"Cutting" is fast becoming one of the most popular
equine sports. The quick-paced, athletic competition pits horse and
rider against the wiley steer that does not want to be "cut out" or
separated from the small herd of cattle.
Now, famed cutting horse trainer, Kenny Fisher will hold a
beginner's cutting clinic at Lonestar Ranch on Saturday, September
27, 2008.
You will learn the history of cutting, what makes a good cutting
horse, the techniques involved, the building blocks of teaching your
horse to cut, and secrets to impressing the judges in cutting
competitions.
You will also get personal coaching from Kenny Fisher on YOUR horse,
or his, to see if you or your horse has what it takes to "make the
cut!"

Lonestar Lunch from Noon-1:00pm
