Whether you’re starting a heel horse, breakaway horse or calf horse, a good foundation of the basics will set you and your horse up for success. In this video brought to you by Cactus Ropes, Trevor Brazile and Miles Baker explain how they start their rope horses to go in any direction by helping them develop an ingrained sense of timing.
“This is how we start all of the horses, and then we can choose which way they go. But they all have the same foundation of finding a cow and having great timing before we ever choose which direction we take them.”
