Roping Lessons 101

Rule Number 1: Have an uncle show you the "ropes" of roping.

Rule Number 2: Make sure orange cowboys boots are still
tucked in, and hold the rope up high.

Rule Number 3: Swing higher and faster.
Aim for target, such as a ball.

Rule Number 4: Make sure you look confident
when the rope actually goes around the target.

Jake was 4 years old when Uncle John taught him how to rope. Seeing Paige try to rope made me think back to this day. I guess the cowboy thing is just in their blood....

  1. We had a bale of hay that had a "calf" head in one end to practice on. Spent a good number of hours aimlessly with it. That is until the hay got moldy - and we had to get a new one.
