2009 Reno Rodeo Invitational Roping - Reno, NV

A very talented young woman, sixteen-year-old Rachael McCarthy of Tehachapi, California qualified for the High School State Finals Rodeo in three events this year and roped in the Ladies' Only Roping in Reno. She was recently highlighted as a Western Wishes recipient on the Paso Robles Bucking Horse show.

Rachael has a rare cancer that does not respond to traditional chemotherapy, but is responding to experimental treatment by UCLA. Western Wishes is a non-profit organization that grants wishes to critically ill or injured children that live and love the western way of life.

Both Chris and his wife Barb competed at the Reno Rodeo Invitational Roping in June. Barb placed third in the three-steer average with partner Crystal Simmons in the Ladies Only Roping.

Be Consistent: Whatever you do, be consistent. A horse values consistency because it can always be sure of what is expected. Mixed signals, different rules for different locations (in the stall vs. in the pasture), various handlers using conflicting cues — all lead to confusion and then resentment on the part of the horse. Remember, whenever you're handling your horse, you're communicating with your horse, so be consistent always. Many people change once they get in the saddle. You must be the same in the saddle as you are on the ground. Otherwise, your horse will react to the change in your behavior; it isn't consistent.

The Leading Edge in Ground Con trol

$39.99

In this series, clinician and educator Chris Cox teaches you how to gain control of your horse on the ground and establish a foundation of communication that will translate into the saddle. With effective, step-by-step methods you will learn how to teach your horse to respect your space and move as directed. Without a roundpen or stick, Chris will show you how to master your communication with halter and lead rope alone. By relying on simple tools and authentic horsemanship, you will always be prepared to communicate effectively with your horse, anytime or anyplace. As Chris works with an untrained young horse, you will see first-hand what it takes to establish a solid foundation on the ground. Once you've mastered your groundwork in the arena or paddock, Chris will show you how to add some spice to your learning and use your newfound skills to traverse obstacles such as gullies, logs and trees. Runtime: 1 hour 3 minutes

We audited the clinic that was held in Athens OH in June. What a learning experience. It was so informative to watch Chris work with the clinic participants and their horses.
Thanks for a great 3 days.
