[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1769229, member: 21382"] Yeah mine are such liars I swear I think they are running for office most of the time. While it can be annoying when you are out trying to do something else it is priceless when they are not where they are supposed to be. I would love to saddle a horse and go out and move my cattle around but the truth is it is much easier when I can stand just about anywhere on my 90 acres and holler and they come to me in a few minutes. Talking about this with another cattle farmer the other day and he said it is easier to pull a rope than push it. Thats a pretty good way to describe it. I used to lease a farm right beside a busy main 4 lane road. Get a call one morning at 7:00 a.m my cows are in the road. Right at rush hour! I bail in the truck and haul freight. When I get there the cops have traffic stopped and the backup is getting close to a mile or so. I roll down the window and holler my feed call and every one of the 40 fall in behind the truck and right back thru the gate. Traffic moving again in less than 2 min.. I get them settled and come back out the one cop said “ man was I happy to see that!” They are used to having real rodeos trying to round up cattle and drive them back to home. They were not looking forward to that with all that traffic. [/QUOTE]
