Green mules must use approved bits listed in Rule 106.
Western attire: Western hat, belt, western boots, long sleeve shirt with sleeves down and fastened. Authentic suspender pants shall be worn with suspenders. Shirts must be tucked in; unless they are designed to be worn out. No bare midriffs are to show. Long pants are required.
A star run may only be implemented for team roping and/or penning or sorting.
A star run can be implemented when a contestant is drawn to make an extra (3rd) go/run with a paid contestant because there are not enough paid contestants to make another team. The star participant does not pay for their run nor do they get the AMA points from the star run. If the star team places in the event the non star participant will get full points/awards and the star participant receives 0 AMA points or awards, including cash awards.
A star run is only acceptable if there are no other paid participants to team up with. All paid participants will be teamed up before a star run can be considered.
A star participant must declare they are willing to make a star run and accept the conditions (pay and point award system for star person).
A star run must be posted on the roster as an extra or star(*) run prior to the event starting.
A star participant can not choose the team or teammate as to which they will participate; an AMA or show representative will decide how to pair up the star team; they must take into account whether the paid contestant needs a heeler or header, and they will be paired accordingly.
A paid participant can not refuse to make a run with another paid participant because they would rather have a star run with a different partner, if so they forfeit their second run.
