The Finals
We had been producing roping’s for a little while and Danny thought it would be fun to create a setup that the pros work towards all year. The NFR setup in Vegas is like no other situation cowboys compete in all year. Danny created the same arena for local competitors to rope in to see what the “average joe” could do in the same situation the pros are put in. We host a variety of events over three days. We include events for lower number ropers all the way to up to the Open where there is a mix of up and coming talent, passed professionals as well as current PRCA athletes.
