• FORMAT NOVICE:  12 entries or less, the top 4 will advance to the short go. If more than 12 entries contestants will get one head.

• TURN OUT/ALTERNATE PROCEDURE:  Contestants who have originally entered and were eligible at time of entry but were drawn out will be added to an alternate list. These contestants will be notified of any turn outs or doctor releases and be given the option of re-entry up to the end of workday first day of the rodeo. After the end of the workday of the first day of the rodeo it will flip to a walk-up replacements list. Contestants on the replacement list will then be given the option to be put into that open spot 90 minutes before the rodeo if they give notice to the secretary’s office at the rodeo. If stock has already been drawn in the rough stock, they will draw stock from a pool of animals consisting of all turned out stock for that performance and all re-ride stock for that performance.  

• Walk Up Replacements: Contestants who have originally entered and were eligible at time of entry but were drawn out may, in person, check with the rodeo secretary no later than 1 hour prior to the performance to confirm their availability and desire to be an alternate. If selected, by random draw of all walk ups available, an alternate will assume the competition position of the contestant that he is replacing, in the rough stock they will draw stock from a pool of animals consisting of all turned out stock for that performance.

• Re-entries: Re-entries will be accepted where the actual entries accepted during the original entry period were less than the limit. Entries be re-opened sometime prior to the riding event stock draw. Contestants that enter during the re-entry period will be placed in the remaining available positions (available positions will be defined by the stock contractor and/or committee based on the number of contestants that entered during the re-entry period). All re-entries will be accepted to fill the performances not to exceed the original limit defined in the ground rules (based on “money won” qualifications).

* If a contestant notifies a turn-out, DR or visible release and is replaced by an alternate, the alternate contestant will be responsible for the entry fees. If the contestant that notified the turnout or visible release is not replaced by an alternate, they will be responsible for the entry fee. If a contestant properly doctor releases they will not be responsible for entry fees.
