Thanks for showing what the beginning of cutting horse training is like. She looks like a smart athletic mare.
Q – At this point of her training how long had she been exposed to the mechanical cow?
You are welcome, fireweed.
When we shot this video, the filly had been on cattle about 6 months.

Thanks for all your video’s Larry, I have your spin and roll back videos and I really like the way you go about explaining the various problems one encounters and how to fix them!!.
Q. At what age is it considered to late to start a mare in cutting training? Would a 6yr old be considered to old???
You are welcome, MsCircleR.
Training a 6yr old is actually an advantage. I’d go for it.

I was curious, do you ever use buffalo for training?
Yes, I tried buffalo for two years.
There are pros and cons to using them.
I’d rather use the flag but that is just my personal preference.
Other trainers use buffalo a lot and have good luck with them.

Larry, The mare is looking better and better. I would like to see a video now back on a cow to see how you training has corrected the mare from looking away when going to right. How is your new place coming along?

Hi Don,
The filly sold to a new home shortly after we shot this video so I don’t have any new footage of her.
I love the new training facility. Five arenas and a great barn. Couldn’t be any better.
Take care,
Larry T.
