Good times there. I have spent many an hour roping a heel-o-matic, great way to spend time and an even better way to spend time as a family!

Those heel o matics are great real good practice for teaching a young horse position I've never owned one but I've had some good burros that were great practice...

A little advice if you want to get those kids sharp heeling get some goats and picket them out with a rope through a piece of PVC or build a pivot like I did. About 30' Diameter and have them heel those goats on foot. Once they can consistently get there timing on a goat steers come easy...
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.
