Want to learn how to rope cattle off of your horse but you don’t know where to start? This workshop for you! The perfect introductory workshop for you and your horse. You will be learning how to rope starting with a sled steer which is a roping dummy that can be towed behind a four-wheeler in the arena to simulate roping live cattle. This is a great tool for a new roper. It’s a low-stress, safer way to learn how to track cattle and handle your rope. A roping sled is a tool that allows you to take your time and have more control over your horse, which enables you to sharpen your rope handling skills.
