Cowboy Roping and Rope Tricks

Exhibition rope-spinning is an American sport with strong Mexican roots that was born amidst the sights, sounds, smells, and excitement of the great American West. One of the best of the old-time champion rope spinners was Chester Byers. When he wrote this book, he had 20 years experience spinning his rope into rolls, figure 8’s, and zig-zags at stampedes, rodeos, roundups, and frontier days all over the country. He has a way with words too and if you’ll follow his directions, you’ll soon find yourself managing the rope like a pro.

Whether you’re a seasoned trick roper, buckaroo wanting to gain skill, or just a newby, this is a great book full of illustrations and explanations to perfect your craft.
