Al Dunning has developed AD Tack, a collection of some of the finest quality saddles, bridles, bits, leg protection, show and training equipment available.
The CowTrac II Mechanical Cow is the perfect solution for training your horse to work with cows. Designed to help your horse stop straight, improve roll-backs, and maintain proper positioning. With its compact size, powerful performance, and portability, it offers convenience and efficiency for all your training needs. Paired with the Bump Technology, this is Al’s choice of systems.
Compact, Powerful, and Portable
The CowTrac II™ System comes in a compact, weather resistant NEMA4 steel enclosure powder coated for durability. The system comes standard with enough Supercord line for a 100 foot working area and quick mount pulley system. It weighs only 24 lbs. and comes with a 2 year limited warranty.
The system comes standard with manual controls mounted on the side of the unit. Manual controls include Power Switch, Motor Polarity Switch, Adjustable Ramp control, Left/Right Switch and Slow/Fast Speed Control. The built in adjustable ramp-down feature keeps the cow from starting and stopping abruptly and ensures a smooth transition from slow to fast and fast to slow.
Dual Speed Operation
There are two adjustable speed settings on the CowTrac II that can be accessed from either the remote or the manual switch.
Pressing the remote in either direction will always start the movement at the speed set by the “slow” speed adjustment dial. Releasing and re-pressing the same button will speed up the movement based on the “fast” speed adjustment dial. Releasing and re-pressing the same button will return the system to the slow speed. Changing directions will always return the system to the slow speed setting.
Adjustable Stop (Hard, Medium, Soft)
All CowTrac™ series systems come with the ability to set the stop. You can select a hard stop, a slow stop or one in between.
True Portability
All CowTrac™ Systems operate on 120VAC/240VAC or directly from a 12 VDC source like a deep cycle battery. The optional universal mounting system makes it easy to set up and take down in minutes.
Remote Control
Each CowTrac II™ system comes with a lightweight 2 button remote as well as manual direction control mounted on the enclosure. The built in ramp-down feature allows the rider to adjust the stopping period. The tactile switch allows you to feel the contact. It can be used on either hand or placed on the saddle horn. Flush button design eliminates unwanted operation.
Includes Adjustable Velcro band and two (2) rechargeable batteries and wall/car charger.
Light Flexible Cow
Another innovation by CowTrac™ Systems is the unique design of the cow. It’s 3D head and 2D body provide lifelike movement while being extremely light and weather resistant. The four (4) line “tail-drag” system keeps the tail from sliding by the head when the cow stops. The weighted nose and feet keep the cow stable during movement.

I upgraded from the original CowTrac a few years ago. The features were well worth it and I haven’t had the need to upgrade since then. However, some of the new features on the comparison sheet seem like it might be worth it!

This remarkable product took my roping skills to a whole new level. Its lifelike movements and realistic speed allowed me to practice my techniques with precision. The adjustable settings and remote control made it easy to customize my training sessions. With the CowTrac II, I felt like I was chasing a real cow in the arena. This innovative device is a game-changer for any cowboy or cowgirl serious about honing their roping skills. Say goodbye to boring practice sessions and hello to an authentic rodeo experience. Highly recommended!
