Colton Farquer from Oakdale, California competed in the California High School Rodeo Association, Thanksgiving Rodeo Fundraiser on November 28th. Colton, a student at the Camarillo Arena in Oakdale, took top honors with a first place finish in the Steer Stopping. Colton says "I've learned a lot about roping from the best (the Camarillos) and it certainly showed today". Colton roped off of a youth roping horse that was found by Jerold Camarillo. "I was mounted well, and knew I had to break perfect and throw fast" he said. "This horse was ready to stop as I pulled the slack. I had the confidence to know my dally would hold on my RopeSmart Dally Wrap. That gave me the winning edge." he added. Colton is a Freshman at Oakdale High School in Oakdale, CA and currently competes in Team Roping and Tie Down Roping events at the high school level.
