Outstanding website guys! Finally a website that offers detailed videos and excellent commentary on all aspects of team roping for ropers at all levels. I found the website a couple of days ago, and since then I have been nothing else but watching, roping, and watching some more! I finally figured out why I split the horns!
Many thanks again!
- Scott Gross
I really just wanted to say thanks. I have gotten more from this website than any roping website I’ve seen. Totalteamroping.com is worth every penny and in the long run will save you a lot of money; instead of donating, you will start putting money back in your pocket. The website is super easy to use and you can search by what you want to focus on.
I can’t thank you enough.
Fantastic job!

Hey Guys this is Bob Feist and I really like what you are doing and think this should do real good for you and the industry.
- Bob Feist
When I started to work with Bret, he focused on working with my ability. He gave me a baseline. Now, I slow down to go faster, and I could not be happier with the results. Good coaching is critical for success. TTR provides me the opportunity to reinforce the advise Bret gave me, and I can review it 24/7.

Cesar de la Cruz Joins Cactus Ropes
Cactus Ropes press release announces Cesar as their new representative. Excerpt of press release follows:
PLEASANTON, Texas—Feb. 22, 2012— Cesar de la Cruz has joined the roster of professional cowboys representing Cactus Ropes, stating “I’m honored to be part of this group, and I’m looking forward to working with the Cactus team on some exciting projects this year.” Highlights from de la Cruz’s 2011 professional season include wins at the Justin Boots Championships, Pendleton Round-Up, Omak Stampede, Rodeo Austin, Laughlin River Stampede and the Missoula Stampede. He topped off the competitive season with his sixth qualification at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo. “Cesar is an awesome addition to our team,” states Barry Berg of Cactus Ropes. “He’s a great roper and an innovative thinker. It’s been very refreshing to share ideas with him about ropes that will help our customers perform at higher levels.”
A GREAT SUCCESS AT THE WORLD SERIES ROPING FINALS WITH SUBSCRIBER RANDY BROOKS
Randy Brooks is the President of Barnes Bullets in Mona, Utah. He has been roping for many years, and jokingly refers to it as his "play toy."
An early subscriber to TTR, Randy was fortunate enough to have his name drawn from the hat for the opportunity to attend a TTR "roping school" during a filming for TotalTeamRoping.com in December, 2010. You can watch him in action on the "Heading Videos" section of the website. While TTR does not put on an actual "roping school", Randy refers to his experience with TTR literally as going to school. "I was surrounded by instructors with incredible talent", he states. "As a result of the experience, I discovered not only what I needed to work on, but the instruction was laid out in steps that I could practice easily and improve on quickly." Randy relates of his experience with world class instructors and other students that December: "It was an honor to interact with these people for two days. I was surrounded by real people, and provided with clear, competent instruction in real roping situations by the best of the best."
The 22 hour drive home was the perfect opportunity to contemplate a set of goals for himself. First and foremost, he would qualify for the World Series roping finals, have fun and win. "A concept that I have lived by and applied throughout my life is that 'Thoughts Become Things.'" He further explains, "I envisioned myself being there and actually winning at the World Series. The vision felt true to life, and I knew I could achieve it." He studied the videos on the TTR website to improve his mechanics and techniques. He viewed videos of himself and other students with a watchful eye, carefully analyzing each run. His skill and confidence soared. "I practiced with great focus and worked on one thing at a time. I watched the videos of other students to ‘silently teach myself’, always referring back to the lessons from Charles, Jake and Bret for correction and improvement."
Well, as you might guess, Randy qualified for the World Series roping finals. In the #13 roping he made the short round as the 15th high team back. Unfortunately, he made a mental mistake and was a little too conservative on his 4th run. A late start with a hard running steer gave them a no time. Most would have been pretty disappointed to work so hard and fall down on the last run, but not Randy. He was focused, determined and ready for the #12 roping. In the #12, he backed in the box with confidence on the first run and didn’t look back. The team ended up placing 7th and splitting $55,000. "I roped one steer at a time with the exception of just that one that got away from me. I focused on my horsemanship skills and ‘rode to the hole’ as TTR instructs. All the TTR instruction and my hard work paid off."
