The Rancher is a roping cowboy, as is most of these cowboys around here. My family, on the other hand, are cutting cowboys. I love when you see a horse that is knows what she is doing. She moves with the cow, understanding her every move. In so many ways it like a dance.
Usually I don’t see these boys just try to cut and sort out a cow- they just resort to roping her. Don’t get me wrong, there is NOTHING wrong with that, but this girl wants to see some cutting action once in a while. I got just a minute of it after they weaned calves.
There was an ornery cow that they were bringing in that did everything to work against them. 5 cowboys vs 1 cow. Guess who won? Well, the cowboys did eventually but she sure gave them a run for their money. In fact, they gave up on sorting her and turned to what they did best- roping. But the chase was good while it lasted!
