Staying Safe
Any time you work with large animals, you must acknowledge that their size alone can get you hurt. Should they desire to use their strength and speed against you, the danger further increases. If that’s not enough, add a stout rope to the equation and tie everything together.
If you remember only one word to keep you safe, it should be “control.” This comes back to good horsemanship. If you can control and position your horse properly, he can be a great help to control and position the rope, and, of course, the rope helps control and position the cow.
