren of Pawhuska, Okla., came out on Saturday night with a vengeance, trying to make up for a rough opening night, where he had qualified times on just two runs and failed. He won the sixth goround in 10.3 seconds, and then earned another Montana Silversmiths Go-Round Buckle in the seventh when he bested his traveling partners, Patterson and Cody Scheck, in the fastest of the competition. Patterson had set the standard early with a 10.8, but Scheck went seven players later and scored a 9.6-second run. Herren, the next cowboy on the list, bettered that mark but one tenth of a second to take the round

down to (that). “When your heart’s not that heavy on your last one, it doesn’t stick with you as long.” Most of the two-day championship didn’t sit pretty for Two-Time World Champion Scott Snedecor, but he got the job done the hard way. Snedecor, of Fredericksburg, Texas, was the only cowboy in the 15-man field to rope and tie down all 10 steers, claiming the aggregate title. It’s the second such award Snedecor has earned in his career. “Out of the 10 steers, I probably had seven of them that kicked me or 2011 PRCA Steer Roping champion, Trevor Brazile in action at the 2011 National Finals of Steer Roping at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma tried to get up,” he said. “These steers were really good two weeks ago. I was on the wrong end of them.” Still, there is a nice new piece of hardware hanging from his belt. “A (NFSR) average title is the second best thing a guy can get in his career,” Snedecor said. “Other than a gold buckle, that’s the next step down. I’m fortunate enough to have two gold buckles and two average buckles.” In addition, Montana Silversmiths also created Go-Round Buckles for cowboys who excelled throughout the weekend. Snedecor failed to place in any round and his $15,231 was nice. But it was far from the biggest. In fact, six cowboys earned more money Pratt, Kansas roper, Rocky Patterson made up a lot of ground at the 2011 NFSR to finish second for the season. in Guthrie that weekend, led by Chance Kelton of Mayer, Ariz., who pocketed $28,615. Kelton placed in five go-rounds, including the win in the third, and finished second in the average race to Snedecor. Early on in the championship, it looked as though J.P. Wickett of Sallisaw, Okla., had a bulls-eye painted on the Average Title. Wickett won the first round with a 10.5second run, and then finished second in the second (11.0) and third in the third (12.0). Then in a tough pen, he slugged through a 13.2-second run to win the fourth round. In all, he won $17,308 on opening night. All was great until that fifth go-round, when the steer got up after the trip. “That ticks me off,” Wickett said. “I really wanted to rope all five head Scott Snedecor of Fredericksburg, Texas, roped and tied all ten head in 172.8 seconds at the 2011 NFSR, on his way to win the Average. tonight. I got in a little bit of a hurry,

victory. Herren placed in five rounds and won $20,385. Scheck, though, finished strong. He scored just one qualified time on opening night, but he made up for it on Saturday, placing in three rounds and winning the other two – well, he split the eighth-round victory with Vin Fisher Jr. (10.0) and won the 10th round in 10.4. Fisher, who entered the Clem McSpadden as a contender for the world title, placed in just three go rounds. Those are the breaks at championship events. “A little bit too conservative, but in the end, it’s all about the ‘W,’” said Brazile, who has won four Montana Silversmiths Gold Buckles in less than a year – he won the Triple Crown in December 2010 with the All-Around, Tie-Down Roping and Team Roping-Heading Championships, then added the Steer Roping Title this November. “You’ve got to do what you’ve got to do (to win). There are times of year when it pays to be reckless, and this was not one of those times. “It’s hard knowing that you’re losing ground. It’s hard not to listen to that, but you can’t get caught up in that. You go to battle in the go-rounds with guys that aren’t in the average.” As in years past and just like the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, the event will consisted of 10 go-rounds to determine the PRCA World Champion and the final 2011 PRCA Steer Roping World Standings. The Lazy E Arena was built to host the NFSR in 1984 by E.K. Gaylord II. The Lazy E hosted this world championship event from 1984 until 2000. After eight years, first in Amarillo followed by Hobbs, the event moved back “home” to the Lazy E. In 2009, the Oklahoma state Legislature unanimously passed a resolution to change the name of the event to honor the late Clem McSpadden, who served for many years in the Oklahoma Legislature and the U.S. House of Representatives while also building a reputation as one of the best announcers in rodeo history. He worked the steer roping finals a record 27 times. McSpadden was also known as the “Voice of the Lazy E”. A portion of the proceeds from the 2011 Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping were donated to the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum in Oklahoma City and the Clem McSpadden Endowed Chair at Oklahoma State University. The Lazy E is proud to support these institutions for Western preservation. The 2011 Clem McSpadden National Finals Steer Roping was presented by National Saddlery, with support from Wrangler, American Farmers & Ranchers Insurance, Boyd Gaming, Montana

Silversmiths, the American Quarter Horse Association, Justin Boots, Priefert Ranch & Rodeo Equipment, Ram Rodeo, John Vance Auto Group, Pendleton Whisky, Purina Mills, Cinderella Horses, the San Antonio Stock Show & Rodeo, Kyler Cattle Company, the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum, The Oklahoman, One Stop Copy Shop, the Fairfield Inn & Suites – Edmond, Best Western – Edmond, and the Comfort Suites – Edmond.

