Roping Shots - It’s all in the wrist

hi folks we tired a lot of people contact us since I've heard thinking around with this rope and deal and it kind of tickles me so what I'm gonna do is break it down today because we're gonna make a rope and video but it's going to take all summer to make it because I got to cover everything so for those of you that are interested I want to start you out so that by the time we get the video out you've already be on your way and we don't have to mess around but Shawn got a hold of us about the difference with the asking about a poly rope being close to his rieta as you can get well in some ways that is true then for me personally I used a poly when I lived up north in the wintertime because you could stick them in the water and in the spring especially you could just put them in the water and get the mud off and go where you can a nylon and you damn sure don't use the Reata up north and the BET in the winter of the spring so that's one time I used to probably but what I noticed over time was that they didn't call well after a while bearing in mind that I slide rope and because they put wire in the strands to me it ruined the Polly's so that's why I go to the five sixteenths nylon now this is a Reata this is from sonora these are the best reales that I've ever been around the difference between a react and a poly is that a Reata is always wanting to coil and a poly after a wild doesn't want a coil so the loops that we throw were actually originally used for the reactor so when you throw them they're always wanting to coil so they they curl in your favor so a lot of these shots you throw they're a lot easier to throw with the Rionda well nowadays these cost a lot of money so we don't use them that much because they're so expensive but the point is that's my feeling on the poly and the difference comparing a poly to reacted to me is an insult all right what I want to show you today is three three ways to roll your hand over that's where everybody gets in trouble this way this way and this way what that means is the first thing you gotta do is learn how to split your loop flipping your loop means you're hanging on to the spoke and let go of the loop for those of you that have gone to the dark side and spent a lot of years donate the team roping young kids this is a hard concept for you to get I used to donate to them and I got tired of it split the loop let the loop go and hang on to the spoke that's how a lot of these shots are accomplished the other thing you got to keep in your mind is that your left hand if you don't throw with coils your left hand is going to let a coil out when you're learning this then it's going to learn to let to out so you've got two things to work on so the first one this is for read my friend in Texas he was rolling his hand over and thinking that was the shot of a showing him which it isn't rolling your hand over low is what I grew up calling the Mexican Pig loop because you could just roll around and catch a pig which is why but we're going to go with that one first but you split the loop so you literally swing the rope and let the Rope just like that so you're gonna learn to roll it and what it's for we used to pull our bowls in August we follow these Hereford bulls back to camp like ours so you learned how to catch one hind foot it's for the right hind foot is what I use it for I'm gonna slow it down and roll the loop and hit the hind leg so I'm let go of the loop hang on to the smoke and just turn your hand over side arm swing now every human I've ever worked with does not slow down I'm killing the snake just simply roll in the rope and roll learn to get that shot lay it in front of the right hind leg well the critter is walking so read when you're working your dog and bringing them Caviar's in just walk behind them and practice this shot you can do it this way too and start setting your trap when the leg is back you throw as a lake come forward two steps in the trap this particular move ties into a whole lot of really beautiful California loose [Music] rock or swing and roll it's a one play catch you catch too sometimes but I liked it I liked it because if I caught the right hind leg that's something really sick then I knew I didn't have to screw around trying to get one leg if I had the time down the doctor so if he cuts the right line get off your horse on the left side you just walk around behind your horse hold your set creditor down and doctor if you catch the left fine you want to walk up to this side well it's all the better you could pitch is what I'm trying to say all right now you got that going on so now you make your loop a little bit bigger now you start rolling it over the barrel laid over the barrel okay the other next shot what you're throwing when you do this here's the beginning of a Johnny blocker but a Johnny blocker comes from up here now you'll notice the swing goes down over the left shoulder and when you release up here and turn just turn your hand it's a bigger loop you're gonna split your loop dip on the left shoulder and roll the look over the barrel it's not for a loop there side for a loop this size now after you've felt comfortable about doing this you literally watch the rope you don't do anything you just watch it you let it go hold the spoke and you'll watch the rope turn over the reason I want you to learn this is because there's a whole lot of shots connected to it so now you've got the barrel you just simply rope the dummy when you throw it your hand you just drop your horns on it you deserve to walk up and take it off every time until you figure out you're gonna learn it up close and split swing swing up don't worry about your slack now to get it off the barrel flip it start learning that because that's what's gonna save you later on for doing a whole lot of things swing swing twist your hand up remember the first one was Tom down I mean thumb down palm up split the spoke stand close if you want to get particular like I know Reed's gonna do if you touch the barrel your Lube isn't centered so you want to get to where you don't touch the barrel when you drop it on there it's just part of the learning curve let's now take a step back and you rope the dummy what I've learned over the years is that if you practice on a bucket or a barrel you're not intimidated by the rope'n dummy coming after all look at it so when the human gets good at the barrel then just simply turn their body and rope that then they're just so proud so split up here's the trivia part of this you're gonna this is what you need to understand when we throw the del viento and the contra we deliver now watch we deliver this way right this much rope will slide through our hands then we stop it so we hold the spoke but you're going to let some rope go through your hand that's how you keep the loop big all the way to the target if you put a death grip on it you're going to stop it so learn to let it slide across your palm devil slowly is down slides across your hand normally slides a couple inches but that's the part that nobody ever gets and tell me that's courage so those are the three to work on have fun and I really would like to hear from everybody could you look around we don't have many neighbors but if you get a hold of us please tell me where you're from because I'm a big geography fan we this is the best break away Honda there is it's cheap and it works but what you do is you take it and you put it in a vise and you take a shoeing rats to it because I know you all still chew your own horses and you file it out lean it against one side then lean it against the other side and make a V then you take a flat file in the vise and you file through it now this will undo real easy on a breakaway you don't want it solid because it pops back and if you hit your horse and your wife and your dog or whatever you hit you're gonna make somebody mad so do that and that's the secret to these the other one is if you get a 5/16 robe and this just spins around on your robe wrap your push your handi through I mean you're you're not put a couple wraps of black tape on it and then slide this back on it so you shim it with electrical tape or a duct tape then it doesn't do this all the time you want it to kind of stay still that's what kills everybody they just spin around you get discouraged that's the trick on the breakaway Reed I'm showing you this because you can be on your horse walking along having your dog gathered reach out their necks up and then practice down and then it'll just pop off you want it to break real easy okay thanks a lot good luck
