Classic Rodea Style Ranch Roping with Martin Black

[TheRanchLife]

Isn't that called a Hoolahan? Not sure of spelling.

Great video Martin. Like you say it is a lot more work on people the way most of us do it in Montana and surrounding states. I think the real problem is that each generation is a little less horse, and it gets to the point that if you dont use it you lose it. Thanks for posting this.

@neveseven777- that's a del viento, search it on youtube or watch buck brannamans roping tapes #2 and #3

I'm a complete fool, I catch a cow a couple days ago, with naked hands and with a really bad (mountain climbing) rope... burned my fingers from the friction and pulled me throwing me on the ground and pulling me a bit more... God I feel so stupid, felt bad for the poor animal too... next time, I go with real equipment, if there needs to be a next time. :)

WOW! Makes me want to just get out there and do it. Unfortunately I haven't developed the talent those folks have. The hat camera this priceless and offers a great view of what you should be doing. I appreciate Mr. Black's ability to explain the reasoning for the techniques he instructs. It's plain to see his sincere appreciation for a good horse, skilled horsemen and a respect for livestock. Thanks for reminding us of the cowboy traditions and a way of life we should never forget.

The sons of a gun sure had a winning way with cattles..

[NeveseveN777]

Does anyone know what shot he throws at 1:17? Even better someone show post a video how to do this.

[geo102094]

hello i had a question about buying ropes. whats the difference between "scant" and "full"?

[Hudson2012]

What is the name of the song at 6:30?

Thanks, I really love it.

[rlaycock]

@Hudson2012 Whoopee Ti Yi Yo from Ian Tyson's Old Corrals and Sagebrush CD most likely. I've got just about all of them. I lose track of which comes from where.

[Peppydancer1]

What song is being sung at the beginning of this and who sings it, please. thx!

[rlaycock]

@Peppydancer1 Night Rider's Lament. Written by a rancher in Arizona named Mike Burton.  As usual the singer on Martin's site is Ian Tyson.

[MrBronctwister]

that works pretty darn slick.we use kind of the same thinghere in saskatchewan but there's still alot of people runnin around and horses tied up to the fence.i'd like to give your style a try.

[diamondlazyt]

Great video,  should make a comment about how much easier it is on the cattle and not just a party.

[toritotuti]

It would really be appreciated if my horse and I could go work with those guys!

[ranchroper1974]
