Git-Down-Rope- the Rage of the Sage


In keeping with the traditional Vaquero style- the Get-Down-Rope is becoming popular with both the casual riders, following the vaquero style, and the old west working cowboy.


The traditional cowboys used the “git” down rope to keep there horse standing still while they “git” down to shut the gate, pick up something or have some “doughgods” ( old west cowboy word for biscuits) by the campfire.


Today the, get-down-rope is used in the same way, especially in training young horses to stand still.


The Git-Down-Rope is used along with your Bosal and hackamore set up. The Bosal is favored by Western Horsemen, especially those following the Traditional Vaquero Style.


The Git-Down-Rope is used in place of a halter and is easy to use.
