Love my New Wrap!

I love your product! This is the greatest thing I have ever used. I had to reach on a really hard running steer, and to slide a little rope to keep the steer up, and it worked awesome. I had no black in my rope at all. I went home and cut the rest of the rubber off my other saddle and wrapped the rest of them. I wanted to wait to make sure I liked it first. Thanks again for a great product!

Header Jeff Baker wins big with his Pro Dally Wraps

Jeff Baker of San Antonio Tx, has won two saddles and several thousand in cash with his Pro Black Pro Dally Wrap. Jeff is now using the Bolt Head Wrap, and Loves it! He says it allows his rope to sink deep into the wrap and take some shock out of the hit.

Congrats Jeff,

From Left to right the contestants using the prodally wrap were : Johnna McCarthy (Bolt yellow) Jacob Frederick on fence (Pro Black ) Micha Frederick (Pro Black) Walker Hemphill Buckle winner (Pro Black) Hector Garcia on fence(Pro Black) Corban Hemphill (Bolt Red).

he doesn't like to try new stuff

Quote from emai:

"Actually I was at a tack store on Saturday that had them there so I just picked it up while I was there. I took it home and gave it to my husband (he doesn't like to try new stuff) and after he got it put on he said "when this wears out don't buy another one because I know I'm not going to like it, I will just stick with what I know works". He went and roped Saturday night and after a few runs he said "I'll take back what I said earlier this thing works great". There were several people at the practice pen that asked about it and I gave them your website info.

Great job Cole!

RopeSmart

Hello John,
I figured I would report back since using my new Bolt wrap. I put it on Friday before an Open roping we had up here. The wrap felt great. It had enough grab but yet still felt like there was some control to let some rope slide if needed. I used it that day in the jackpot and roped great. My partner broke out in the 2nd high call spot but we still ended up 3rd after the dust settled. I used it that night at the Cochrane pro rodeo and won 3rd with a 6.2 and then yesterday we won another pro rodeo at Benalto with a 5.3. Nice buckles and everything. It sure got a lot of looks and questions over the weekend. They'll look good at the Canadian Finals Rodeo in November!
Todd Gallais #8 Heeler/Canada

John,
I was putting some figures together on how much it cost me for regular dally wrap, and I would spend 26 dollars on dally wrap a month and if you do that time 6 months it comes to $156.00. So after six months heading with the pro wrap I am still using the first one I purchased. The pro wrap shows to be worth the money.

Thanks and God Bless
Ryan Benge

Thanks Ryan for your email.
It is so often people ask me if its worth the investment, and there so many ways to justify it. Saving on rubber itself like this example. Lost entry fees due to failing rubber, lost time looking for rubber, on and on. Rope Life is huge, 30% of a 40.00 rope is 12.00 so every 4 ropes basically pays for a Pro Dally Wrap. Just think how long it takes you to use up 4 ropes???
RopeSmart

Rope Life Pays for Wraps

Hey John,

Just wanted to let you know, I just threw two heel ropes out this past weekend because they were worn out!,, not burned up at all, but broken down where the loop comes tight on the feet. I have never had a heel rope last this long ever. I figured that in the purchase of two ropes I saved enough to pay for my Dally Wraps. The life on my ropes has doubled. Thanks for great wraps!

Matt Liston #8 Heeler Utah

Roper Wins 10K and Ties for Truck

A Texas roper reports he has won 10k, and tied for the truck, but lost it in a rope off. He loves his new wrap and has ordered more for his other saddles.

RopeSmart Staff

saddle, 2 buckles, vest, 3 average wins

I love my new wrap, I tie on sometimes and dally sometimes. Both work really well. I have won a series roping, saddle, 2 buckles, a vest, and over 4k at a USTRC event, just the past month. Thanks!

