Wild West Entertainment performs for Hands and Hearts for Horses

Here are some photos from our performance in Pavo GA last weekend. This wonderful event raised funds for the therapeutic riding program, Hands and Hearts for Horses. Our apprentice performer/trainer, Stephanie Cons, and I performed a tandem ride and drive, roman riding, fire jumping as well as trick horse and mounted shooting clinics. Next weekend, we'll be representing our sponsors while competing in the Cowboy Mounted Shooting Association event in Marianna FL. Wayne Williams will be interviewing us for his show, Speaking of Horses, the following week - then we'll be announcing the FJRA Rodeo Finals in Ocala. We've been training mounted shooting horses and conducting lessons/clinics between appearances - Lot's going on at Wild West Entertainment!

Busy, Busy, Busy!

Howdy all! Just got back from some business in L.A. and shot the SASS Eastern National Mounted Shooting Championships last Saturday and Sunday (after flying all day and getting to bed at 3am Sat morning) - finished 3rd overall! Two of my students did exceptionally well - Jerry Jacobs won his class of SR M3 and Rifle, and Geoff Goldstein won M5 and overall! Congratulations, cowboys!