World Series of Team Roping Record Breaker

t’s now officially the biggest team roping event of 2011 at $4.4 Million. Really, no other event is even close. On an individual basis all four of the divisions are at the top of the national heap with the exception of the NFR, which benefits by roughly 4 or 5 million in added money from Las Vegas Events. Without an added money plan, we have moved within 1.5 Million of the total NFR. Here is the payoff for each division in the Grand Finale as of October 19, 2011. This could change slightly for several reasons, but still be fairly close. WSTR #13 Finale - $1,032,000 WSTR #12 Finale - $1,159,200 WSTR #11 Finale - $1,129,000 WSTR #10 Finale - $1,086,000 Here are the Top Ten Divisions for 2011 1. PRCA Team Roping - $1.5 Million 2. WSTR #12 Finale - $1.159 Million 3. WSTR #11 Finale - $1.129 Million 4. WSTR #13 Finale - $1.086 Million 5. WSTR #10 Finale - $1.032 Million 6. Reno Invitational - $854,000 7. Bob Feist Invitational - $478,000 8. George Strait Classic - $473,000 9. USTRC #9 Shoot-Out - $405,000 10. USTRC #10 Shoot-Out - $400,000

Classifications For 2012 Season Letter From Denny Hello Team Ropers, This morning September 30th, we are announcing that WSTR will be using TRIAD classifications in 2012, just as we did from 2006 to 2009. It was a mutual decision that will be described in detail below, but as part of the deal we continue to

offer WSTR memberships but will also accept current USTRC memberships cards to collect winnings at our ropings. The roping advertisements will read as follows, WSTR Membership or USTRC memberships required: You may purchase your 2012 WSTR card for $60 onsite, online, or by calling 505-898-1755. WSTR Memberships are free to ropers 70 and older. This announcement in every ad will have no impact on ropers who dont play the USTRC game. The remainder will still need a WSTR membership to collect winnings. However because we are accepting TRIAD classifications, if you are already a 2012 USTRC member, you will not be required to purchase a WSTR membership to attend WSTR qualifiers. We will continue to offer the benefits of a WSTR membership and you may want to join both, but we are providing this as a money saving service to you. This arrangement will begin at the New Year ropings. If you show up to any WSTR qualifier without a membership to either organization, you will be required to purchase a WSTR membership before you can rope. We are scrambling to match the USTRC membership year by offering 2012 World Series memberships from this point forward. We weren’t prepared to start renewal this early and it is causing a few complications, and we ask your patience while we get all the procedures worked out! It was no surprise that the WSTR business model we started with in 2006 did not involve an association membership and especially not classifications! Most of you are familiar that my exhaustion over the problems with classifications was the primary reason we sold USTRC. The WSTR

business goal we started with (06 thru 09) worked well in the first four years of operation, however, by the end of 2009 we had ropers refusing to rope with WSTR because we were requiring USTRC membership. Forget all the other minor issues and problems between the two groups, the big problem for us was the exclusive USTRC membership requirement. We just couldnt live with it. The dilemma we faced at that point.. should we do the one thing in this business we dislike the most (classifications), or.should we try to live without a significant percentage (40%)of our customers. So in 2009 we went to USTRC and tried to work out a possible solution to our dilemma. Their business policy of 20 years was still working and they did not want to abandon it just for us. We had no choice but to create a membership organization with classifications as we never even considered trying to operate without 40% of you. We gritted our teeth, developed an IT department, event software, set up a classification office, found a communication tool (Spin To Win), and despite our personal dislike about getting back in the association/classification business, here we are today. We were unsuccessful again in 2010 in reaching a compromise with USTRC. However, this summer USTRC and WSTR were able to compromise on all the major impediments to operating under one handicap system. For you folks who really get into the rumor stuff and general BS, dont get carried away with this announcement. This is simply about classifications and the two organizations havent jumped into any partnership deals. If

National All Amateurs Team Roping Tour We’re Still Roping at Dunn’s The rumor mill regarding Yost events at Dunn’s Arena in Litchfield Park has been spinning off the hook! I’ve heard that I’m not producing ropings any more; that Dunn’s Arena is closed; and that I’m not going to have ropings at Dunn’s at all. False, False, and False. Here’s the deal – Dunn’s Arena and I have agreed that they will produce the Senior Thursday ropings throughout the winter, along with producing a couple of monthly ropings. I will continue to produce all the events that I usually produce at Dunn’s, including the Arizona Bowl, the Roping Fiesta, The No Wolves Allowed events, the El Presidente and the National All Amateurs Sun Country Finals.

We Are on Facebook AS if you didn’t know already! We had a great response for our new facebook page! Congratulations to Donna Shedeed for winning our “Facebook 500” Drawing, winning $500 in free entries into any of the National All Amateurs ropings. With so many people responding, we decided to add a couple of more names to the winners; congratulations to Andrew

Hickey and Jamie Sylling for both winning $150 in free entries. Thanks everyone and hope to see you all soon.

Kipp Wins Trailer! What a beautiful day it turned out to be in Casa Grande during the annual Louie and the Duke Classic! About 500 teams came to play in the #9 and #10 on Saturday for that CM three-horse bumper-pull trailer. It came down to a rope-off between a couple of heelers – Montana’s Walt Vermedahl and New Mexico’s Justin Kipp. Kipp came out on top, going back to Lordsburg, New Mexico, with the trailer and more than $1,800 cash after winning the #10 with Clarence Lehi. Kipp, whose family has ranched near Lordsburg since 1882, has three sons who rope, as well. “I always win when my wife, Amie, is with me,” he said. “I might give the trailer to my son Brock, who missed a truck at a Yost Events roping last year by two-tenths of a second.”

