Calf Strings
White calf strings in 5/16 in, medium lay. This is the string a tie-down roper uses to tie the calf, not the rope used to make the catch.
Each string has a loop at one end. A medium lay sits between a soft string and a stiff one, giving tie-down ropers a familiar point of comparison when choosing their gear.

Application
Calf strings belong to tie-down roping and to ranch work where a calf is tied after being caught. They are used together with a catch rope, never in place of one.
How to Choose
- Compare the 5/16 in diameter with the strings you already tie with.
- Medium lay is the only lay offered, so feel is not a choice on this product.
- If you need a catch rope, look at the team ropes or ranch ropes instead.

FAQ
Is a calf string the same as a calf roping rope?
No. A calf string is the short string used to tie a calf after the catch. It is not a catch rope, and it is not a team roping, breakaway or tie-down rope.
What diameter and lay are these strings?
5/16 in, medium lay.
Do they come in other colors?
These calf strings come in white.
Does Precision sell a calf roping rope in the US?
Not at this time. The US store lists calf strings, but no rope made specifically for calf roping.
