The 2025 winter run is kicking into high gear with the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo starting Jan. 24. Here’s everything you need to know about the calf roping to stay in the loop during the FWSSR and keep up with results.

What is the format at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo?

There are 18 total performances at the FWSSR ProRodeo Tournament with seven brackets of eight calf ropers competing in back-to-back rounds (Performances 1-14). There is one Wild Card Round (Performance 15), two rounds of Semifinals (Performances 16-17) and an eight-team Finals (Performance 18). 

PERFORMANCES 1-14: PROGRESSIVE ROUNDS

There will be seven brackets of eight teams competing in back-to-back rounds. The top two money-earning calf ropers in each bracket (14 total) will progress to the Semifinals. The third top money-earning calf roper will advance to the Wild Card Round. The calf ropers who do not advance will be placed in a “non-qualifiers” pool. At the conclusion of Bracket 7, the top money-earning calf roper from the non-qualifiers pool will fill the eighth position in the Wild Card Round.

PERFORMANCE 15: WILD CARD ROUND

From the eight tie-down ropers in the Wild Card Round, the top two money-earners will advance to the Semifinals Round with a clean-slate format.

PERFORMANCES 16-17: SEMIFINALS ROUNDS

Tie-down ropers will each make one run in one of two performances with a clean-slate format. The top four calf ropers per performance will advance to the Finals. 

PERFORMANCE 18: THE FINALS

The top eight calf ropers will run in the Finals with a clean slate (no previous times carried forward). On that day, the fastest calf roper wins the title of 2024 Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo ProRodeo Tournament Champion.

What is the calf roping payout at the Fort Worth Stock Show & Rodeo?

The calf roping has a purse of $306,000. The calf roping payoff will mirror that of the five other PRCA-sanctioned events and two WPRA events. There is no aggregate payoff at FWSSR. Here’s how it breaks down.
