Martin Black’s family has been raising livestock on the same lands in Owyhee County in Idaho for over 150 years. The desire to maintain and preserve  tradition runs deep within Martin. The Classic Rodea Style Ranch Roping DVD, the first of its kind, covering Great Basin style roping stirred up a lot of curiosity for the real deal and the questions started pouring in.

This DVD, shot on the historic Alvord Ranch with the beautiful Steen mountains in the background, addresses the questions raised by the first DVD.  Pull up a chair and join in as three of the top Great Basin ropers, John Schutte, Wade Black, and Martin, share their knowledge and humor with you in a relaxed, unrehearsed atmosphere. Martin’s library of old family photos and home movies, the knowledge and humor of three of the top Great Basin ropers along with exclusive music from Pedro Marquez makes this both educational and entertaining.

You will enjoy several hours of detailed explanation in roping, horsemanship,  stockmanship and much more. Martin’s unique insight and perspective will benefit  both the experienced ropers and beginners alike. These DVD’s can be studied  individually but as a set, they are much more comprehensive.

 Classic Rodea Style Ranch Roping
with Martin Black
$49.95 1 Hour 30 Minutes

Martin Black's family has maintained the ranching tradition on the same ranch  since 1865. His great grandfather grew up with the horsemanship and roping of  the vaqueros that brought their large herds of cattle to the Great Basin in the 1870s. For several generations, the style, principles and ethics have been handed down.

Martin would like to share some insight to the culture and traditions that he has lived and hopes to preserve and pass it on for others to enjoy.

This DVD showcases everyday life on a real working ranch set at the base of the beautiful Steens mountains in southeastern Oregon on the historic Alvord Ranch. Martin and Frank Dominguez show examples and explain the details of the stockmanship, horsemanship, team-work and dedication of traditional ranch-roping while accomplishing the job of summer branding.
