August 19th, 2017 by Simone CobbDid You Know They Cut In Sweden?!
June 13th, 2017 by Simone CobbDid you know they cut horses in Sweden? In fact, cutters there overcome many hurdles to practice the sport, such as sub-zero temperatures, a lack of heated arenas, restrictions on cattle movements and herd sizes and more!
But William Nottberg, who flew from Sweden to attend a Wayne Robinson Clinic, says despite those challenges, cutting is a growing sport there.
Will spoke to CHTO’s Simone Cobb about where cutting is at in Sweden and what he learned at Wayne’s clinic to take back and share.

September 20th, 2016 by Simone CobbHall of Fame Rider, Matt Gaines is giving a two-day clinic at Nueces Canyan Ranch, Brenham, Texas on November 4th & 5th, 2016. This clinic will focus on meeting each rider where they are at, helping them to understand exactly what they are trying to achieve and helping the horse to do it. Not only that, Matt places great emphasis on the mind game and will be sharing how to get your head in the right place for success. Fresh cattle will be supplied. Spaces are extremely limited to just 14 people to ensure you get plenty of individual attention and maximum learning in an intimate environment.
“Now it’s easier for me to be cueing the horse. And I have a big problem staying relaxed in my stops. Matt worked with me and I feel much more comfortable about that now…I can’t wait to get home and practice and get ready for the next show,” – Phillip Eatherly from Lebanon, TN.
“Matt has really simplified this for me. I know my weakness was cutting cattle and moving the cows forward. With the way he presents his message, it’s very easy for me now. I’m excited about that. I can’t wait to go to the next cutting,” – Valerie Taylor from Catawissa, MO.
“It was really cool being able to sit around in lawn chairs and toss questions around in a nice relaxed atmosphere,” – Beth Brown from Orwell, OH.
“People that I only saw on the Chatter, [like] Matt Gaines couldn’t have picked me on a line-up. But now if I was coming to Texas, I’d say “hey, can I stop in?” …and that’s priceless,” – Bill Kuttler from Brandenburg, KY.
