Craig County Ranch Rodeo, Friday May 30th

 

Trailer loading!  This is our Welch State Bank team working the steer to the trailer.  One cowboy ropes it and runs it by the trailer while the other three grab the rope and steer to shove it into the trailer.  Time stops when all cowboys plus the rope are out of the trailer and the trailer door closed and latched.  Looked to us like it was a tricky door latch too!

 

Hurry up Dad, I gotta rope!

 

This is our church team "Cowboy Junction"!!  C'mon guys, get 'im in there.

 

Looks like they're gonna get it done!  The Cowboy Junction team always places in the top!

 

Things are moving fast now!  This is the Wild Cow Milking!!  One rope, three try to get hold of her long enough for one of them to get some milk in a plastic pop bottle - yes, small opening!!!!  Then they have to take the rope off and one cowboy has to run across the arena with the bottle and the rope to a chalk ring and hand the bottle to the judge for time!

We think this is the Reynolds Boot & Western Store team.
