So nice to bring back happy memories! However as an adult, you sure can ride a saddle trained bovine! Longhorns especially, are very smart and athletic. Properly trained and handled with kindness, they become docile and eager to please and bond with the persons who love and care for them! Here are some photos of our bull "TR"

Great to see you here ! I am getting a steer in Oct, I am very impressed with your cows riding. I have seen your website. Until then the only riding Longhorns I knew of were Darols down in Ohio. His granddaughter Kara I think will be riding soon.

How hard are they to train? Similar to a horse? I would imagine maybe a little easier since cows are a little more calm and level headed, so unless you REALLY spook them or hurt them I would imagine they stay with all 4's on the ground.

I don't know of anyone but I am sure you could email the guy thru his website and he could answer your questions.
