Below is an introduction from our clinician:
Hello, my name is Taylor Blaine. I have competed in WSCA game shows, 4-H, barrel races, and rodeos for several years now. I also have experience in the hunter/jumper, reining, and pleasure disciplines. I now focus on training colts and barrel horses and their riders. I have earned State 4-H trips in pleasure and games, WSCA champ show trips, won multiple buckles, saddle, top 10 SEMSCA, rodeo and 1D placings, last year I finished 3rd in the state for barrel racing in Minnesota High School Rodeo and qualified for the National High School Finals Rodeo out in Gillette Wyoming.
