Walk up & Replace New Rule Proposal
Rodeo committees and stock contractors will have the option for the walk up and replacement rule at their rodeos .
Any notified turnouts or releases prior to two hours before the rodeo starts are eligible for replacement.
Cardholder contestant will have replacement priority over a permit or local contestant. Contestants who already have a draw position in the Rodeo are not allowed to Turnout & replace their position.
Contestants who wish to physically walk up and desire replacement. Must check in with the Rodeo secretary no less than two hours prior to the start of the rodeo. If multiple contestants walk up to replace, a random draw will be done by the rodeo judges to determine who will fill the replacement position(s) available.
All accepted contestants for walk up and replacement will pay their entry fee at time they are approved to enter.
If rule is approved:
All events will replace in the draw position that is being filled
Or
All Barrel racing replacements will be at the end of the draw. If there are multiple replacements they will draw for ground position and placed at end of original draw.
All other events will be placed at beginning of draw and if there are multiple replacements will draw for position and placed at beginning of original draw.
If rule is approved :
A $20 walk up and replacement fee will be included and added to the pot for that event.
If rule is approved:
If a committee or stock contractor chooses to have their rodeo be a walk up and replace rodeo this approval will be posted as such on the IPRA rodeo website listing so contestants are officially notified it is approved

Change to read: Rodeo Judges, Rule #3 change the second sentence to read: At rodeos adding $1,500 or more in any event, judges shall be hired from the Senior Pro Judges list and failure to do so will result in a $100 fine per judge that is not on the Senior Pro Judges list. (Explanation; the number of rodeos adding $1,000 per event has increased and it is difficult in the busiest times of the year to assign judges at all of the rodeos. It will also put the responsibility of hiring the judges on the Rodeo Management instead of on the IPRA office.)

This is called “The Mark Out” and if the contestant fails to complete "the mark out” the judges will take that into consideration when awarding points for the Rider’s score. Judges will also take into consideration if the contestant is fouled or the animal stalls before leaving the chute, then no deductions should be made for failing to mark the animal out.
(If the above rule passes then other rules reflecting that failure to Mark the Animal Out results in a no score should be amended.)
