In this switch-end session, Clay O'Brien Cooper heads on a green colt he started heeling on last fall and breaks down the feel he's after in a head horse, from a collected frame and dropped hindquarters to soft, adjustable control through the corner. He talks about developing a young horse through hard knocks and time, and gets honest about the toughest part of learning to head: scoring. Clay explains how he went from getting caught on runners and good steers alike to building a system of three levels of pull, a strong one, a medium one, and just letting his hand down and going, that keeps him and his horses on the same page across every setup. He also reflects on how much easier the run gets on a truly user-friendly horse, and why that matters more as a roper gets older. It's a rare look at one of the greatest heelers in history working through the mental and horsemanship side of the other end of the run.
