The purpose

Reined Cow Horse is becoming one of the fastest growing events in the equine industry. Full of vaquero inspired tradition, the sport creates a well balanced horse that is broke and excels inside the show pen and out. Cody Patterson leads you through all aspects of training young horses preparing from their futurity year to a finished bridle horse. This series represents all of the cow work involved in the sport, while Cody’s other series Reining Fundamentals goes in depth into the reining.

The Foundation

Follow a variety of horses through their initial rides. This series is completely raw and unedited; we don’t remove the bumps. Colt starting, even on the smoothest days, never goes as planned. Dusty Whitford shows you how to overcome each training obstacle to put on the most important rides in a horse’s career. The first ride is the most important, followed by the second.

The competition

Two year old cutting and cowhorse specialist Dusty Whitford highlights the weekly training of two colts each year. Both colts are headed toward futurities in either the cowhorse or cutting, and he leads you through the training that sets the foundation for their performance horse careers.