Thoughts from Ty Louie and the Duke! This roping does two things. First, it benefits a great cause — the fight against

cancer. And second, it kicks off the National All Amateurs’ Sun Country season. This event was started by friends and family of Louis Johnson and John Wayne, who were best friends and business partners on cattle and land across Arizona. Tragically, both men succumbed to cancer. The Louie & Duke Classic helps to fight this terrible disease. Along with the roping, there is also a golf tournament on Friday and a dinner and auction on Saturday night. Visit www.louieduke.com for complete information. The Louie and Duke Classic #10 Roping Round 1 1. Danny Valenzuela / Austin Crabtree, 6.59, $580; 2. Cole Robinson / Tanner Fuchs, 7.07, $360; 3.

there are things that can be mutually beneficial to both groups and the roping customers, then obviously they will happen. As an example, your winnings at WSTR qualifiers will get you to the big show in Vegas and will also count toward the USTRC program. We have no opposition to this at all, as it benefits a significant portion of our ropers and solidifies roper data for classifications. The WSTR memberships will be powered by TRIAD. Arkie Kiehne will still be involved with classifications, but his role will change. He will have no role in USTRC handicaps but will act as a liaison between WSTR and USTRC in double-checking classifications and appeals for those ropers who have a WSTR membership only. Every effort will be made to make sure that the two organizations agree and have codified classifications. Classifications between the two organizations started to drift apart in 2010 and it wasnt a good situation for the roping industry. In rare instances where USTRC and WSTR absolutely cannot agree on a classification, an official EXCEPTIONS list will be posted online at WSTRoping.com and with every qualification secretary. This year World Series of Team Roping had over 11,000 ropers participate in our qualifiers. This agreement is a big deal for the 6,000 ropers who participate in both associations. It will simplify the process for those ropers. Considering these tough economic times, it makes no sense for the two largest associations in the industry to duplicate the same services when the outcome of classifications is the same in 90% of the cases. This lets us get back to focusing our attention on producing the best paying, richest and most elite ropings in World! Thanks for roping with us. Sincerely, Denny Gentry World Series of Team Roping

The tide turned for the horse industry when Congress received a report from their research office that looked into the effect of the closure of the U.S. horse processing facilities. That Government Accountability Office (GAO) report, HORSE WELFARE: Action Needed to Address Unintended

appropriate use of horses that will be welcomed by a worldwide and domestic market, create jobs, and preserve our beloved horseback American culture for our children and grandchildren. The now devastated horse industry looks forward to the day when we can once again contribute more than $1.9 Billion dollars in tax revenue nationwide from an industry that prior to 2007 was a $102 Billion dollar sector of animal agriculture...to once again supporting 1.4 Million full-time jobs working with horses everyday.”

Consequences of Domestic Slaughter Cessation, documents the decline in horse welfare, and the negative impacts on the overall equine economy as a direct result of the loss of a humane option for otherwise unwanted, unusable, excess horses. Because of the back-door exclusionary efforts of the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS), Congress adopted the first of these damaging appropriations riders in 2005, with more added in 2007 that have prevented any facilities from operating in the forty-six states that do not

have state law preventing them. “That roadblock is now removed,” noted Wallis, “now we shift our focus to resuming profitable legitimate businesses in the horse industry, and a return of normal markets for horses at every level, and every sector of the diverse horse world.” The IEBA is positioned to promote and encourage equine harvesting businesses that are held to high humane handling and food safety standards, in order to bring quality products to a vibrant and viable worldwide market. IEBA will be providing legal defense, political advocacy, business consulting, technological solutions, and more for all aspects of the equine industry. United Horsemen is a 100% volunteer grassroots nationwide organization, joined by practically every animal agriculture and horse industry organization in the country to advocate for humane and regulated horse processing to end the unnecessary and wasteful suffering of horses.

The 2012 Mike Cervi Jr. Memorial Pro Classic

uilding on the overwhelming success of the 2011 Mike Cervi Jr. Memorial Pro Classic, the prestigious roping is looking to add more money and more events to it’s second year in Casa Grande, Arizona on February 22, 2012. “I’d be lying if I said I weren’t just a little nervous making such a big move last year from the Tucson Rodeo Grounds to Casa Grand,” said roping producer George Aros. “But I was confident that once everyone saw what we could do in Casa Grande, they’d be real happy.” Aros’s gamble paid off. The pros followed the roping up the road, and the change of venue was a huge hit. “We really loved how the crowd and the city welcomed us,” said last year’s winner Cory Petska. “It’s great to have enthusiastic fans. The arena conditions were just right too.” Those fans and the ropers have even more to cheer about with the events planned around the next Cervi Roping. For 2012, the Cervi and its related ropings will once again be featured events of the Casa Grande Cowboy Days, a week-long celebration of Roping and Rodeo events running February 18 - 26. The Tuesday pre-roping events get started at 3PM, allowing entrants who will be at Tucson to haul up and get settled. First up, there is a #15 picking two partners for $150 a man. That will be followed by an Open with the same

format. The real advantage to these events is that ropers have a chance to try out the fresh steers and the score line, while getting familiar with the arena. With an 80% payback on each, it’s not a bad payday either. With a history of legendary payoffs, top roping action, and a supportive community, the Cervi has grown to be one of the premier events in the roping calendar. But Aros is not willing to rest on his laurels, and is continuing to make it even better for both the cowboys and the fans. An exciting addition to Wednesday’s competition will be the 1st Annual Cervi Pro-Am Benefit Roping, which kicks off at 9:00AM. This event affords a fantastic opportunity for any #4 or under roper to partner with one of the best in the world in 3 full rounds of competition. A limit of ten amateur headers and ten amateur heelers can enter for $250 per amateur. The order in which entries are received determines the order of picking from the list of Pro partners. As Central Arizona is a mecca for winter roping activity, amateur slots are expected to fill up fast. Any amateur who wants to enter should call producer George Aros first to be sure there is still room. All teams will receive an embroidered jacket, caps, team photo and all day entry pass for the Cervi VIP tent. The average winners will receive the exact same buckle as the Cervi Pro Classic winners, and go-round winners will receive buckles as well. Proceeds from the Pro/Am