Randy states as a very satisfied TTR member "TotalTeamRoping.com works. It works for me every time I rope, no matter if it is in the practice pen or at the World Series Roping Finals. I had FUN and I WON, but it’s not just about the money. It is a big win for my confidence to catch every steer but one in a competition at this level. It feels incredible. Thanks to the TTR program and their world class instructors."
Another success story from a long time subscriber to TTR, Ross Partlow, from Boerne, Texas.
Just a few weeks ago Ross set out to qualify for the World Series Finals in Las Vegas. He and his cousin, Matt Petrus, won the #10 qualifier in Hallettsville, Texas.
Although Ross had been roping all summer, he stepped-up his practice and focus for the Finals. Ross said, "Being a competitive guy, I wanted to do my best. I didn’t just watch the TTR videos, I studied them, and practiced roping steers on a regular basis. The constant quality information improved my roping skills and my confidence". I practiced with a purpose. As Jake Barnes points out in one of the videos, I focused on getting a good start, rope the steer around the horns, provide a good handle for my heeler, and face.
On Dec. 5, 2011, TTR released a video titled, 'Pressure. How to handle pressure on "last steer"' (release date 12/5/2011 - use the search: "Pro Run" & "How to practice"). It was very timely as the World Series Finals began that same week. Ross, said, "I suggest that anyone that competes in competitive team roping view this video by Jake, Clay and Bret Beach. It made a difference for me"
The results were outstanding. Ross and Matt were the 36th team for the high call back in the short round. They made a sharp run and moved all the way to 10th place overall, earning them $20,000.
Afterword Ross said, "What stuck in my mind was 1)focus on riding in the box and the task at hand, and 2)catching and handling the steer. I was confident that I would perform, because I had put in the proper preparation time in the practice pen, and studied the TTR website".
Constant Quality Instruction™ WORKS and our subscriber's success story say it all!
From subscriber Kevin Degn:
I just wanted to drop you a note & say thanks. I have been having some trouble with my roping all summer and a few weeks ago I decided to RE- join TTR. I watched several videos on the issues I was having and put them to work this past weekend. Happy to tell you that I won 1ST & 3RD ( 2 saddles, $2000) in the roping - and was just a few points away from winning $5,000 for the high point roper of the day. I can honestly say that TTR was the difference this weekend after enduring a whole summer of "almost". Pretty good return on my investment.
From subscriber Eddie Moore:
I wanted to take a few minutes to tell you how much I enjoy your website. I've been roping for about 20 years. I've won numerous buckles and 3 saddles. I'm a # 4 Heeler and I'm always striving to be better and better. I attended Ricky Greene's Roping School a few years ago. It helped some, but your website has helped me more. I am able to see the motions at a slower pace, and watch them over and over. When I'm not roping, I'm watching the videos on your website. Several of my friends have seen an improvement in my roping and asked what I've been doing differently. I told them about your website and they have now signed up. Thanks again for the website, y'all are doing a great job!!
From subscriber Ross Partlow:
On Sunday, Oct. 16, I participated in the World Series Team Roping Qualifier in Hallettsville, Texas at the Wilbur Barber Memorial Complex. Along with my partner Matt Petrus we won the #10 roping and split $9,410.
My roping has been steadily improving the past six months as a result of having the correct fundamentals, and the mental aspect of competing and winning. I have been working with Bret Beach and studying the videos on TTR. I know what to practice, how to practice, and how to get ready to make a winning run. You have to put in the time, but with the proper instruction you will get better. Each day I watch the videos on TTR and it has had a positive accumulative effect on my roping. Just before the roping on Sunday, I practiced on the dummy a few times to loosen up and relax. When I backed into the box I felt I had the knowledge and confidence to win! I endorse TTR whole heartily."
These are real results from subscribers that have applied the knowledge and methodologies available on TTR in their roping competitions. You too can improve and start winning!
We would like to thank Kevin, Eddie, Ross and Matt for their support and wish them health, success and future winnings!