Roy G. Tx

5k the first two months

I want to thank you for a great product. I saw some people using it at a roping and decided to give it a try. I have won almost 5k since putting it on. And I won over 3k with half a wrap after missing my dally. I would have never kept my rope before. Thanks

Ed S. San Antonio Tx,

Safe but sound

I really like the feel on the rope. I used to use old intertube strips. Then Smith Brothers horn wrap loops. I like how this one grips and holds but it doesn’t feel too sticky like I can’t dump a dally in an emergency. Safe, but sound.

Colton F. Oakdale CA

I really like my new wrap

Just wanted to say thanks and let you know I really like my new wrap. I have not got my rope under my rubber once! I love the way my horn looks, and everyone is asking me about it. I dont know alot about it really but, I would say my roping is speaking for it. I have done really well and it gives me a confidence in my dally that I have never had. I have not slid any rope and it is really nice to undally and not have my rope stuck. My partner says he can tell the difference while heeling behind me too. He was getting high quite a bit, because i would slide rope and the steer would get out of time and hang in the corner. Thanks and I wish I would have ordered 3 like you said.

Kevin S. OK

how many bands does it take to pay for a Dally Wrap?

I just wanted to thank you for a great product. As a mid numbered header I don't always get the best horse position and it seems like with the bands, every time something was not just right I was breaking 1 or 2. I held off buying a Pro Dally until I did the math. I have a friend that has had one now for 3 months and it is in great shape still. We rope 2 times a week and jackpot on the weekends, so he has headed a bunch of steers already. I figured I go through a bag of bands every week or two. So basically I was spending enough to buy a pro dally wrap every other month. I just thought the price was high until I really did the math. So not only is your wrap going to save me money, my ropes are lasting longer too. Thanks for a great product.

Slow Learner lol , Plano Tx

I love my new wrap!

I am so glad you guys came out with this. I have not once got my rope under the rubber, and I have roped over 100 steers already. I was used to running rope on over 25% of my steers, and now, unless it is a super hard hit, I don't run rope hardly at all. It really surprised me how grabby it was. I have to admit half of me thought this wont work. I have had so many people come up to me and ask if I like it, and I always tell them about it. You should be seeing other orders from Kansas soon. For what I have invested in everything else, this seems like such a small investment, especially compared to what my entry fees are. And I can tell you there were not many days that we rope, that I would not loose my rope a time or two due to running. So when I think of fewer lost ropes and what that means to entry fees out the window, that alone justifies keeping one on my saddle and a spare on hand at all times.

Thanks for a great product! #6 Heeler KS

USTRC Katy

We are not just sure of all monies won yet at the Katy Tx, USTRC event, however we were present to watch a total of 6 ropers compete with the Pro Dally Wrap in the short go of the #9 roping.

Took it off and put it on the other guys saddle

Mr. John,
Everything has been going pretty good, talking to people about the product, because everyone that looks at it has to know, "does it really work". There was a gentleman at a roping in Hebbronville that I won that just refused to believe what I told him, so I uncinched and took the wrap off my saddle and onto his it went. Needless to say he was greatly impressed with the whole package, I thought it was funny myself. You been going any? Sorry the email is so late, just got done pulling back on some feet.

Shawn Davis

Sure is easier to Dally

John,
The wrap that we bought from you at Glen Rose for my son is amazing. He has roped a lot of cows since we were at Glen Rose and the dally wrap is showing no signs of wear that we can tell. He has roped some fresh steers and when you get to the horn your rope doesn't run which sure makes it easier on ropes. We are going to go ahead and order 4 more of the wraps today. If you are still looking for some endorsees we would be interested we really like the product.

Tommy D. Shoemaker

Another Win, and going on 2 months same wrap

Heeler Roy Garcia, chalks up another first place win with his now two month old Pro Dally.

Instant Grab

Couple of weeks ago we ordered two wraps and a week later 2 more. This weekend Joel Bach came by and picked up 2 horses he and Allen had left at our house..Joel saw the wraps and offered to show me how to put them on. He wrapped 3 saddles for us. Had a little trouble with the first wrap we ordered, but the other 2 went on real smooth.
Great young roper from a great family..PS --heeled some with the wrap ---great -no slip -no rubber on my rope --just instant grab --thanks Bob H.

