Quiet anticipation
Article Abstract:
A top roper presents several strategic moves to establish 'quiet anticipation' in a roping horse waiting in the box for the steer to be released, and to teach him to leave the box only on the command of the rider. The strategy would result in a faster exit from the box, resulting in a quicker throw, and faster time.
