Oh my god!!! I just started roping a few months ago and have been doing great, eventhou I am not even roping off a horse yet, I just got this book, (it arrived in 4 days!) and it has helped me hone my skills and makes me aware of how I am roping "the fundamentals" so if someone asks me "how" i am roping that dummy and can tell them how do it. Before I read this book I would have just told them, I dont know, I just "do" it. Well, e-mail me, and if Jake or Clay ever reads this E-MAIL ME!!! You guys are so cool and I think ure awesome. My email address is [e-mail] or [e-mail].

Remember; Team Ropin' rules.

This review is from: Team Roping With Jake and Clay: Barnes and Cooper on How to Practice and Compete (A Western Horseman Book) (Paperback)

The book is extremely helpful for the beginner roper. However, with the title how to practice and compete, I felt there should have been more fundamentals of competition for the more experienced roper to sharpen their skills. Would reccommend for someone that is just getting started.
