2 Man Ranch Sorting Fun Days 2009/2010 Dates
October 18 November 8 December 6 January 3 * rescheduled to Jan 10 due to snow January 31 February 28
Held at Bona Morgans in Lakeville Start time 11:00 am $25.00 per person per team - 3 go's In ranch sorting, there are two round pens, separated by an opening. Cattle are numbered and are sorted between pens in ascending numerical order by two mounted riders. For example if the announcer calls "4", the riders begin by cutting the cow numbered 4 and moving it to the other pen. They then sort 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. If a cow is sorted out of order, or if one comes back across the foul line from the other pen it is judged a 'no time'. Teamwork is the key with two riders working in harmony to cut out the correctly numbered cattle and drive them to the other pen while keeping the wrong numbered cattle back.