will go to the Justin Crisis Fund. All the excitement leads to the signature event on Wednesday, the Mike Cervi Jr. Memorial Pro Classic. With over $40,000 expected to be added to the pot, you can guarantee that every team will be running their best. The format will be a 5 steer average with money paid on the short go and the final. The entry fees for the Cervi will remain at $250 per roper, enter twice. It is important to note, says Aros, “that entries with checks will only be accepted up through January 31, 2012. After that date, it is cash only. I can’t stress that enough.” In addition to seriously huge cash payoffs, winners will receive a handsome Gist Buckle, and custom Running P Saddles. The prize line also includes boots, breast collars, bits and much more. As always, The Justin Cowboy Crisis Fund will come out a big winner as well, as the roping raises funds for the charity. To date, The Cervi has donated over $120,000 to the fund. Aros has upped the game outside the arena as well with some sweet sponsor and competitor perks. The VIP Tent offers ropers and sponsors the hospitality of breakfast, lunch, beverages and snacks throughout the day. “We’re really excited about the addition of the tent. It gives folks a place to get a quick bite, or just kick back awhile,” said Aros. Sponsorship levels have new packages of benefits including things like sponsor seating area passes, VIP parking area and tent passes, grandstand tickets they can give

away, inclusion in advertising, arena signage, vendor space and more. The City of Casa Grande is once again excited to be the host of the Cervi, and plans are well underway for the 2nd Annual Casa Grande Cowboy Days. The week long event that surrounds the Cervi kicks off with a downtown parade and Indian Rodeo the first weekend. The hugely popular, all Canadian, Maple Leaf Classic will take place on Monday the 20th. Following the Cervi events, there will be a day of Barrel Racing on Thursday, a World Series Roping Friday, and the faced paced fun of the Ranch Rodeo ends up the week. Dick Powell, one of the organizers of Cowboy Days and member of the Pinal County Sheriff’s Posse, said, “after the success of last year, the Posse and the folks with the City of Casa Grande are really excited to expand Cowboy Days. The Indian Rodeo is a welcomed addition, and the parade, along with the arts and crafts fair that will follow it, will be a great event for our community. This schedule has a lot to offer the fans too.” A premier event, in a top-notch facility, the 2012 Cervi Roping has something for amateurs, professionals and fans alike. After 34 years, it just keeps getting better. For more information, call George Aros, 520241-2241 or visit arosroping.com

Cowboy Night Before Christmas Story and Photos Compliments of Jim Olson

Onward came the cowboy, came from afar, curiously following the glow of a star. Arrived at the livery, place for his horse. Bit of extra oats on a chilly night of course. Told the stable man, hey, thanks for the light, lit the desert nicely - such a dark night. The man just grinned and said with a nod, Sir, it was not me - I believe it was God! Amongst the burros and sheep freshly shorn, cooed a little baby, not long ago born. Parents huddled, three men gathered round, gazed lovingly - babe on the ground. Cowboy was curious as men usually are; knew right then, the purpose of the star. No doubt in his mind, he was on hand, to witness a birth - worlds only perfect man. Babe stared at him, right into his soul, knew all about him, but how did he know? Piercing blue eyes that seemed to speak, cowboy got a message - knees grew weak. Horse rip-snorted, sat right up in bed, guess he’d been dreamin’, twas all in his head. Up with a start, realizing the dream; seemed so real, these things that he’d seen. Voice came to him from deep within, said cowboy - past is gone, you are forgiven. Trust your instincts inside, I put ‘em there, ‘member I’m with you, here, everywhere. Tend your horses, cattle and fellow man, to do right by me, treat ‘em best as you can. Pondered a while the message received; witnessed a miracle, was what he believed. Message echoed in his head loud and clear, help your fellow man - both far and near. Remember now, be kind to children, take care of your soul, you must make amends. Cowboy resolved to do better, best he could; world surely needs, a bit more good. Cowboy felt warm and fuzzy all over, like a wild horse herd, knee deep in clover. Sat there a-rubbin’ grog from his eyes, looks to the window - saw another surprise. Perched on the sill - a snow-white Dove, knows it has to be, a sign from above. Cowboy just smiled, thought man what a night; Dove then nodded, took off in flight. Twas no use a-trying to sleep after that, got up, got dressed, and stuffed on his hat. Passed by the calendar - on the wall. December 25th - well doesn’t that beat all? Enters the barn, time to throw feed; horse is sweaty, what’s wrong with the steed? He’s been ridden, evidence clear showed; looks in the bin, oats have been throwed! Cold winter chill, straight down the spine, knew he’d encountered something Divine!

Merry Christmas All! Jim Olson @ 2011

ll-Around “Clay Tryan is my favorite team roper,” Mendiaz said sitting atop his new ride. “I’m going to keep roping!” He ducked his head with a shy smile. The ten to twelve age group kept the fans in the coliseum on its feet. It didn’t take long for two favorites to emerge. The roping quickly became a roping of talent, wits, concentration and strategy. Grace Hawkins and Tanner Beauchamp held all the fans spell bound. Hawkins was the only girl in the Junior Shoot-Out. When the line was moved to fourteen feet Hawkins and Beauchamp matched loop for loop. At eighteen feet both Hawkins and

Beauchamp failed to qualify so the difference was split at seventeen and a half feet. Receiving some expertise coaching from her sister and champion team roper Speed Williams Hawkins stayed calm, cool and collected. However, in the final rope off it would be Beauchamp who would grab the win. It was excitement beyond belief. Hawkins has been carrying a rope since she was about two years old. She has a horse named Champ and hopes to one day rope in the Cruel Girl Roping. “I’ve been doing the Junior Looper Ropings since their inception and I’ve never

seen a girl go past fifteen feet,” said Walt Eddy. “She is a phenomenal roper.” Beauchamp has a horse named BB and Jake Barnes is his favorite roper. He seemed pretty content sitting atop his new saddle. “I’m in fourth grade,” Beauchamp said with intensity, “and I’ve been roping for about eighteen years.” I couldn’t help but swallow a laugh. Our team roping kids are a very special group. They are our future. Personally, I feel pretty safe and secure in their commitment to do well and strive for the best.

Classic Thanksgiving Dinner Cost Increases 13% in 2011

By Melinda Clements

New this year … an organic price survey.

