Barrel Racing ProducerTM
Barrel Racing has become a key focus for Rodeo Producer. With our specialized software, Barrel Racing Producer, our development team has incorporated a range of barrel racing-specific features into our system. These include entries based on the horse and rider combination, up to 8 D divisions, customizable time splits, payouts, results calculations, and carryover (or rollover) scores from one event to the next. Each event’s draw format, divisions, and splits can be configured individually to meet your needs.
Core Features
Additional core features include support for multiple age groups and divisions, often split by gender, as well as the inclusion of events beyond standard barrel racing, such as pole bending. The system also tracks season standings and manages memberships. Rules and payout splits can be customized by division and event, offering flexibility to suit your needs.
Each barrel racing show can have its own unique settings, but since many future competitions are similar to past ones, our "Copy Show" feature has become a popular time-saver.
Carryovers
At the competition level, you can choose your Carryover options, with three settings available: No Carryover, Carryover to Open, or Carryover from Open. When enabled, entrants can select (and pay for) the Carryover option while entering their events.
Sidepots
Your barrel racing show or jackpot can include Sidepots. Simply set up the Sidepots in the Event Settings and check the box to include them in the Show Entry. Once the entrant completes their regular event, Sidepot scores are automatically populated, and a single click calculates the payouts.
Horse & Rider Entries
Most, but not all, barrel racing organizations track entries by the horse and rider combination. Some organizations allow multiple entries within the same event, while others require that each entry by the same rider be on a separate horse. Various option switches in the event settings accommodate these different organization and event rules.
The D Settings
Setting the D's for each event in the show allows you to define the number of D's, the time splits for each D, and the net purse allocated to each D—all from one convenient screen. This is also where you configure the event’s draw format, such as 2 Go, 1 Go, 2 Go Plus Average, or 2 Go Low Time, among others. Since each event can be customized, you can have a 2 Go Open 4D event with 0.7-second time splits, paying a larger proportion to the higher D's, and a single Go Junior 3D event with 1.0-second time splits, dividing the purse evenly across the D's. Barrel Racing Producer handles an unlimited variety of combinations.
Memberships
Barrel Racing Producer allows for unlimited membership types and divisions, whether you have Open, Junior, Youth, Novice, or any other categories. You can easily set up each membership type, along with registration fees. If you offer local competitor or permit memberships, simply configure them with the number of shows allowed.
The software includes complete membership database management, enabling admins to update organization settings while ensuring that members always have access to manage their personal information.
Online Payment
Barrel Racing Producer enables online payments at the time of entry. If your organization allows members to pay with cash, that option can also be managed within the software.
By accepting online payments, your organization avoids handling cash and manual processing, making entries and payments more efficient and convenient for both you and your members. With our integrated payment system, you have full control over your account and can decide when to transfer funds to your bank.
Advance Online Entry
Save time, effort, and stress by offering your members online registration and entry. The software allows users to register for your organization and easily enter your shows, selecting their events and specifying their horse(s) for each event.
In many barrel racing organizations, members are used to showing up and paying cash at the gate, often leading to long lines, confusion, and a rush for admins to process entries and create event draws. This can result in missed entries, communication errors, and lost revenue. With Barrel Racing Producer, you can accept entries and payments well in advance of the show. Generate a draw that's visible online to all participants, and easily add in entries as they arrive at the gate. Advanced entries will know their spot in the draw, reducing stress and allowing them to approach their event runs with confidence. They can even view their live times on the member results page. Our goal is to help you eliminate the "panic at the gate."
Fees Setup
Set it and forget it—almost. How you charge your fees is based on your rulebook and standard operating procedures. Barrel Racing Producer offers customizable settings for membership fees, event entry fees, and admin fees.
Admin fees per event or per entrant? No problem—just toggle the switch, and Barrel Racing Producer will automatically calculate the charges during show entry.
Online Updates During Events
Your schedule is busy, and so is that of your competitors. With multiple events and the need to switch horses, staying on top of the action is crucial. Barrel Racing Producer helps your competitors stay informed and on time.
The Results page in the Member view updates regularly, making each score submission live and available with every update. Competitors can view the draw order and track the number of runs remaining until it’s their turn at the gate. After their event run, their time/score will be immediately available for review.
Payout Calculations
Just as event entry fees vary from one barrel racing organization to another, so can payout splits, percentages, tiers, and event-specific payouts. Some organizations follow the NBHA payout tables, while others have their own custom guidelines. Whether you set payouts by the number of riders or by the net purse value, Barrel Racing Producer has you covered. You can configure multiple payout structures, tailored to competition type, event type, or combinations of both.
Doing it for You
Show day can be hectic with events, times, and scores coming in fast. With Barrel Racing Producer, once you enter the times, the results—along with winnings and points—are automatically calculated on the Admin side. You control when to mark the results as official, allowing them to be viewed on the Member side.
No need to rely on spreadsheets or manually re-enter data for members, winnings, and points—Barrel Racing Producer does it all for you automatically. The Standings report updates in real-time, showing current standings by event for all Shows marked as official. Need custom standings or All Around reports? We’ve got you covered!
Fans can Enjoy the Updates
Whether you're in the grandstand or watching from the comfort of your living room, following the show is now more engaging. Fans can track the action in real-time with live scoring updates, automatically refreshed as each event progresses. There's no need to wait until the end of the show—stay up-to-date throughout the competition. Once the Admin marks the Show as Official, standings are instantly updated for everyone to see.
