Joe’s a master at the art of being ready, roping or riding, it’s the when that builds a kinship.
I’ve enjoyed following his work, it’s very consistent and smooth, same as his roping, certainly why a horse can learn and get along, when why and always thinking the best for the horse, Joe’s a treasure

Joe is probably one of my favorite guys to learn from. He has an easy way of explaining things that really seem to sink in. I’m riding a horse that has had some really bad experiences. The spurs were put to him and he was put to work dragging steers and doctoring cattle. It’s been quite the feat trying to rope off him now. Whether it was Ray or Tom -maybe Ray- saying do half as much I don’t recall. It’s easy to think we’re doing half as much or even half of that when we really aren’t. Watching Joe work off his horse made me realize I was doing WAY too much. It’s really helped me along with my horse maybe one day he’ll be okay with roping a cow again. As for the roping instruction Joe touches on some real important things that I don’t think get covered enough. I’ve had some good ropers teach me but they don’t break down the swing quite like Joe does. He really goes into detail on every aspect of the swing and delivery. Even if you have roped before you can definitely get a lot out of this DVD. This is a great for anyone inexperienced and experienced.
