The Short Score: Crossfire Rule Update

It comes as no surprise that the initial episode of The Short Score on the PRCA’s new crossfire rule drew a lot of attention. To answer some questions listeners had regarding the rule, we met with Pro Official Harry Rose who has flagged the team roping at the NFR 21 times.

We also caught up with 2019 World Champion HeelerWesley Thorpto go into more detail on the rule proposal and the entire process of getting it approved. Thorp played a significant role in the rewriting and proposal of the new rule and also held a seminar last fall at his house in Texas where judges and contestants came together to work on a solution to the controversial call.
