Would You Want Your Horse to Stop If You Fell Off?
Ever notice that in the calf roping events at the rodeo, the rider chases a calf, the horse zooms up next to the calf, and at the right moment, the cowboy slides off his horse, onto the calf, and the wrestling match begins? The horse is trained to run up to and along side the calf so the cowboy can do his thing and then stop and maintain its ground and even pull back to keep tension in the rope.
