The Josey Ranch has been training champions since 1967. Our clinics are made to offer individualized instruction to each student while on the barrel pattern. Let's take a walk through a typical day in a Josey Clinic.

Students will fill out paperwork with a questionare about themselves as a rider and the horse they will be riding in the clinic. When students arrive at the Josey Ranch they will attend a welcome meeting and start things off with an equipment check. Saftey is the number one priority at the Josey Ranch, which is why all student's equipment is checked and students are encouraged to go at a speed that is comfortable for them. Students are more than welcome walk, trot, lope, or run the barrel pattern in their first runs. After first runs we will move into classes in our three different arenas.

Welcome to the Main Arena: This is where we make all our timed runs and work on the barrel pattern a little faster. This is where students will attend their Individual Work class. Here students get the chance to go through the pattern with Ty Mitchell, Gary Arthur, and Terry Thomas receiving instruction on each barrel. During this class, instructors focus on smoothing things out in the lope and run. This is where students have the opportunity to try bits from the Josey Bit Line, this way students are allowed to try before they buy to make sure the bit is going to work for their horse.
