“We know there has been a huge push to have the breakaway ropers on the big stage, roping for equal money under the bright lights. I believe that is still the ultimate goal for everyone, but until that happens, we at Kimes Ranch wanted to create an event that would provide the excitement, the recognition, and the purse that these breakaway athletes deserve,” says Amanda Kimes, Vice President of Kimes Ranch.

Josie Conner, 2x WNFBR qualifier and Kimes Ranch endorsee, is one breakaway roper that plans to be roping in Scottsdale in November.

“Kimes Ranch took a chance on me, at 16 years old, before I even started my professional career. From day one, their vision and support for the Western industry was so clear to me. Today, they are taking what may be, one of the biggest steps in the improvement of women’s Breakaway roping. This monumental event will give Breakaway ropers a chance at a one million dollars, payout. Think about that for a second… an event, exclusively for female ropers, that will pay out over a million dollars. I am thankful to Kimes for giving us the opportunity to compete at this event and proud to be aligned with a company like this.”
