Heeling Fundamentals: Swing Angles, Right-Leg Misses & Why Position Beats Timing
New Releases
•
20m
In this in-depth roping breakdown, Ryan Motes and Brock Hanson cover one of the most frustrating issues for heelers: missing the right leg. They dig into swing angles, delivery style, positioning, and the root causes of bad throws. Whether you're struggling with consistency or just want to rope smarter, this session is full of real-world coaching, clear explanations, and practical solutions.
What you'll learn:
• Why heeling is a pull swing, not a push swing
• How swing angle and height affect right-leg misses
• The importance of patience in the turn—especially on fresh steers
• Why delivery is about dropping the bottom strand, not forcing the loop
• How to build a style that works for 90% of situations, not just perfect handles
• The difference between swing, position, and delivery—and how to master each
Plus, they talk about how to practice smarter on the dummy, what to focus on (and what doesn’t matter), and why position is more important than timing for most ropers.
