If I only have one to use I like 80’. I’ve even been in a 120’ a lot and really liked it. I just need a rope that is at least 10’ longer than the half diameter. Since I generally have a 65-70’ rope I’m okay. Of course I could be compensating!
what is a round pen for? It is for getting a horse to face you so you can put a halter on him. I have a 10 ft small round pen for babies. I have a 35 ft round pen for adults. Once you get a halter on him you can communicate. The only way we can communicate is through the sense of feel. The sooner I get out of the round corral and into the trees I can really teach something.
Nice round pen. I have what they call ...an oval pen. Haaaa😂. Its as big as i could make it but if i get a machine to dig out the bank it could get wider to be just about 40. Having it too small kinda sucks for riding in . Had my horse slip n fall on an oval end. All good but the pen needs just a bit more width . We haveva lumber mill so i use saw chips about 3 inches and they are on top of the natural decomposing granite. Not ideal with the chips but they have to be moved so i use them everywhere. You make things work!
