1. From the time riders enter the arena until they leave, all horses and cattle are expected to be treated like they are under the ownership of the judge, who is taking the place of the "Cow Boss".  Riders should conduct themselves as though they are trying out for a job on his crew.

​

2. All decisions by the judge are final and not to be contested by anyone.

​

3. Riders are encouraged to dress themselves in typical cowboy/buckaroo fashion such as they have.  Extra points will not be given for this, however, extra points WILL be given for:

​

- Choosing to show your horse smoothly ever getting the job done.

- Showing respect for the livestock and facilities, such as: choosing to excuse yourself in order to save the cattle if they should become stressed enough that they begin to pose a threat to their own physical or emotional selves.

​

Remember!  This is a showcase, designed to give everyone present exposure to the skills required to work smoothly with a crew on an outfit.  Represent yourself, your horse and your crew well!
