The riders then enter the arena at full speed, quickly rounding each barrel in a cloverleaf pattern and then exiting where they entered.

Poles

Goat Tying
The object is to race to the end of the rodeo arena to where a goat is staked out on a 10 feet rope, catch the goat, throw it to the ground and tie three of its feet together.
Breakaway Roping
