: I agree with TheRoanBadger. Take her as many

: practice. Request slack when you
: enter...they will usually let you take a

: Since nobody has answered you I guess I will
: chime in. Sounds like your going to have to
: take her to some other peoples arena's where
: they are roping and see what happens when
: you ride in the box. Specially if she
: doesn't do it at home, she might try you at
: a practice arena where you can correct her.

: I've got a horse that's 10 now. I started
: calf roping on her when she was 5. Didn't
: go to a lot the first couple years probably
: around 30 total. Other than a few rodeos she
: stood in the corner and scored really nice.
: Then I let a guy get on her at a rodeo and
: she spun out of the corner on him bad and
: she hasn't been the same since. At home she
: is perfect in the box but at the rodeo it's
: a mental thing and she won't find the corner
: until a few times spinning out. lately
: she's even started locking up. It could
: just be the way I'm riding her but I've
: always had pretty soft hands and can
: generally move them where I want with me
: feet but this girl is not having it anymore.
: About the only thing that works anymore is
: to lope her until she's dripping wet and
: then she's pretty good. If anyone has any
: input I would appreciate it. Thanks
