\"\"Where are you from?<\/strong> I was born in Tyler,Tx. I have lived all around the east Texas area. The current town I live in is Henderson,Tx. For the last 18 yrs.<\/p>\n

When did you start barrel racing?\u00a0<\/strong>1989 started at the local playdays.<\/p>\n

Are you involved in any other equine events?\u00a0<\/strong>No other equine events at this time. I used to Team Pen yrs ago when it first started.<\/p>\n

Who or What got you started barrel racing?\u00a0<\/strong>When I was 13 yrs old we had our horses at a stable. There was a girl there that was training barrel horses. I used to watch her and really fell in love with it. She took her own life at 18 yrs old. I wanted to keep learning in memory to her.<\/p>\n

On the road things sometimes happen. Do you have an unusual or funny story?\u00a0<\/strong>At one big barrel racing event there was like 700 riders and I was up for hours waiting my turn. Like 4am that morning I got to make my run. At the time I was ridding 2 horses. One went to the left and the other to the right. I was so tired I ran the left handed horse to the right barrel first. I was so suprised that the horse made a money winning time. When I came out my friend goes what horse are you ridding? I said Boogie. She said don’t he go to the left barrel first? I said yes. She said well you went to the right barrel first. Ha Ha We all got a big laugh at that one for days.<\/p>\n

What was the name of your favorite horse and tell us a little about it<\/strong>.\u00a0Magnolia Night (aka Baby) without a doubt has been my favorite horse but I never actually owned her. Baby, now 19, was purcI have 2 favorite horses. The first one name was Ramblin Troubles(Beau). I trained him for the fall futurities. I placed in the top 5 for the first one. The secound one , I won. The third one he caught a bad cold. I took him every barrel race you could go to over the next 5 yrs. He won buckles ,saddles, arena records. He was one of my horses from God I asked for him and I got him. He know lives in Oklahoma retired. The secound horse was a horse named Haley Glo Uno. (Squirrel). He was the secound horse God gave me. I took him to Pro Rodeos. He did great . I won WPRA rodeos. He was great . I loved both of theses horses, Still do. They were gifts much appreciated. The made me who I am today.<\/p>\n

What are some of the events that you have won (or races that stand out in your mind)?<\/strong>\u00a0I have won many Barrel Races. Rodeos, Super Shows ect. I have won Horse Trailer, Saddles, Buckles, ect. To many to list all wins are special to me. I have won all this on many different clients horses.<\/p>\n

Over the years have you noticed any changes in barrel racing what are the good or bad you’ve seen?\u00a0<\/strong>The changes of course are the D’s in barrel racing. I am a charter member of the NBHA . The design of the D’s was to help the little guy out. I like the 3-D system. But I did see the need for the 1\/2 off horse. I think the D’s should be 4-D.<\/p>\n

What is do you think of an equal pay out 4d?<\/strong> Personally, I do not agree with equal payout. Some feel it is discriminating against the 1D\/2D horses.<\/p>\n

Do you think of yourself as a professional barrel racer?<\/strong> Yes I am a professional barrel horse trainer. I have 2 available spots open at this time.<\/p>\n

Who is your favorite barrel racer or barrel racers?<\/strong> The 2 girls that helped me at the start and I learned different things from both is Shelly Gish and Linda Fletcher. I also got to go to the futurities in the early 90’s and watched the best train horses in the practice pen. No exhb. then just open area. I would set for hours and watch and learn. I meet Talmadge Green and he was such a big help and nice to me. We are still friends today. I use to watch Dena Kirpatrick all the time . I love her style.<\/p>\n

Do you think barrel racing should be limited to women only?<\/strong> Barrel races should not be limited to women. I still believe that Rodeos should be for women only<\/p>\n
