Sorting
The team must find and move three cows with their assigned number from the herd and drive them to the other end of the arena. If any of the cut cows get back to the herd there no time. The teams had two approaches to this competition. One was to cut out the cows one at a time and run them to the other end and hold them there, two was cut out all three cows and then run them to the other end of the arena.
This team cut all three cows and then moved them.
Calf Branding
This event requires the team to rope their designated cow, drag it out of the corral and apply a cold branding iron.
Wild Cow Milking
Teams rope a wild cow and hand-milk it into an empty coke bottle. One team member then runs the bottle across the finish line, and pours out a small amount of milk for the judges to prove they accomplished the task.
The cow is roped by the horns and hind legs to give the cowboy access to the udder. I was unable to get a clear shot of this.
