Find out how to watch the BFI breakaway roping, plus the draw, payout and what to expect from the long score right here.

The Bob Feist Invitational—know industry wide as the BFI—is a high-powered jackpot that’s earned the respect of competitors from all levels.

Whereas most winter breakaway rodeos are short scores that require pinpoint precision, the BFI’s setup inside the Lazy E Arena requires guts to run a calf down on a longer score and slam on the brakes to stay in the money. 2023 champion Sarah Angelone roped in 3.05, 3.04 and 3.64 seconds to get the win.

The BFI breakaway roping takes place Wednesday, April 3, on the BFI’s “All-girl” day. The day kicks off with team roping at 9 a.m., and the breakaway starts at 1 p.m. CT.
