True Della. I'm saying for the weights..... Like obviously you're not going to jerk down little babies on the cow still. I'm saying like the 300+ pounders that can take the jerk--those you make an exception. The exception is posted at the secretaries office so everyone knows.
I honistly dont think anything needs jerked down in a rodeo setting. Sometimes what it takes to win is not what's best for the stock and horse. Ill even go further to say they shouldent chuck and duck in the team roping and exclusively stretch the calves.
My grandpa always sais "you can tell the character of a man by how he handles his slack"
To me that about sums this up, but you see with every timed event some hold the stick above fast time and some hold fast times above everything.
Like i said above and nobody has explained my opinion is on harsh jerkdows as from what i understand that's the issue they are trying to remove. And i am pefrectly fine with that.
And honistly these pros that are freaking out, from a "city" point of view are having a big Nancy fit they cant abuse cute baby calves anymore. Thats a pretty #$/&ty image to over come now .......
