At an earlier reception at the American Quarter Horse Hall of Fame and Museum, Tom said, A remudas the backbone of the working end of the ranch.
Our work demands versatility in our horses. We cant change horses every time we need to do something.
Only one, the American Quarter Horse, has what it takes to be a member of our remuda.

![]() This year marked the inaugural WRCA Youth Co Horse Championship, with divisions for 13-17 and 12 and under. The competitors must complete a reining pattern, then box a cow, turn it on the fence at least once each direction and then either circle the cow or rope it. Custom buckles will be given to first place in each division. Alward Bits & Spurs and Dutton Rope Designs will provide prizes to second and third places. ![]() The T Cross Ranch and Norris Cattle Co. team took a novel approach to stopping their cow in the wild cow milking. Announcer Hadley Barrett called it a combination of wild cow milking and professional wrestling.

trotting in to the famous Budweiser jingle.

The WRCA uses Ranch Rodeo to bring attention to our cause and to generate
money for our Foundation. We sanction the finest Ranch Rodeos across North
America to bring the top Ranch Teams to the World Championship Ranch Rodeo
held in Amarillo Texas the second weekend in November. Help in Times of
Crisis We provide funds for Working Ranch Cowboys and their families in
times of need. Our support is confidential and requests generally come from
neighbors, family and friends. The Working Ranch Cowboys Foundation has been
helping people for 14 years.
Scholarships The WRCF provides school funding support for Working Ranch
Cowboys and their children. We currently have 32 Students in our program.
The Foundation grows every year as does the number of Students we can
support. |
