when you don't have a horse

[glacierridge]

Nephew with his young cow, she just weaned off a calf.
He's such a big fella, he makes her look like a runt.

She's got a problem of being too docile. Lol

Makes a poor horse tho.
Like her posture may suggest, she don't care for a rider.
She'll stand still as a statue but won't take a step.

LOL! I love her expression. She looks so thrilled

do any of you remember the guy whose daughter was training a heifer for the cow races at their county fair in Wisconsin?

If he is having trouble getting her to move has he considered using spurs? You might want to video tape his effort.

Great picture!
When I was a kid we had a big ole Holstein cow to ride!
There is a lady around here that rides a fat longhorn steer out on the trails. Many times she has a second steer in tow. Talk about scaring the daylights out of our horses when she comes around a bend! :shock: The horses just can't figure it out, and they don't know what to think about that ugly horse she is ridding!! :lol:

Those two need to go through the John Lyons course. The guy with the Appaloosa horse, "Zip." I saw him many years long ago before all these other guys came out. He was good.

He would have these two doing all kinds of tricks.

There's a texan ranch, Premier Longhorns, that specialize in riding steers, riding bulls, etc.. They have a big ole longhorn bull with about a 7' horn span, didn't flinch with a 21 gun salute right beside him

When I ride Mega, I get anyplace SHE wants to go.. At grazing speed

many years ago I knew a young fella who had a Hereford bull that he could put a halter on and ride him to gather the cows....

Was his name Mike Farrish and was the bull's name "Sovereign" ?
