Friday night I won my first team roping. I won the first and second hole. It was so exiting. Finally, my first buckle!!! I have been trying so hard for so long, and finally everything came together. I must give all the glory to God, becuase without him, I would not have this ability.

I will post pics as soon as I develop them.

This was a saddle series, but this was the first one I attended. I had no shot at winning the saddle, but I could win the prizes for that night. I ended up helping the guy in second place for the saddle win it. He and I won first, and that was enough money to push him into first place for the saddle. I won the second hole with the guy who was leading for the saddle, but it wasnt enough money for him to win it since he was only leading by $16. My brother was third high team, but they were only paying 2 holes. I felt sorry for him, but thats the way it goes sometimes.

Afther paying my entry fees, I ended up clearing $120.00, and a very pretty buckle. We are heading to Laredo this coming weekend to try and do it again! Yall take care.

Congrats man. I guess that mare is doing is her job.

 

mare? did i tell you that. My heel stick is gelding, and he is working out excellent.

 

Way to go Pard!

I can catch a sawhorse pretty good, but when things start moving, I have a few problems.

Roping is not as easy as some think. Winning is quite an accomplishment.

"Throwing a rope is easy......catching something is another story!"

 

Way to go Palmetto, the first buckle you win is always the sweetest.

 

Yup. You said mare. Glad to know that HE is working out for ya.

 

Congrats! You guys sure are fun to watch! If you come up to the Buffalo or Hamel rodeos in Minnesota next June, I'll even put you up for the weekend
