What happens during a sorting...

Ranch Sorting, in its basic form, is successfully sorting/cutting
cattle out in a specific order and moving them from one cattle
pen into another in teams of two. Everyone in the group will get
a chance to help set the cattle up by running them through the
cattle chutes and placing numbers on their backs (Cow 0
through Cow 9).
Keep in mind that one person on the team of two will guard the
"gate" to make sure that cows that have already been sorted
don't cross back into the herd (where they really want to be with
all their buddies) and one person proceeds to "sort" a specific
number cow out of the herd. And all in under 60 or 90 seconds!
