When you are learning calf roping, you can accidentally snap the calf’s neck with your rope. Goats are less valuable than calves, so a goat-roper is a novice who is required to practice on goats. (I learned this in Lubbock, Texas, back in 1977.)
Yes, I know he does a lot of repair work for folks in the neighborhood, but as far as I’m concerned, he’s no more than a goat roper.
