Thank you for your interest in our Annual Supreme Cowboy Trail Competition. Riders will be required to complete an interesting and challenging series of maneuvers and obstacles covering approximately 1-1/2 acres. Judging Criteria is: Horsemanship, Cadence, Control, Horse’s Attitude, and Overall Execution of Horse & Rider as a Team. Although the course is timed, it is often the horse and rider team who takes the course in a steady, calculated approach that comes out “on top”. The goal is to be the Supreme Working Horse & Rider Team.
Friday, September 23rd – 11:00am TRAIL COURSE CLINIC. Show Rules, Judging Criteria, and Scoring will be gone over as well as instructions on how to maneuver the obstacles. Contestants entering both the Clinic and the Trail Competition will receive a free dinner on Sunday evening and a free stall for one night.
