Ranch Sorting is the brain child of Bud Gibson.  His goal with this new event is to encourage riders to become better at handling and working cattle while having fun with their horses and other riders. 

The first event was in the spring of 2008 and it began with three man teams with three gates..  Cattle could only be taken out through the middle gate.  This proved to be difficult so at the next event there was a lane added.  Now the cutter needed to cut the cow, bring it up the lane by itself (more than one will lead to a disqualification "DQ"), then out the center gate.  This still proved to be difficult.  The third event became a four man team instead of three with the lane and gates as previously described.  This worked.    

There were a total of four Ranch Sortings in 2008.  The last event on Thanksgiving weekend showed participants were improving and catching onto this new event. 

The first Ranch Sorting the winning team was able to get 3 or 4 through and the last event the winning team got 8 through.  Vast improvement and great fun was had by all. 

Ranch Sorting 2009 will be even better and we hope that anyone interested will come and play.  This series will be awarding a buckle to the highest earner in the Pro and Novice Division at the end.  We will post winnings here for all to keep track of who might win. 

The second season of Ranch Sorting has commenced and we have only two more events to go.
