Cutter

Uploaded: November 26, 2011

Description

Cutter has become a West Texas sport that sprung from the need to separate a certain cow from a small herd and keep the cow from returning. If the cow tries to return to the herd, the cowboy loosens the reigns and lowers his head and the horse will keep the cow from returning.

Why take the little cow away from the herd? (Leave it to me to get stuck on that!) Just sounds sad for the little cow...Lol...
