TSB author Kayla Starnes had a tough week near the end of April–her new book TEAM ROPING 101: THE COMPLETE SPORT FROM HEADER TO HEELER–was in the final stages of proofing prior to going to print, and her mare was due to foal any minute. She spent several late nights on “pregnant mare watch” while scanning the pages of her book-to-be…and we’re happy to say both were safely delivered in the end!

Playin' with Mama!
What a lovely family portrait!

Kayla’s colt is a palomino overo AQHA/APHA son of the stunning reining stallion Helluva Chex. She shared pics from his first evening of “freedom” out in the pasture with his mama—we think he is an absolute doll!

And her book, TEAM ROPING 101—a fantastic beginner’s guide endorsed by the USTRC—is available for pre-order at the TSB bookstore NOW! Check it out HERE.

Congrats on both your new “babies,” Kayla!
