The Score: Riding the Wave with Marty Yates

Marty Yates, a seven-time Wrangler NFR calf roping qualifier, is riding the team roping wave. He started out as a fill in for young-gun Jaxson Tucker, and now he’s picking up a heel rope for the remainder of the season.

In this episode, you’ll get to hear about how Yates was raised, his love for team roping and calf roping, the horses he’s currently riding and the horses that have helped shaped his career. We even talk about his aunt, a 18-time WPRA World Champion, JJ Hampton and what she has done for him.
