Not Sure Which Chute You Need?
The right equipment depends on the events you run, the livestock you use, and how your arena is arranged. A team roper who only runs steers may need a different setup than a producer running both steers and calves. Calf ropers may choose a calf-only chute, while rough stock facilities must also determine the correct delivery direction.
- Steers and calves: Start with a combination roping chute.
- Tie-down and breakaway only: Choose a calf roping chute.
- Team roping return alley: Add a stripping chute and livestock leadups.
- Bulls and rough stock: Select a bucking chute and confirm the delivery direction.
- Goat roping: Choose a goat chute, leadup, and score lane designed to work together.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a combo roping chute and a calf roping chute?
A combo roping chute is designed to accommodate both steers and calves. A calf roping chute is narrower and intended specifically for calves used in tie-down and breakaway roping.
Can I add a leadup or extension to my chute?
Yes. Compatible chute extensions and leadups can help keep livestock moving toward the chute and create a more efficient practice setup. Compatibility depends on the chute model.
What is a stripping chute used for?
A stripping chute is positioned near the end of a team roping arena so ropes can be removed and cattle can be directed into the return alley after each run.
What do Left Delivery and Right Delivery mean on a bucking chute?
Delivery refers to the side of the animal that faces the arena when its head is at the hinged end of the gate. Left Delivery means the animal’s left side faces the arena. Right Delivery means the animal’s right side faces the arena.
Does Red River Arenas offer complete arena packages?
Yes. Red River Arenas offers complete team roping, calf roping, rough stock, and goat roping packages with compatible chutes, panels, gates, and arena equipment.
