Yet another oustanding video Larry! We don't get to see green colts starting on cattle at these early stages. I have a 16 month old filly. you've shown us a starting point for when she is ready. Thanks heaps again Larry ...Awsome.
Hi Noah, Put only one cow in the arena at a time. Approach the cow from the rear and let the horse follow it around. Don't force the horse to get too close. After 8 or 9 sessions, the horse will be more confident. Larry T
Great video Larry! I have a question about green horses though. How do you get that quick stop? I have a young green qh and when I try to stop or even slow down he runs straight through the bit. He also goes too fast and when I try to get him collected he will never lift up his ribcage. Any tips to help these issues?
Hello great video, i've got a question, my horse is 2 years and 10 months old she started the basics, 2 months ago and i'd like to start cutting, but i'v e got only one cow and I don't know how to introduce her to the cow, should i just ride her and let her follow the cow? then i can start to work on both the cattle and the mechanical cow ? Thank you :D
Hi, On my website, you'll find an online training course with streaming videos titled, "Introduction to Cow Work". It'll show you everything you need to know about starting your horse on cattle.
@SkippinAflame The biggest tip I can give you about training a horse to stop is to make it so he WANTS to stop. There is a ton of detail about this in my stopping dvds. LarryT.
the horse wasnt responding how the guy wanted. they are called chaps, and they keep you in the saddle better, protect your legs from thorns and things like that, and help keep you warm. he was just practicing getting him ready for the yearlings
@bluesky14100 the the thins r called chaps nd I believe its so u don't get hurt origanilly while working out in the field but I'm not 100% sure on tht. And the stopping in the begining is just an excercise so the horse doesn't puul thru the bit most likely
@hotdoobie Hi Pam, I'm glad Doobie is working well for you. I think he was a very good buy. Go ahead and work some cattle and have some fun. Just make sure you lope him enough to have the "fresh" off before you put him on the cow. Larry T.
Hi Mate- from Australia! Your videos have me obsessed with working cattle and becoming a better horseman. Thanks for uploading!
Very good Larry. I can clearly see the set release's in our hands in the stops and his turns are just great. Very informative on many levels. Thanks.

@JessWilliam Hey Jess, the colt is by Kit Dual but I can't remember how his dam is bred.
