Roping.com has plenty of exciting new things coming Fall 2023. From the Riata Buckle Stallion Incentive and Patrick Smith’s Stay Driven, to DT Horses and A&C Racing & Roping with Rhen Richard, Roping.com will keep you busy this fall.
Riata Buckle
In its second installment, the Riata Buckle Stallion Incentive will payout at least $2.5 million to ropers, breeders and stallion owners at the Lazy E Arena in Guthrie, Oklahoma, and once more Roping.com will be the only place to watch all the action.
The event kicks off Thursday, Nov. 2 with the $100,000 Riata Buckle Breakaway, with a $25,000-guaranteed 4-Year-Old Incentive. The $100,000-guaranteed Open 5-&-Under Futurity with a $25,000 4-Year-Old Incentive will start the day Friday, Nov. 3, with the numbered ropings starting immediately after and running through Sunday, Nov. 5. The event offers everything from a #14.5 All-Age Championship with $100,000 guaranteed and a $25,000 5-and-under sidepot to a #9.5 All-Age Championship with $550,0000 promised to the pot and $100,000 guaranteed to horses 6 and younger.
A&C Racing & Roping Masterclass
Rhen Richard, Kaden Richard and their Colt Specialist Trinity Haggard are bringing their full program to Roping.com this October, with feature-length videos giving you an inside look into their breeding operation and magic crosses to conformation and training videos with their top-tier futurity and rodeo horses. The A&C Racing and Roping series is a true masterclass on building a world-class horse program, pulling back the curtain on the operation like never before.
Stay Driven
Patrick Smith’s two videos—Driven and Driven 2.0—are consistently Roping.com members’ favorites as the two most popular instructional videos on the website. Just in time for the NFR in 2023, Smith is releasing Stay Driven, streaming exclusively on Roping.com. The video will be the first of its kind to use never-before-seen camera angles, teaching team roping as a true team sport. Smith—with the help of guests like his NFR average-record-holding header Tanner Tomlinson—will explain how to build a run that will win from the junior rodeos to the Ariat World Series of Team Roping Finale to the Thomas & Mack.
DT Horses
Dean Tuftin’s program has produced some of the finest heel horses in history, including Brady Minor’s Rey Shines On Top. In this exclusive series, Roping.com takes you through every step of Tuftin’s program—a program centered on a circle that gives Tuftin a place to reinforce fundamentals every step of the way. In this series, you’ll get to see Tuftin work on everything from riding colts in a rope halter to an O-ring to a bridle, all shot at Tuftin’s standout facility in Scottsdale, Arizona.
