With professional rodeo cowboys and cowgirls heading out on the rodeo trail with aspirations of having one of the best Fourth of July runs on their lives, The Team Roping Journal plans to bring you up-to-date coverage from the road all week long through its wide-reaching digital platforms.
This year the Fourth run looks a little different with only a handful of rodeos carrying on their traditions due to COVID-19 cancelations.
