I’m 35, and just bought my first rope, built myself a dummy as well. Hope to one day have the opportunity to own my own horse and rope some live steers. Just starting out now your videos have been very helpful to me!! Thanks again.
I’m 29 and have been rethinking it because idk if I’m considered “too old” but this definitely helped me with the push to go for it! I just don’t know if I want to team rope or do breakaway. It’s all new to me.
@@BarrettHouser not just yet unfortunately.. I’m hoping to get one soon. I have just been roping the dummy a bunch on foot, but once I get a good ropin horse it’s on!
@@tybillings774 In my opinion that is kinda the best route to go. Get good at riding, get good at roping the dummy and then put both together! Good luck!
Ive only been on horse trail rides lasted bout a hour but ive been wanting to learn how to calf rope n ride a horse...im determined to learn more about horses n working with a lasso and so on...im 26
@@BarrettHouser what rope would u recommend for a beginner ? Theres so many ropes out there its kinda overwhelming to pick one, so i thought id ask since you rope!
@@BarrettHouser I love them the bomb is very light and snappy, and the falcon is a smalller medium rope but it feels light and it is extremely consistent and always feels the same
So how long was it from the time you first picked up a rope and roped a dummy, to the first time you roped a live steer? I've asked this questioned to a few ropers and the answer is interesting.
It is hard to try over the internet! Best thing to do is keep watching these videos and many more. Try to find some people in your area that can help you get started. I appreciate you watching the videos!
Definitely never too old...I’m 47 and just started 👍🤠
And killing it! I promise I’ll make Wednesday practice soon!

Haha that’s just personal preference. You’re not too old!
The only thing 29 is too old for is grade school. Do it! I have a friend thats 70 and is just starting!
I have always wanted to learn to team roping thanks for the movtation need some help on some clinics around the DFW area
Just look at your favorite pro and see when they have a clinic close by.
Good videos!! Totally underrated
Thank you so much! I appreciate it.
@@BarrettHouser no problem! I actually picked up team roping about 3 months ago so I’m constantly practicing and on the grind
@@tybillings774 Awesome! Do you have a good horse?

Go at it.
@@BarrettHouser what rope would u recommend for a beginner ? Theres so many ropes out there its kinda overwhelming to pick one, so i thought id ask since you rope!
Honestly I don’t think it matters. Just start swinging
Glad I saw this video I’m fresh to this, can you shoe your horses your self
I probably could if it was in a pinch, but I don’t.
@@BarrettHouser another question should I start on a colt or gelding
@@trevorgrampp6789 my opinion is start on a seasoned horse. Not a colt.
How long have you been competing? Did you qualify for this year's WS Finale?
About 5 years now. No I didn't qualify this year. We didn't go to a lot of ropings.
How do I go about starting if I have never really ridden a horse but have started roping the dummy? I’m 28
Do you have any tips on leaving the box and not coming out the saddle, im a begginer and trying to get my horsemanship part down.
You can always hold on to the saddle horn! Also, leaning forward a bit helps.
@@BarrettHouser thanks
@@wilsonlandandcattle1795 you got it!
Have you used “The Bomb” or “The Falcon” by Lonestar Ropes
Nope. Not yet. Do you like them?
@@BarrettHouser I love them the bomb is very light and snappy, and the falcon is a smalller medium rope but it feels light and it is extremely consistent and always feels the same
So how long was it from the time you first picked up a rope and roped a dummy, to the first time you roped a live steer? I've asked this questioned to a few ropers and the answer is interesting.
About 2 months
@@BarrettHouser most are telling me 2 to 6 months
There ya go!
I really want to learn to team rope but here in Florida I can’t find any one who does it or any trainers around me there’s only English riders :(
There is a decent roping scene in Florida. Just gotta find them.
Even worse I’m in New York abs tryna rope
Yeah that’s tough
Where are you in Florida?
We do a lot of roping when we go to fl
We have bought lots of good roping horses down there
Do you prefer hot shoes over cold shoes
It doesn't matter to me. It is whatever the farrier wants honestly.
What do I need to do to enter a team roping rodeo
A horse, tack, money and a partner
@@BarrettHouser thank you
Of course! Thanks for watching
Have roped in Wickenburg
Not yet. I can’t wait to though
Can you help me start
