By Patricia Cooper


Everyone loves to participate in fun sports. Sports which offer cash prizes and other rewards are a darling to millions. Have you heard of a new event that is slowly and steadily taking over the world? This event has got nearly everyone talking. People are almost obsessed with it because it is a game capable of packing a whole lot of adrenaline to both the spectators and the participants as well. The lovers of the game eagerly await for the next upcoming event on the calendar. The event is known as muley team roping.

To play the game, two riders work in collaboration to try and get a rope secured in between the hind legs of a raging steer. They have to contain the out-of-control beast in the least time to win the competition. The game has gained so many fans and admirers it is now not only practiced in the Wild West, but it has been successfully exported to many foreign countries as well.

It is no joke trying to capture the huge bulls. It takes lots of training to make one a professional roper. The slightest slip could end up costing the riders their lives, if not harming them seriously. Riders are always advised to be cautious and to make sure they have the right gear to help them undertake the activity in the safest manner possible.

The authorities in charge of planning and overseeing the event insist on top safety standards for the participants and the spectators as well. They do everything possible to avoid any adverse harm and injury to the members involved. Some of the safety gears necessary are leather gloves and boots and horn wraps. Ropes should be strong enough to restrain the animals and the wraps should be durable enough to contain the high friction present as the game progresses.

Rope burns are a very common form of injury for the riders. The riders protect themselves from incurring these injuries by putting on thick, leather gloves. Also, the participants of this wild sport are expected to wear leather boots. The boots come in handy in the instances the riders fall off the horses, and get dragged by the beasts across the rough event terrain. They help them avoid foot injuries.

A strategy deployed by the gamers involves them staying on either side of the arena. The person to the right known as the heeler and the other to the left called the heeder try and position themselves such that they confuse the bull and before it realizes the rope is already in place.

The game only has one rule: Place the rope on the hind legs of the animal. There are penalties, however, when the restraint gets tangled on only one leg of it steer and when the barrier breaks. The rest is pure fun and wild excitement.

Arguably and without a doubt, the most valuable tool to get the job done is the rope. It is important the players get to pick the best line capable of holding the animal without snapping and breaking. The regulation bodies responsible for this sport put a lot of emphasizing on the types of rope they allow the Cowboys and the rodeos alike to use. They insist on the nylon and poly fiber restraints always.
