If there are less than 8 qualified scores in the Bull Riding, the contestants who had the longest recorded disqualification time on the judges sheets will advance. The top 4 from the Semifinals will advance to Chute Out Round also held during the second performance after the completion of the top 8 Semifinals. If there are less than 4 qualified scores or times in an event in the Semifinals, the contestant with the highest score or fastest time from the long go-round will advance. If ties in the Semifinals result in more than 4 to advance to the Chute Out Round, the contestant with the highest score or fastest time in the long go-round will advance. If still tied, a random draw will determine who advances.

The Chute Out Round on March 7 will pay $100,000 for 1st place, $25,000 for 2nd place, $10,000 for 3rd place, and $5,000 for 4th place (these amounts are paid per man in the Team Roping). Only 50% of the $100,000 allotted for first place will count towards PRCA World Standings. The amounts allotted for second, third, and fourth place will count in their entirety towards PRCA World Standings.

In other words, the heeler may rope the steer in the switch, but not before. Any heel loop delivered before the switch is considered a crossfire and is illegal. In the instance that a steer sets up, at no fault of the roper, the heel loop can be thrown at any time once the header has control of the steer. All other competition rules will be in accordance with the PRCA Rule Book. TD - There will be a disqualification for a jerk down as long as all criteria in compliance with the jerk down policy. TIMED EVENTS - If a timed event animal escapes or a re-run is awarded for any other reason, the extra will be used. All timed events will be timed and recorded in hundredths of a second.
