Built by heelers. Tested in the dirt.

See the HeelShot Hopper in real arena light. This isn’t a sled. It’s solo timing, real movement, and repeatable reps—no partner needed.

Every detail is designed for real-world heeling. Adjustable stride. True hop. Remote control for solo work.

Want to see it run? Message us for a demo video or details. 🐂⚡

We are loving our jackets and the quality is second to none. From the stitching to the fit, M&M always delivers products that look great and hold up to the rodeo lifestyle.

And paired with an American Hat, the look comes together perfectly.

Thank you M&M Apparel and American Hat Company for keeping us looking sharp all season long! 🇺🇸🤠

The dust has settled, but the impact of the Permian Basin Rodeo is still being felt.

To our sponsors, thank you for stepping up and making it happen. Your support fuels every run, every ride, and every moment in that arena.

We don’t take it lightly, and we don’t do it alone.

And a very special thank you to VFW Post 4372 for putting on the rodeo for us. Your hard work, dedication, and support mean more than words can say.

We appreciate you more than words can say, and we’ll see you at the next one. 🔥
