The Buddy Hartness Memorial Steer Roping takes place at the Osage County Fairgrounds every year in June.  Rod & Ashlee Hartness always do an amazing job organizing and hosting this event! For steer roping action, you won't find any better than those at the Buddy Hartness Memorial Steer Roping. Also, Pawhuska has long been known as the "Steer Roping Capital of the World!"  Rod & Ashlee Hartness intend to see it stays that way!
