[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1760830, member: 498"] Here for a while everyone went to calf tables. Then ropers and rope horse were getting scarce. Then summer comes along. The cows are often 10 miles or more from the nearest corral and chute. Doctoring a sick calf requires roping. So as much as anything the branding pen is where people and horses learn how to handle a rope and a calf attached to the other end. We literally hold work shops for young people teaching them how to rope and handle cattle. Experienced men and women riding right along side the young people. Nobody is tied hard and fast so if things go sideways toss the rope away and everyone live for another day. [/QUOTE]
