Hello
everyone,I will be giving two five day stockmanship schools at the Cottonwood Guest Ranch May 5th through May 9, and May 11 through May 15.
Classes are 100% horseback. We will be working cattle in the pasture twice a day, instilling herd instinct back into the cattle. This makes it possible for people practicing planned grazing to do so without using fencing (and to also graze areas left out of grazing plans for being too rough.) It also makes it easier to manage cattle on riparian areas. We will also be working on horsemanship going to and from cattle.
In between sessions on pasture cattle we will be working with cattle in the pens, sorting both in a pen and alley. This portion will cover the natural reactions cattle have to our horses and the horsemanship to take advantage of them.
Classes are limited to eight riders. Because Cottonwood is discounting their cabins and meals, cost is only $325 including room, board, and a place for your horse (provide your own feed.) To reserve a spot, contact Cottonwood Guest Ranch.
