The events we love the most are Cutting, Team Penning and Reining. Now, I am not going to go into detail about each event but I will give a SHORT overview for those who have no clue what I am talking about.
Cutting - A steer is released into the ring and then the horse and rider must block (cut) the cow from one side to the other.
Team Penning - 3 riders and their horses are required to peel out the three cows with the number they are given from the judge. They must then get them all in the pen. Now this is much more in depth...
Reining - Horse and Rider must complete a predetermined pattern. It will include circles, lead changes and sliding stops. Here is a short example of freestyle reining. You must complete certain parts of the pattern but you must also add your own creative touch.
