“Horsemanship is an instrumental factor for success at any level in the equine industry. As a professional barrel racer, every hundredth of a second counts, so attending one of Phil’s clinics to improve my horsemanship skills wasn’t even a question. Phil is an excellent clinician and horseman, I highly recommend his program for anyone from beginner to advanced.”
