Optical cycling is achieved on SrOH in a cryogenic buffer-gas beam by employing the rotationally closed $P\\left(N''=1\\right)$ branch of the vibronic transition $\\tilde{X}^{2}\\Sigma^{+}\\left(000\\right)\\leftrightarrow\\tilde{A}^{2}\\Pi_{1/2}\\left(000\\right)$. A single repumping laser excites the Sr-O stretching vibrational mode, and photon cycling of the molecule deflects the SrOH beam by an angle of $0.2^{\\circ}$ via scattering of $\\sim100$ photons per molecule.
