You don't want your horse to learn to stop when you throw your rope, if you teach her that then you will come into bigger problems when pasture roping, team roping, and calf roping...The horse should learn to stop when you sit down in the saddle and role your hips back.... If you teach them to stop when you throw and you ever miss then several things will happen, 1: (pasture roping) the cow will get away from you and you will have to play a lot of catch up to get back to the cow which could put you in a rougher terrain and farther away from where you need the cow to go. 2:( team roping) the head horse will stop instead of making the turn into the corner, healing the horse will pull the rope from underneath the steer. 3:(calf roping) you miss and gotta fish then the horse will pull the rope off the calf and you will have a lot of catch up to do if using a second loop. 4: (any roping) the horse get to anticipate the throw and stop and learns to stop to fast and throws the rider over the head as soon as the rider shifts forward to throw....
Cooper Hill #11 walk them around the chute with u on the ground hit the chute to make noise walk them into the chute on the ground and praise them when they do and do the same in saddle

What do you do if your horse is afraid of chutes?
