Hello, In the mid 1800’s there was an old prospector that rode a paint mule and led a grey pack horse. Now don’t ask me why he rode the mule and packed the horse, because it doesn’t make since to me either, but that’s the way the story goes. The guy dreamed of striking it [...]
Hello, In the late 80,s U started to loose that loving feeling for the rodeo business, I felt I needed to change directions but I still wanted to rope and compete and unless your committed to a full time rodeo schedule its tuff to get a quality partner. So knowing that I would go here [...]
Hello, When I was in High school one of the classes I took was biology, the guy that taught the class was a good guy. I should remember a lot more about that class than what I’m about to tell you but I don’t, so I hope Mr. Mullins never reads this. The one thing [...]

Hello, I’ve always thought it was funny when your talking to someone and they say, “Let me tell you something about me”. I always think to myself, why don’t you just talk and I’ll decide what I think about you. So, because of that I’ve always shied away from that saying. But this month I [...]
Hello, There is an old guy that used to live in our area that spent years in the rodeo business. He told me one time that after your rodeo career is over all you will have left is a bunch of old awards with dust on them, some old pictures, and your memories. He said [...]
Hello, When my Dad and I started roping we were just like everyone else is when they started, we were bad. I don’t mean bad like the young people mean, I mean we were terrible. We had a home made horse trailer, a half ton pickup, and a home made ply wood camper. I don’t [...]