The arena floor was covered with kids; all sizes, all ages, young and old alike. They had gathered for a Shoot-Out. It wasn’t the gun fight kind of shoot out but a roping shoot out. If you think adults are serious about team roping better take a closer glance at these kids. “You’ve tackled every job that ever came your way,” Pa said. “You never shirked, and you always stuck to it till you did what you set out to do. Success gets to be a habit, like anything else a fellow keeps on doing” (These Happy Golden Years by Laura Ingalls Wilder). We are raising a bunch of doers! If nothing else in the world seems right team ropers and their kids are doing something spectacular and we should be proud. The Junior Looper Shoot-Out kicked off with the six and under age group. They are, by far, the most fun to watch. With a serious and fierce determination that belies their small stature you never want to underestimate the little guys. They may be small but they rope with the intensity of a grizzly bear. When the competition ended in the six and under one roper loomed above the rest. Logan Begay was awarded a new saddle for his efforts. At fifteen feet both Begay and his competition missed so the mark was moved forward to fourteen feet, which meant a reach of nineteen feet was needed to rope the horns of the Jakesteer. At fourteen feet Begay exhibited an aim and intensity that made the big boys pale in comparison. Sitting atop his new saddle Logan Begay soaked up all the attention. “I have a horse named Mercedes,” Logan offered. “Hope she doesn’t buck this saddle off.” Begay is in kindergarten. He likes to rope all the time. Surrounded by his family Begay liked being in the spot light. To him it was just another roping. Honestly, I’d like to know how Mercedes handled the new saddle. The seven to nine years age group in the Junior Looper Shoot-Out proved to be as competitive as the first roping. Six young ropers made bids on winning the new saddle. At thirteen feet, one champion emerged. Luis Mendiaz is from Santa Fe, New Mexico. He is in the third grade. “I like heading and heeling and I have a horse named Vaya,” he explained. With lots of coaching from the sidelines Mendiaz was able to out rope his competitor.

As Arizonans sat down at the Thanksgiving table to dig into the traditional feast this year, the turkey dinner with all the trimmings will cost $50.06 for an Arizona family of 10, or around $5.00 per person. This is an increase of $5.89 or about 13 percent over the 2010 Arizona Thanksgiving meal ($44.17) and 86 cents over this year’s American Farm Bureau Thanksgiving survey of $49.20. Without factoring in store coupons or specials, the cost of a 16-pound turkey purchased in Arizona this year was $21.28, or $1.33 cents per pound, which reflects an increase of 28 cents per pound, or a total of $4.48 per the whole turkey over last year. This year’s meal is still $2.75 cheaper than what shoppers paid three years ago, when the total was $52.81. The 2011Arizona Thanksgiving meal cost estimate is the result of the Arizona Farm Bureau’s annual informal Thanksgiving Dinner Price Survey of the prices of basic food items found on the Thanksgiving dinner table. New this year is an Organic Price Survey on the same basic food items found on the Thanksgiving dinner table. The Organic Thanksgiving dinner with all the trimmings will cost $106.39, over twice the amount of the non-organic purchase of the same items. The biggest ticket item was a 16-pound organic turkey at $63.84 or $3.99 per pound. Milk, pumpkin mix, and cubed bread stuffing were also significantly higher in price than the non-organic items. The Arizona Farm Bureau survey shopping list includes turkey, stuffing, sweet potatoes, rolls with butter, peas, cranberries, a relish tray including carrots and celery, pumpkin pie with whipped cream plus coffee and milk, all in quantities sufficient to serve a family of 10. To make a proper comparison, these items are the same food items used in the national Farm Bureau survey for the past two decades. “Throughout the year we’re fortunate to enjoy a bounty of foods produced in Arizona and across the nation, said Arizona Farm Bureau President Kevin Rogers, a cotton and alfalfa farmer from Maricopa County. “It’s especially appropriate as we gather at the Thanksgiving table to savor not only food and fellowship, but to take a moment to recognize that this blessing begins with our hard-working farm and

ranch families. Arizona agriculture is a $10.3 billion industry and is a major component of the state’s economy.” Arizona farmers and ranchers produce most of the ingredients in the traditional Thanksgiving meal including dressing (bread, onions and celery), peas, pumpkin and pecans for pies, and several others. Even roses, sometimes used for holiday centerpieces, are grown in Arizona. “Based on this year’s average meal cost, Arizona residents can enjoy a traditional Thanksgiving meal for around $5.00 per person. That’s worthy of many thanks,” Rogers concluded. Arizona Farm Bureau encourages expert shoppers and in-store grocery personnel to beat its market basket price. “If a shopper comes in below the $50.06 Farm Bureau price, let us know on

Arizona Farm Bureau’s www.fillyourplate.org. List your success on our “Farmer Forum,” says Julie Murphree, director of public relations for Arizona Farm Bureau. The average price of the remainder of the menu includes: three pounds of sweet potatoes, $3.87; a 16-ounce package of frozen green peas, $1.96; one gallon of whole milk, $3.00; a half-pint carton of whipping cream, $1.89; a package of two nine-inch pie shells, $2.49; a 12-ounce package of fresh cranberries, $2.49; a 14ounce package of cubed stuffing, $3.06; a 30-ounce can of pumpkin pie mix, $3.43; miscellaneous items like eggs, sugar, flour and coffee, $3.15; one-half pound each of carrots and celery for a relish tray, $1.08; and a 12-ounce package of brown-andserve rolls, $2.36.

The Farm Bureau Thanksgiving Dinner Price Survey is unscientific, but serves as a gauge of actual price trends across the state. This survey is based on shelf price and does not reflect special prices and promotional gimmicks. Shoppers involved in this year’s survey were asked to identify the best in-store price, excluding promotional coupons and special deals. Farm Bureau’s survey menu has remained unchanged since 1986 to allow for consistent price comparisons.

