Grew up on a ranch and this is more or less correct. There is also the fact that most times we do what’s called “feeding” the rope. To be efficient, you start with a small loop and as you swing you let more rope into the loop until it has a nice even weight to it before throwing. Some people can do this in one full swing before throwing.
