Cow Working
Bridle Bit Cow Working Clinics offer participants the opportunity to put horsemanship into action. We try to replicate the kind of cattle work done on real working ranches. The emphasis is on horse and rider teamwork, developing a horse that truly wants to work a cow and on using low-stress livestock handling techniques that pay off on the ranch and in the show ring. The Cow Working Clinic is a great class for all levels of horses and riders. We especially enjoy helping those people and horses that are new to working cattle. Riders learn about position, timing, pressure points and how to utilize their horsemanship skills to track, sort and “cut” cattle. These clinics are really fun!
Clinics limited to 6 riders.
Clinics may be Cow Working 1 or Cow Working 2 depending on horses, riders, and hosts.

Cow working classes are for any rider wishing to start their horse on cattle, or to further advance a horse already working cattle.

The emphasis is on horse and rider teamwork, developing a horse that truly wants to work a cow and on using low-stress livestock handling techniques that pay off on the ranch and in the show ring.
