[QUOTE="motrapper, post: 2356652, member: 9246"] An old retired neighbors of mine from Idaho told me of the time him and his brother roped a Bull Moose. Late 1950's Ranch was near the Caribou National forest It was the dead of winter and This bull moose would come down to eat the hay they had for the cattle. So they saddled up there horse and came around the corner of the barn, threw the loop got 1 horn dallied off turned the horse sideways. Next thing he knew the horse was yanked over and getting drug for 10 to 15yds then the cinches break and they watch the saddle an all disappear into the willows. First and last time they ever tried that. I told him you would have been better off heeling him the horse would have at least stood a chance. LOL For those that do not know what heeling is. Its the art of laying the loop in front of the 2 back legs and when they step threw you pull tight and dalley off. You lose alot of power when your 2 back legs are pulled together in the air.