A month old and still looks new.

John,
I had several inquires about my ProDally Wrap at the local roping this weekend. All I've been telling them is they can order off the internet. I'm notsure what to say about the life exspectancy, I've had mine about a month andit still looks new. I'm ordering 2 more off the web site today.

ThanksCharlie

Over 200 hundred steers and going

Since I put my new Pro Dally on my head saddle, I have roped several hundred steers. Really grabs good, and I am using a rope now that I have roped over 50 head on. That kind of rope life is amazing to me.

Great job guys and look forward to seeing you in the winning circle of users all year!!! Payout $4400.00

Out with Classic in with Pro Dally

The best thing I like is less black rubber on your rope. You still get alittle discoloration but not like the old inter tube rubber. I have been using the "Classic" pre cut rubber. The strips tend to roll and twist and Iwas always breaking the rubber at the base of the horn. My rope would sometimes get caught under the rubber at the base of the horn, this has never happened since switching to ProDally. The ProDally tends to grip your rope better causing your rope to run less. I feel this would benefit the team roping industry.

ThanksCharlie Mathis

Love my Pro Dally

I received my pro dally wrap right before I went to Glenrose, TX, being a skeptic about certain things such as this I almost did not use the wrap since I did not get to practice with it. I am glad though that I did decided to go ahead and put it on my saddle for that roping. Any seasoned roper can tell you that in today's roping arenas that it is the little things anymore that make the difference in winning and losing. I mean it used to be that show up and just get them all down and you would win it, but now and speaking from experience, you can show up rope all four fast and clean and not see the pay window. This pro dally wrap has given me an insight into stopping cattle faster without sliding rope, thus helping my header face faster and mainly getting a quicker flag. The wrap is durable and did not plug my new ropes full of rubber so I believe that the longevity of my ropes will more than likely double. At the chance of sounding repetitive, even coming home from the long weekend in the practice pen I am so impressed with the stopping power I have now with the new pro dally wrap. Roping feet, I have never used anything like this and I have tried many things as they come on the market, one of my most adventurous trips is with the piece of rubber that you had to take four pry bars and a jack hammer to try to get on, " not mentioning any names ". This wrap is easy and convenient to put on, took me about three minutes once the bundles of rubber bands were off my saddle. I look forward to buying more for my wife and my dad due to the practical functionality of the product.

Thanks a Million for the new edge,
Shawn Davis

South Dakota Roper Wins 1k first time out.

Lynn Williams #7 Heeler, of South Dakota, wins 1k the first time out competing with the Pro Dally Wrap.

Skeptic Busted

While showing how to wrap a saddle horn this past weekend, a roper popped off about how inner tubes are free. After explaining how not only the quality of rubber is far superior, lasts longer, and does not destroy brand new $38.00 ropes, he still said free is better. This particular roper, who happened to have his horse tied next to mine, reached into his rope bag a few minutes later and pulled out a bag of bands he had bought, and began wrapping his horn with "fresh" rubber. Then he proceeded directly to the head box to rope. He got out perfect on his steer, dropped a coil and stuck it on him. He then got his dally, then we all heard a load pop, and saw his rope going down the pen with the steer. He began pulling all the broken bands of rubber off his horn and threw them in the air. His wrap basically exploded. Not only were his bands not free, neither was the $50.00 entry fee on the run. Lesson, do not forget how much we invest in our tack, horses and entry fees. Don't throw your money away one chunk of rubber at a time. Try the Pro Dally from RopeSmart, and dally with no regrets.

First time Wrap user made a believer for life.

Jaime Macias, Owner of CrossRoads Buckles and EJ cattle company, disappointed in his saddle horn rubber, decided to change to the Pro Dally in the middle of a roping. He proceeded to double his next 6 steers and capture an average placing. Amazed at how well the wrap grabbed and what little wear was on his rope, he was sold!! He will not only be using it from now on, he will be putting it on all the saddles they award at the roping series they hold.

Buckle, Cash, and Finals qualification for AR roper.
