In the bareback and saddle bronc events, to qualify for a marking, the rider must have the rowels of the spurs touching the horse above the break of the shoulders when the horses front feet hit the ground on this initial move out of the chute in the case of a stalling horse, the mark out rule will be waived at the discretion of the judge.
Rule reads:
The contestant must have both spur rowels touching the animal, one on each side of the animal, anywhere above the break of the shoulders when the animal’s front feet touch the arena floor the first time out of the bucking chute. Failure to do so will result in a five ( 5 ) point deduction per side that mark out is missed. Either judge will have the option to waive the mark out rule if the contestant is fouled or the animal stalls.
Take out:
Failure to do so will result in a five ( 5 ) point deduction per side that mark out is missed.
Replace with:
Failure to do so will receive a NO score.
