RC23CALFM Manual Calf Roping Chute
The Priefert name has become synonymous with today’s roping industry. Priefert Roping Chutes and accessories are the number one choice of professional ropers and top organizations, and are the Official Chute of the PRCA, the National Finals Rodeo, the Ultimate Calf Roping Championships, the USTRC, the Priefert World Series of Team Roping, the NTRL, the GSTRC, the BFI, and many more major roping organizations and events. It’s not just the pros that use Priefert. Everyone knows that it is important to “Practice like you Compete.” This has made Priefert a top choice for home practice pens as well.
With ropers keeping calves longer and the exciting new opportunities for breakaway ropers, we have updated our original calf chute to more robust model. This calf chute offers the same great functionality of our larger chutes, but is specifically designed for the cowboy or cowgirl who only ropes calves. This chute was designed and quality tested with the help of World Champion Ropers Lari Dee Guy, Jackie Crawford, Tyson Durfey, Joe Beaver, and Trevor Brazile. Priefert also offers a Fully Automatic Calf Chute which allows the roper to operate all the functions of the chute from a simple remote control.
Features
Priefert Roping Chutes are the Official Chute of the PRCA, the National Finals Rodeo, the WPRA, the WCRA, the Ultimate Calf Roping Championshiops, many more major roping organizations and events.
Priefert’s Calf Chute was designed, and quality tested with the help of World Champion Ropers Lari Dee Guy, Jackie Crawford, Tyson Durfey, Joe Beaver, and Trevor Brazile.
All Priefert roping chutes are specifically engineered to be as quiet as possible. The unique braking system used to control the front release gate is set to virtually eliminate noise prevalent with competitor chutes.
A quiet opening chute is important so that horses can be properly trained to queue off the rider’s command and not by the sound of banging head gates.
To reset the front release gate, simply push the reset lever toward the back of the chute to close the front release gate. Then, return the lever to its original forward position before releasing the next calf.
The spilt tailgate opens from the left side of the chute and operates without ropes, pulleys or knee-knocking levers.
The overall ease of use makes Priefert’s manual roping chute the number one chute of choice for ropers.
With the same basic design and functionalities of our larger chute, this chute is ideal for the roper who is only running calves.
The front release braking system also “deadens” the gate as it pops to the fully open position, with no backlash to potentially cause the calf to hesitate upon exit.
The easy fingertip touch release and spring assisted opening ensures that every roper gets the same release of the calf.
The bottom of the chute is sheeted to reduce the possibility of leg injuries and is narrow enough to discourage calves from turning around in the chute.
Priefert’s RC23CALFM may be converted to an automatic chute with the purchase of an upgrade kit.
