Summer Activities in Montana
Our desire is to encourage riders along the path of horsemanship and help develop a solid foundation in every horse we meet. We will gladly share the knowledge we have gained along the way. We've come to appreciate the different needs of people and their horses and we try to design an approach that fits each situation.
For more information on any of these gatherings, give us a call (406) 227-9114 / 439-3030 or email us .....
Cost for any of the listed activities is $75 for 1/2 day (4hrs) or $150 for all day. Bring your horse or ask about renting our experienced saddle horses. Pick your dates, pick your class size - we are riding every day! Evenings also available.
COLT STARTING
Learn & practice foundation skills for you and your colt that will take you beyond the round pen. For most colts, they will learn basic groundwork, foot handling, and be riding outside including introduction to rope work, leg cues, and uneven terrain/ natural obstacles.
WILD WEST HORSMANSHIP
Do you wish your horse had more confidence?
Is your horse nervous or anxious? Is your horse easily distracted?
Do you wish your horse would keep his attention on the task at
hand?
We have a few ideas that can help.....
Want something more advanced?
Complete our Obstacle Course, Foundation Horsemanship Test or put together a 3-man team and enter the Unknown Horseman Challenge.
CATTLE
WORK "ON THE JOB" STYLE
Can you sort off pairs from the herd and put them in the corral? Can you count off a bunch of cows and move them to new pasture? Can you read eartags and brands and take the neighbor's cows home?
Will your horse pack a load of salt or skid a rail for the fence?
Its a great day for both the horses and the riders and an opportunity to put all that hardwork and training to the test.
RANCH STYLE ROPING -
Beginning to Advanced
Learn a variety of ranch & reata loops with emphasis on horsemanship, safety, teamwork, and "no stress" livestock handling methods.
Lots of rugged country to get out and see, a new job or a wet saddle blanket at the end of the day.......
