♫ My home’s in Montana .................. ♫ While riding the ranges
... I wear a bandana .......................... My luck never Changes ♪ My spurs are of silver ....................♪ With foot in the stirrup ... My pony is gray ............................ I’ll gallop away I memorized that song when I was about four, out of my sister’s songbook. I guarantee everyone on the road was damn sick and tired of hearing it long before I learned a new one. Maybe because I wasn’t from Montana, nor was I a cowboy, even though I had a horse and Brown Swiss cattle. Speaking of Brown Swiss cattle, wanna ride one ? Yes, you have to go to Switzerland. Quote:

Just don't try it with beef breeds! The one in the above link is a Hereford, which are usually red, sometimes black, but pretty much always have the high-white face. By far the most popular breed for foundation stock seems to be the Brahma, recognizable by their shoulder hump and drooping ears. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com...4ef7c6f8d0.jpg ...And impressive flexibility & hang time! |

Both of those bulls are going nuts because of the bucking strap.
Plus they've learned if they get rid of the rider the bucking strap goes away. When ridden by a lady of class they are gentle and serene. Yeah, sure. They have to be "broken" and trained just like a horse or any other critter. Why bother when the same effort invested in a horse will yield a much more versatile tool.

"...lead the heifer away...?"
Thems be mighty udder-ful heifers! We call 'em cows. There was a guy who used to ride his Brahma bull (steer?) all over Northern California. |

You're right Jim, once they're milking they're not a heifer anymore. That's what happens when you send a city girl to report on the sticks. They get the terminology screwed up, especially where there's nuance.
But whatever, most people reading it won't know the difference and the ones that do may get a chuckle.
