In this session, Brad Barkemeyer works a 4-year-old horse in the arena with a live cow, demonstrating drills designed to build responsiveness and fluidity. He walks through a series of exercises—lead changes, counter arcs, and fast-to-slow transitions—that blend dry work with cow work to improve agility and reaction time. Brad emphasizes clear communication through leg cues and rein contact, helping the horse stay soft, correct, and confident without overreacting. This hands-on demonstration shows how to develop precision and control while keeping a young horse mentally engaged on a cow.
