Second Rodeo

Hey there, how is everyone? Well I ended up making money at Pierson in the team roping. I placed last hole and made 90 bucks or something, I was pretty pumped about that. Just this past weekend we were in Hamiota. We had a major snow storm for the weekend so for the saturday night performance there was a total of 14 contestants. It was a pretty small rodeo. We had to haul the calves back and forth for the rodeo because the stock contractor had none. I had a terrible run in the calf roping, I made way to many mistakes and didn't even get to throw my rope:(. In the team roping my great father, which is my partner, he is the header and forgot to catch the steer so I once again didn't get to throw my rope. The highschool rodeo was cancelled due to the storm which was not happy for me. Well we are going to keep practicing and get ready for the next one on May long. Hope your careers are going good!

  1. Don't forget to change paragraphs when you change topics. How come your father forgot to catch the steer? Could you include some video to help show your readers what calf roping is all about? Is it possible to include a diagram with explanation of the role of the "header?"
