The Roping Show
with Tyler Magnus

The Roping Show with Tyler Magnus, airing weekly on RFD- TV, is under new ownership. Tyler and Leah Magnus recently acquired The Roping Show from its creators Tim and Jane O’Neil. Both Tyler and Leah agree, “This is an exciting opportunity for both us and the sport of team roping. We hope to build on the O’Neil’s idea of a program dedicated to team roping by designing a show that will promote, educate and provide entertainment on the sport of team roping to the millions of team ropers, fans, and horse enthusiasts.”

The Roping Show with Tyler Magnus is a 30 minute program airing weekly on RFD-TV. The show will highlight action from various team roping events around the United States, including interviews with today’s top professional ropers, upcoming amateurs and various experts in the equine industry. Each episode will include an instructional segment called “Tyler’s Tips with Tyler Magnus” from premier horseman, instructor, and professional team roper Tyler Magnus.

The primary goal of The Roping Show is to provide an entertaining mix of both professional and amateur roping action, proven roping methods combined with horsemanship skills for roping enthusiasts at every level.

Through the years of conducting countless instructional schools, training horses and competing at team ropings highest level, Tyler has always searched for a way to share this information on a broader level. The Roping Show will provide Tyler with the unique opportunity to share his extensive knowledge and experience with the hope of benefiting others in the roping and equine industry.
