"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!"

Legendary photographer Johnny Johnston will be in Kansas
City to photograph horses the weekend of June 14th - 15th
2008 at Equestrian Heights located at Lone Star Ranch. "Johnny
Johnston is a legend in the Arabian horse photography business,
the acknowledged 'grandfather of Arabian horse photography,'
according to some" begins the recent article in Modern Arabian
Horse magazine. The article lists Johnston as one of the 100
most influential and significant people, horses or events in the
Arabian breed in the past 100 years. His photos of *Bask++, *Padron
and Khemosabi++++ among others have appeared in countless horse
magazines and many other publications. His book, Arabians from
the Camera of Johnny Johnston, has these photos and many more of
owners with their favorite horses.
Johnny has many wonderful stories about the Arabian horse
industry, some of the famous horses and about how to take
quality photos of horses. He will be sharing these stories and
answering questions about photography and his experiences with
horses at a cook out on Saturday night. No reservation is
necessary.
To reserve a time to have a photo session for your horse with
Johnny, contact Kevin Jochens of Equestrian Heights at
