Travis Beck grabs onto a steer as it heads out of the chute during the Rockin-H Shoot Out Rodeo at Four Corners Friday. In this event, called ‘Chute Doggin’, the cowboy and steer leave the chute together with the object being for the cowboy to flip the steer on its back in the fastest time. Rodeo organizer Shawn Hall says he’s planning a series of rodeos at Four Corners this summer, with the next event planned Aug. 8. See more photos, Page 11. HEATHER A. RESZ/Frontiersman
