I'm curious as to where you all stand on the discussion of using atv's or horses when gathering/trailer/pushing cattle. I really don't think there is a right blanket answer. It really more depends on what you're comfortable with, your skill set, and what's available to you.
In my opinion, horses are the way to go for me. I find that I am more apt to take my time and be in the right position horseback vs a four wheeler. I find that I'm always in a hurry and trying to get the cows to step out just a little more all the time when on an atv. On a horse I rely a whole lot more on my positioning rather than just pushing on them all the time. A horse is also more agile if ya have one trying to turn back or get by ya.
Again, just wondering.
