In the steer roping rodeo event, a cowboy and horse pursue a steer whose horns have been reinforced for protection. The cowboy must lasso the steer's horns and then ties the rope to his saddle. He must stop his horse promptly so  that it throws the steer to the ground. The cowboy then quickly dismounts in order to tie three of the steer's legs together. He raises both hands to indicate completion. Just like tie-down roping, the tie must hold for six seconds. Steer roping is a timed event such that the competitor with the fastest time wins. Records.
