Spencer Rose on Instagram: "I love trick roping. What I love even more than trick roping is adding style to my trick roping. Don’t get me wrong like any roper I love working on my hard tricks, but those tricks are not the tricks that get me applause from a crowd. It’s the simple ones where I add more movement in and draw the crowd in with my concentration. So I spend a lot of time working on my poise and style 💗 #trickroper #lasso #trickroping #charro #cowgirl #feminine…
