    Cow Horse Classes

    Continuing Education Program for AHA Licensed Officials Cow Horse Classes 12/1/19 COW HORSE CLASSES INTRODUCTION • While some AHA Judges and Stewards are familiar with cow horse classes, most do not get the chance to work them often enough to gain valuable experience. This module is an overview of the various types of cow horse classes in Arabian shows today and will you help you gain the confidence needed to work a show with cow horse classes. COW HORSE CLASSES • At Arabian shows, there are three divisions of cow horse classes: Working Cow Horse, Reined Cow Horse and Cutting. • Scoring for each division ranges from 60-80 points. COW HORSE CLASSES • In addition to the USEF Rule Book, AR Rules refer to the AHA Handbook, National Reined Cow Horse Association and the National Cutting Horse Association rules for specific sections. COW HORSE CLASSES WORKING COW HORSE • Working Cow Horse classes consist of one phase. • One cow is released into the arena and the rider has to complete a series of maneuvers, showing control of the cow. • There is no pattern. COW HORSE CLASSES WORKING COW HORSE • There is no time limit, other than the “new cow rule”. • The judge will blow a whistle to signify they have seen enough work. • Time is usually kept by the announcer. • The judge will have a scribe. COW HORSE CLASSES WORKING COW HORSE MANUEVERS The maneuvers include: • boxing (keeping the cow at one end of the arena), • turning on the fence (running the cow down the arena fence and turning him back the other way) and • circling (maneuvering the cow smoothly at least 360 degrees in each direction without using the fence).

  • 2020-2021 Ground Rules

    2020-2021 Ground Rules

    Ground Rules Standard Event Order: Bareback Riding, Breakaway Roping, Tie Down Roping, Barrel Racing, Steer Wrestling, Saddle Bronc Riding, Goat Tying, Team Roping, Pole Bending and Bull Riding. Cow Cutting order for double cuts: Girls Cutting, Boys Cutting, Boys Cutting and Girls Cutting. At times, a rodeo committee is approved to change the event order. The details and any change in event order is posted on the website. It is your responsibility to review the information page for each rodeo as posted on the websites schedule page. Cow Cutting: Cutting may or may not be held at the same location or same time as all qualifying rodeos. This allows the committees the opportunity to pool resources with another rodeo committee. If a cutting is held at a different location the same day of a rodeo, there will be adequate time allocated for you to travel to the rodeo grounds to compete in your remaining events. Reined Cow Horse: RCH is not a standard event and will be offered a minimum of three (3) times at the qualifying level. 10 points will be awarded for 1st place down to 1 point for 10th place. Because this is not a standard event, All-Around points are not awarded for the qualifying competitions. Only points earned at the state finals rodeo will apply to All- Around. Tie Down Ropers: Starting the Fall of 2020, if you “Jerk Down” a calf, you will be assessed a 5 second penalty. Rough Stock Contestants: Be sure to review the Safety Checklists that are posted on the Entry Form page of the website.
