I think a lot of guys, like myself, I get caught a lot trying to ride too much, especially on this horse, where I&#8217;m not ready to rope when it&#8217;s time to rope.<\/p>\n<p>So I think there&#8217;s a happy medium in riding your horse across the line. But getting your rope up and having everything flat and ahead of your horse, where when it&#8217;s time to rope, you&#8217;re ready to throw. And on this horse, that&#8217;s one thing that&#8217;s really, really helped me out. Because I&#8217;ve learned that a lot in the last couple years, that he runs so hard that I have to be ready to rope.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yeah.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And when you&#8217;re on a horse that doesn&#8217;t do that, it&#8217;s not as big of a deal because you don&#8217;t ever feel that. I mean, you just kind of get up over him and can kind of reach, and it&#8217;s easier to reach. On a horse that runs like this, you have to get your rope going and be ahead of your horse because they&#8217;re running. Their stride&#8217;s three strides to the steers one, it seems like on a horse like this.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Right.<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s talk about the plenty of rope. Because I think that&#8217;s something that, like you just said, if a horse doesn&#8217;t have as much run, your tip would be higher because the steers are going to be a little bit further away. When I watch you pick your rope up, I would say it&#8217;s pretty steep. Right there, in that swing right there. You can&#8217;t throw from right there, right?<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes, sir.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So if you look where your tip is pointed, let&#8217;s get a&#8230; if you want to try a little reference line, but I would say it&#8217;s probably&#8230; Maybe draw an arrow from where you think your point of your rope side. I think, it&#8217;s to the shoulders almost, right? I don&#8217;t know, I&#8217;m kind of asking for me as well.<\/p>\n<p>Can we talk about that though? That tip is pretty steep, if it&#8217;s pointed to his horns, right there, or his back, it&#8217;s hard to reach.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yes.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you were to take him in that shot, it&#8217;s probably not going to work where you have to go that another swing, and then that&#8217;s the spot from where that one coil is. And that&#8217;s basically where your rope starts every time on this horse. It&#8217;s almost a predetermined shot because your horse is going to work like that, right?<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. If you watch, the whole time on that run those angles will never, ever change. And that&#8217;s about what I try to do, is I try to get up ahead of my horse and get my tip down because he&#8217;s going so hard. And I know that if my tip&#8217;s too high up, then&#8230; Sorry.<\/p>\n<p>So, right here. So if my tip is up, up here, flat and I don&#8217;t get it down, well then, I got to change it to there. Sorry, I&#8217;m having&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>No, that&#8217;s good.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I got to change it to there in one swing by the time I got to throw.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yep. And if you come out of that swing, right there, and throw with your horse still running, that&#8217;s that loop that goes right by the right horn.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yep, or behind it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yep. It doesn&#8217;t&#8230; it goes over their head, by the right horn, it misses completely. And that&#8217;s really all the&#8230; It&#8217;s not a bad loop, it&#8217;s just that tip of that rope is not in the right spot.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>So, and I think that&#8217;s one thing for a lot of World Series guys that really have a run. If you&#8217;ve got a good head horse and you want to figure it out, that&#8217;s a great spot to pick your rope up to and then ride your horse to that spot. And don&#8217;t fight your tip from the beginning, just get your rope right where you want to throw it from.<\/p>\n<p>Now, it can limit you if your horse doesn&#8217;t run or you get a steer that&#8217;s a little bit tough. And that&#8217;s where rope talent and skill might have to come into play a little bit. But when you have a horse this good and you know the run is really comfortable, I think that is the deal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yeah. This horse makes heading where you don&#8217;t have to reach, you don&#8217;t have to be aggressive, or do different, you just got to get through the course. And if you do a good job that day, you should win the roping because he&#8217;s going to make it pretty&#8230; If I score the way I should score and get through the roping, and rope smart and rope sharp, there&#8217;s no reason I don&#8217;t win the first.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The biggest things I&#8217;ve had on this horse is beating myself. Me and Sherwood, last year was in at the BFI and we had seven seconds to go to high callback. And I get a great start, should have been no longer than 6.5, and I run in there and didn&#8217;t have my rope going and threw right behind the horns.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pace Freed:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Right.<\/p>\n<p><strong>JR Dees:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>And because I wasn&#8217;t ahead of my horse, wasn&#8217;t sharp, wasn&#8217;t aggressive, and that&#8217;s what this horse will do. I mean, you got to be ready to rope. I miss more because I&#8217;m not ready to rope, than I miss because I&#8217;m being too aggressive or anything else.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Start your free trial today and watch the full episode here &gt;&gt;&gt; JR Dees: I&#8217;ve tried to make it where it&#8217;s more simplified for me, where it&#8217;s real open ahead of my horse to where I can throw at any time.