THE FIRST 5 STRAND CALF ROPE WITH A CORE What happens when five strands of low stretch poly fibers are woven around a solid braided core? You get a rope with speed and snap as quick as a viper’s strike, but with more consistency and less stretch than any calf rope on the market today. With the feel of your favorite polygrass and the strength and stability that only Coretech can give,you won’t break this rope. And like a viper, its the same every time…

Dear Ropers, Do you feel like a million dollars? That is exactly what the USTRC is about to bestow on all of its competing members in 2012. Not to feel like a million dollars, but to present all of you collectively with an actual million dollars in cash! This is a game changer, as it far exceeds anything that has ever been done at the USTRC since the invention of the Shoot-Out. The consequences are going to be truly revolutionary. Why? Because instead of you, the roper, contributing added money to the National Finals Shoot-Out Fund, that money will now be provided solely by the USTRC, and it’s guaranteed to be a minimum of One Million Dollars! From here on out, not one dime of your entry fees will go toward added money at the National Finals of Team Roping (NFTR). For those of you who are unclear on how huge payouts at the NFTR have been previously generated, here is a quick reminder. A critical aspect of USTRC’s success was to create a National Finals event unsurpassed in the amount of money awarded to its National Champions. That goal has been accomplished, signified by the fact that for the last 11 years, over one million dollars of added money has magnified the incredible purses at the USTRC National Finals of Team Roping. Until now, a large portion of that money has come from the roper, in the form of a five percent contribution coming

out of your entry fees at every USTRC sanctioned roping. Your contributions helped to build the National Finals of Team Roping into the sport’s premier event – the largest and richest team roping in the world. In appreciation for all you’ve done, the USTRC is stepping up to contribute all of the added money, and we guarantee to add one million dollars to the NFTR purse. This commitment demonstrates how much faith the USTRC has in this sport and its members. But what exactly does this pledge mean to you? It means cash purses at every sanctioned event will dramatically increase. Based on roper contributions in 2011, over $750,000 more cash will be paid out at sanctioned events per season, without you having to lift a financial finger. That’s the new deal, the revolution USTRC is initiating right now. But the roper is not the only beneficiary. The business of producing team ropings is not an easy road to travel. USTRC producers have a substantial commitment in time, effort and money for every roping they put on, with no guarantee to earn a profit. And ropers, they do HAVE to earn a profit, or they will not be in this business very long. So the USTRC further pledges support of the unsung heroes of our business – the producers. You may not be aware that USTRC producers have also significantly contributed to the National Finals Shoot-Out Fund. In 2011, producers

added over a quarter of a million dollars out of their pocket to the Shoot-Out Fund. In the 2012 season, producers are no longer required to contribute to the Fund. This helps our producers stay in the game so they can continue providing ropers the best productions found anywhere in the sport of team roping. So, the revolution is upon us. The 2012 season marks a historic juncture in USTRC history as we continue our quest to provide greater value to our members. Now, ropers who cannot attend the Cinch NFTR won’t see their money siphoned off to an event he or she cannot attend. But the NFTR remains intact with the enormous cash purses and nominal entry fees that have made the NFTR the preeminent team roping year after year. Now cash purses at sanctioned events will grow by more than an estimated $750,000. You no longer need a math degree and a Cray computer to figure how much of your entry fees go into the roper’s pot. That number is two-thirds. Period. End of story! Sincerely,

Kirk Bray

Alves Wins World Championship — Earns $1.4 Million

ll-Around

By: Jack Carnefix / PBR

ilvano Alves became the first rider in PBR history to win the Built Ford Tough Series World Championship the year after earning the Rookie of the Year title on Sunday. Alves earned $1 million for winning the World Championship, which brings his season earnings to $1,456,964. “I am very content to be the champion of the world,” Alves said. “This is a dream that every bull rider has. I managed to do this without becoming injured this year. Those two things together make me very content with the outcome.” Alves, who has earned $1,778,544 in 18 months competing on the BFTS, finished with 15,742 points. He finished third in the World Finals event average with 434.5 points and earned $93,875 from the event itself. The World Finals, which drew almost 70,000 fans through five days at the Thomas & Mack Center, is the richest bull riding event on the planet, with a total purse of $2.2 million, including the $1 million bonus to the World Champion. Robson Palermo won the World Finals event title with 446.25 points, earning $301,375, which gave him $618,875 for the season and $1,848,286 for his career. Palermo, who also won the World Finals event title in 2008, finished 305 points behind runner-up Valdiron de Oliveira in the World Championship standings. Oliveira earned $396,171 for the season to bring his career earnings to $1,432,404. Palermo won the Built Ford Tough Championship Round with 93.25 points on King Of Hearts (Corey & Lange). The score ties him for the 20th-highest score in World Finals history, and earned Palermo the Lane Frost/Brent Thurman Award, presented to the bull rider with the highest-marked ride at that World Finals. Palermo had the two highest scores of the regular season with 93.5 points on RMEF Gunpowder & Lead in Milwaukee, and 93.25 points on the same bull at Pueblo, Colo. Caleb Sanderson, who led after each of the first four days, finished second with 440.75 points. In his third season on the BFTS, he earned $182,375 at the World Finals to increase his season earnings to $270,342. In his first two seasons on the BFTS, Sanderson had earned $159,610. Rubens Barbosa was named the PBR Rookie of the Year with $209,799, including $112,500 after a fourth-place finish at the World Finals. He won Round 5 and $25,000 on Sunday with 92.5 points on Priceless (D&H Cattle Co./L&E Bulls). He tied for first place in Round 2 with Oliveira, scoring 90.75 points on Cowboy Casanova (Mesa Bucking Bulls). Bushwacker (Julio Moreno/Richard Oliveira) won the World Champion Bull title with 96 points, including the highest bull score of the season with 48.5 points (out of a

possible 50 points per out) on Friday. Bushwacker, who was 2-0 at World Finals and 14-0 in BFTS outs in 2011, also won the Mikel Moreno Bull of the PBR Finals award. He is 28-1 all-time in BFTS events, including a buckoff streak of 26 consecutive riders. Asteroid (Circle T Ranch & Rodeo) finished second with 92.5 points, followed by RMEF Gunpowder & Lead (Jeff Robinson Bucking Bulls) with 91.8 points, and Smackdown (Dakota Rodeo/Chad Berger/Struve/Rosen) with 90.5 points. Aaron Roy won $139,993 to capture his fourth consecutive Glen Keeley Award, presented to the Canadian bull rider who earns the most money during the season.

