292. Once Committed to the Cattle

The team is completely responsible for their animals.

  1. It is the teams’ responsibility before working the cattle to pull up and call for a judge’s decision if, in their opinion, there is an injured or unusable animal in their numbered or colored cattle.
  2. Once the cattle are worked, no excuses are accepted.
  3. If an animal leaves the arena, either over or through the fence, the team can either be disqualified for unnecessary roughness, or can be given a rerun, depending on the judge’s decision.
  4. If a rerun is given, it must be given at the end of the total go-round.
