The New Standard in Roping Chutes:

Ropers everywhere are raving about the ruggedness, efficiency and ease of operation of Priefert's roping chute. Ideal for roping calves and steers, this is the Official Roping Chute of the USTRC.

The chute's spring-loaded release gate opens to 30" to meet PRCA requirements, and features a unique brake system to eliminate bounce-back. The split tailgate opens easily from either side and, with no extensions outside the frame, is safer to operate from horseback.

The Model 98 is built for long-lasting durability at your home arena or the country's biggest ropings.

The ultimate in remote operated roping chutes maximizes practice time and reduces need for additional help. The "garage door" type opener allows ropers to control entry and release of steers or calves. An optional delay feature (up to 14 seconds) eliminates cueing of horses and allows time to position horses and get ropes ready before the electro-solenoid releases the spring-loaded front gate. The front release gate is closed and the rear entry gate is closed by air-powered cylinders. The action and noise of front return and the opening and closing of the rear entry gate simulates releasing a steer and serves as an excellent method of "scoring" without releasing an animal.

Note: With failure of electricity or air, this roping chute can be manually operated
