In this video, NFR header Rhen Richard works with Kenny’s Brookstone—a 5-year-old gelding by Brookstone Bay—to address common issues in team roping horse training like shouldering out and box anxiety. Rhen breaks down how to help a seasoned futurity horse stay square and mentally locked in during the run, while also simulating show-day pressure at home. If your head horse leaks out or fades off the cow, this session shows how to correct that with purposeful scoring and controlled pressure. You’ll also get tips on improving commitment to the cow, handling incorrect leads, and building consistency in heading practice. Perfect for anyone serious about training a heading horse to handle pressure and stay true in the corner and across the pen.