eaving off from last month, there is still a lot of buzz going around the rodeo and team roping world. Additionally, the holiday season is always exciting for me. With four little boys anticipating the night Santa Claus comes dashing around the world, you can bet they are fired up, and I, too, am looking forward to the Holidays when I can enjoy my family and friends. On into this month’s “Dirt,” - After returning from this year’s National Finals of Team Roping, I was once again pretty impressed. Considering all of the conditions faced at the event, poor economy, scarce roping cattle and the decrease of entries at events throughout the year, I believe the USTRC stood out with a fantastic event. Ropers who attended the event were treated to the same great conditions that have made the USTRC the ultimate team roping association. What really impressed me the most was the continuity of the USTRC. Everyone who worked the event, and there are quite a few, worked together. Each individual did their job well and together that rolled into one well-run event. From the stall office, arena crew, announcers, and secretaries, clear to the video and photographers, as well as those great ladies who keep the staff fed throughout the nine days, the event never had a hiccup. Ropers in attendance had nothing to worry about except to rope for hundreds of thousands of dollars. I want to say congratulations to USTRC Champion, Seth Hall. I have known Seth a long time. In fact I used to try to buck him off steers when he was about 8 or 9 years old. Seeing him win a National Championship at the NFTR was pretty cool. Also, congratulations to Ferlin Charlie. Ferlin is a great guy and it was exciting to see him win the #12 Gold Plus Shoot-Out and then rope off for the truck and tractor. Now I want to move on to the rodeo scene here in the Southwest. I can see that the cycle of events is once again coming around. The NMRA has had their share of ups and downs this past season but wrapped things up with a pretty impressive Season Finals. The GCPRA did the same, but seemed to have a smoother season, with lots of great rodeos playing out under the Arizona sun this past year. The cycle I mentioned is the one that comes around every 5-6 years. One association does really well while the other struggles. This I believe has a lot to do with who is in charge of the association. Not that they are not good at the task and believe me, I would rather lose a foot than be a president or a director of any rodeo association and commend those who tackle the inglorious task. However, when these positions change as they did last year with the NMRA, so does the association. That is why these people do

it. They do not get financially compensated, they are usually the one getting an ear full about something about three minutes before they have to compete and it takes a lot out of their time. They do it because they see a need for a change. I believe with one season under their belt, the NMRA is heading towards the next one full steam ahead. They know what to expect and how to work better towards their goal. Much like the USTRC Finals I mentioned before, the smooth operation of the entire event depends on everyone working together. Now the USTRC has had lots of years to perfect their events, but the knowledge of working as a team and working together will help the NMRA become even more successful. I also have to commend and have several people speak well of a close friend of mine. With my young boys competing at the Jr. Rodeo level, I have met a lot of new people over the past several years. I have to say this may be the toughest set of critics when it comes to the griping and complaining. I understand, too. As a parent, I want my kids to have a chance to do their best and have fun at these rodeos and I also get discouraged when things are ill-run or, in my eyes, disappointing. However, from when I first began taking my kids to these events until now, I have seen quite a bit of improvement – especially in the roping events. To begin, there are a lot more kids competing in these events. Pondering this idea, I did not realize why until Cody McDaugle from the Cibola County Gymkhana Rodeo series pointed it out to me. All he said was “the quality of cattle,” and it snapped. Of course, the local events around my area have had the opportunity to rope cattle from the Rafter Five cattle Company. John English and Tim Muncy, owners of the company have been supplying the cattle to many of these events and they have been great for these kids to learn on. The steers don’t look like they have been roped to death and the calves don’t run to the other side of the arena like a coyote with buckshot in his tail. Of course English has a reason to bring great cattle to events as his son Sterlin is always entered and one of the best young ropers in the field. But above that John and Tim take time to keep good cattle for these kids to compete on. I commend these guys on taking this task and I think in the long run, New Mexico will have a bumper crop of great ropers coming up through the ranks in the near future. Enough said this month, and I am sure this one is way too long, but before I go I want to wish everyone a Merry Christmas and the happiest New Year. Until then – “Dirt” Keep it under your feet!

As part of its new sponsorship deal with the Professional Rodeo Cowboys Association, Hesston by Massey Ferguson will be donating a Massey Ferguson tractor to be auctioned at the Nov. 28 Wrangler Gold Buckle Gala in Las Vegas. The Massey Ferguson 1635HL will be the centerpiece of the silent and live auction portion of the gala at the South Point Hotel & Casino’s Grand Ballroom. All proceeds will go to benefit the ProRodeo Hall of Fame and Museum of the American Cowboy in Colorado Springs, Colo. The Massey Ferguson 1635HL with front-end loader is a 35.7 horsepower tractor with robust steel and cast-iron construction, four-wheel drive, and independent rear and mid PTOs. It has been designed with innovative features that make it easier to operate and even downright luxurious with uncluttered easy-to-understand controls, a roomy operator’s area and a list of options that goes on forever. The list price of this tractor is $29,000. Other live auction items at the Wrangler Gold Buckle Gala include a two-night stay and two days of golf at George Strait’s The Resort at Tapatio Springs in the Texas hill country, a custom saddle made for the ProRodeo Hall of Fame by Cactus Saddlery, a “Spinnin’ in Vegas” bronze commissioned by Coors from artist Steve Miller and a Stadium Cowboy print by artist Sophy Brown. Tickets to the gala are $100 apiece or $900 for a table of 10. The price includes dinner and dancing to the songs of Susie Dobbs. Doors open at 6 p.m. Call 719.528.4714 or 719.528.4748 to

make reservations. The banquet will pay tribute to this year’s Legend of ProRodeo Shawn Davis, a three-time world champion saddle bronc rider and current general manager of the Wrangler NFR.

