The Caprock Roundup is an annual July Celebration held in Claude, Texas. The events include Parade and activities with vendors on the courthouse square, a WRCA Youth Ranch Rodeo, Mutton Bustin', and Chicken Chase. My first visit was in 2023 but I documented only the parade and youth rodeo. I returned in 2024 and tried to document all the events I possibly could. I am publishing those videos now.

I found out about the annual Spicer Gripp Memorial Roping in Hereford, Texas from a viewer who said it was a high-quality competition with a mixture of invitational and open events for amateurs and professionals alike. That was a great suggestion and I am providing a few samples here of the action in the arena and on the grounds during the several days of competition held on the first weekend in August.

I documented as much as I could of The 1836 Chuckwagon Races 2022 held on the Diamond B Ranch near Neches, Texas. It was the tenth year of celebrating Texas's revolutionary history with workshops, demonstrations, trail rides, mounted games, mounted shooting, open pasture roping, bronc riding, barrel racing, horse racing, and yes, several classes of chuckwagon races.

Since 1888, Canadian, visitors and locals have kicked their July Fourth weekend off right with the "Best Fourth of July Parade in Texas." The town hosts a watermelon feed, a Fourth of July parade, and an annual turtle race. Throughout the weekend, the oldest public rodeo in the world kicks off. Stay through the evening for live music, dining and shopping, and the best little fireworks show in Texas. (Canadian Chamber Of Commerce)
Celebration events during 2024 included three pro rodeos, a parade, turtle racing, chicken poop bingo, and water polo.

2022 was the first year to document the West Texas Ranch Rodeo, a qualifying rodeo sanctioned by the Working Ranch Cowboys Association (WRCA), and held in the Will Rogers Range Riders Arena in Amarillo, Texas. The top ranch team in these rodeos will compete in the annual WRCA World Championship Ranch Rodeo.
I am just starting publishing videos of the rodeo events available every Friday on Dusty Reins Stories and American Heartlands Channel.
The first event was Ranch Bronc Riding and YouTube censored the original documentary but you can watch the original uncensored version on Rumble or embedded below.