Larry “Wild Man” Sandvick Bareback rider Larry “Wild Man” Sandvick, a 12-time Wrangler NFR qualifier (1992-93, 1995-2004), recently purchased Beast Master Bareback Riggin Company from Dennis Schmidt and is operating it out of Kaycee, Wyo., as Wild Man Riggins.

Dear NMRA members: Cautious optimism? Call it what you will, I liked our finals! As a contestant it felt like a really good finals. As president I’m still tired, but in a good way. Can we do better? Absolutely! Your directors are already analyzing what happened and developing plans for next year. This is all positive stuff that is chipping away at some of the negative stigma surrounding the NMRA despite the never ending attacks against your association. That’s right! The NMRA is your association! I hope each of you understands that as a member you own a share in this corporation and you do have a voice. You can choose to be proactive or you can “throw your sucker down and leave the playground!” The decision is yours to make. We will be here and you are always welcome. I was one of them, you know? An “armchair quarterback” that sits behind the chutes or the roping box or even in an office (spreading their opinions, despite the fact that their “glass half empty approach” can add to the negative energy that desperately wants to take a hold on this association). Oh crap! Did he say energy? I can hear my directors now, squirming in their pickup seats and making excuses for me. (“Oh that’s just John…. you know he’s from Taos”). I am not one of those people anymore, because I understand that there is a vast wasteland between being a contestant critic and the decision to get involved and make positive change. I urge each of you to try it in the

future. It’s not easy but it is worthwhile. Any successful venture has one common denominator… It’s people! There were so many people that came together to make our finals a success and to name them and say what I would like to say about each of them would fill all the pages in this issue. (Given my previous comment I doubt I would be getting any price breaks from the publisher for that idea) However, there are those key people that without their distinct efforts none of what occurred would have been possible. First and foremost our sponsors. Your continued support and dedication to this association and rodeo in New Mexico does not go unnoticed. I cannot express enough to you my personal gratitude for what you do for us, and I hope in some small way mentioning your names on these pages are payment in kind. Jeremy Sours: All I can say about this young man is this: “You are a class act, Jeremy” You represent everything that is positive and good about the future of rodeo. Thank you. Janice Aragon, Donna Tolbert, Susie Kauffman, Jana Muncy and Amber Gillreath. Wow! What a tough job they have, and how well do they do it? My hat is off to each of you and I will forever be indebted to all of you for your hard work and dedication. We would be sunk without you ladies. Your 2011 NMRA finals stock contractors: Buster Webb, Richard Hodgson and Mark Sanchez. I am truly proud to have each of you affiliated with this

association and even though we may not always see eye to eye, you gentlemen are the best at what you do and I do appreciate your dedication to our sport and this association. Stony Neufang and his judging crew: You guys are one of the most underappreciated and over worked groups out there. Thank you for your consistency and hard work, none of what we do would be possible without you. Your 2011 NMRA directors: I cannot say enough positive things about this group of people. Each of you is to be congratulated for your hard work and dedication. However, I would be remiss in my duties as president if I did not recognize a couple of individuals who in my opinion went above and beyond this year. Brian Sullivan and Carrie Richardson….. Thank you. Last but not least to my wife and my two boys: Thank you, thank you for patiently waiting on the side lines at each rodeo, thank you for allowing “our personal rodeo world” to be forever changed. Thank you for understanding about all the late nights and the endless phone calls. I could not do it without you. With the upcoming holiday season, I pray that your lives will be filled with famous family memories and maybe a new saddle. Until next time, John Adams NMRA President

The Golden Calf just heard about a Hereford cow in England who gave birth to her second calf in three months. I’m not talking about a twin, I’m referring to a miracle known as “superfecundation.” It sounds dirty to me but it means that a second egg got impregnated a few months after the first, causing another pregnancy at a later stage of development. Being a tightwad, my first thought was, when the vet preg-checked did he charge for one cow, or two? At first I thought this cow should be put into an embryo transfer program and start pumping out copies. Two calves per year would double your profit and could give the Hereford Association something really BIG to promote. But on second thought, two calf crops per year might mean you’d just go broke twice as fast! You’d have to buy twice as much hay and vaccine and how would you mark the ear tags, 1A and 1B? The banker would demand twice as much collateral and your wife would be grouchy for six months, A instead of only three, when she had to get up to check the heifers. Having the neighbors over for one branding per year is already one time too many, and if this

catches on you’ll have to pick up twice the beer cans and horse leavings. With double the calves you’ll have to rope twice as many, which might make you a better roper, and then the USTRC would reclassify you and you’d never win. Your cows would have to give twice as much milk and you could end up with a bunch of leppy calves with a cow herd made up of “milk duds”. I could go on and on like this. At the same time I heard about the fertile Myrtle cow I read an article in Time Magazine about favored children. As a middle child this is a subject very near and dear to my heart as I was the kid who never got to ride in the cab of the pickup. Time Magazine confirmed what I already knew, mothers and fathers have favorites despite their denials. In multiple studies a minimum of 65% of mothers and 70% of fathers exhibited a preference for one child, and I’m sure the percentage is much higher with cows. The “Golden Child” is2011 usually the BUILT BY-P/U W/CHNGS-DP IN HOUSE PROOF MONTH-DEC oldest, especially if it’s a son, but the favored can also be the youngest daughter.
