The horse is made ready for the day of battle, but the victory belongs to the Lord. Proverbs 21:31

This is the first time swinging a leg over this big, handsome 4 year old gelding. My standards are that it should look this easy on any horse that I am starting. If it doesn’t look this easy then I have missed something or I haven’t prepared them well enough and I need to do a better job. Regardless of how much work I put in or preparing I do though, the victory and the glory still belongs to the Lord!

I can’t begin to explain how much I love this. I am not a serious competitor but this can be applied to starting c**ts too. ❤️

In the performance horse world we talk about “mental toughness” in a competition setting… I think we should shift the conversation to “mental surrender.”

People brag about competitors having “ice water in their veins”…how would your mindset change if you embraced the fact you’ve got the Holy Spirit in your veins? THE spirit of almighty God living on the inside of you working through you.

The need for control is what stirs up anxiety- let it go…invite His presence in that space.

The best sports psychology advice ever written can be found in the book of Philippians:

Philippians 4:6-8
Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.
And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.

2 Tim 1:7 amp
For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].

A “sound mind” is focused on what God says about your circumstances. A sound mind produces sound emotions, a sound mind produces sound decision making.

To me having a good competitive mindset comes from intentionally realizing the presence of God. The sanctuary that I can take with me whether I go.
Nerves create tension and resistance.
Tension and resistance create mistakes and bobbles.

Being at peace and focused creats fluidity and smoothness. Smooth is fast.

UPDATE: Full for the year! Thanks everyone! Please reach out if you are already thinking ahead to 2025!

Hey everyone!!

Considering taking one more training horse this summer but will be particular about what I take.

I only have one training horse at a time so they get my undivided attention and get exposed to all the real life things that happen with a busy family!

If you’ve had a horse in training with me before you know that I am borderline obnoxious with updates! I text every day that I work your horse and fill you in on everything so that you feel like you are a part of the process! No mysteries here.

Please message me if you are interested!

Stop sacking out and over desensitizing c**ts....I know it's an unpopular opinion but we would rather start a c**t that's not halter broke then a c**t that's dead to anything and everything around them why? They're dangerous when they have temper tantrums, when they get pushed past their limits in training and the list goes on. All you're making in some cases is a heartless spoiled brat that's no good under pressure. I don't care about the gimmicks of noodles and tarps, leaf blowers etc. It doesn't make for a gentle c**t...I want a c**t to move off my energy, my body language and not jump in my lap in times of stress. 9 times out of 10 you're making c**ts worse by tinkering with them yourself and over desensitizing.

This is what it’s all about!! ❤️

When I started my page in 2015, I wanted to make it a page where people could get to know me and how I train but more importantly, get to know the horses I have available by seeing frequent updates about them and therefore, feel very comfortable about purchasing them. Kayla Joan and her husband Eric have followed my page and first reached out to me almost a year and a half ago! They were very patient and waited this long for the perfect horse to come along.

So, Jack is off to his new home and I am so thankful for people like Kayla and Eric who follow my page and trust my program. 🙏 It makes me so happy and it’s such a blessing to match people with horses!

Disregard all the mud! It rained all night before this picture and Jack decided to coat himself in it right before he was picked up. 😂

Jack had a week off while we were out of town but got right back to riding without any change! He is so fun!!

Jack has been doing great and has two solo rides under his belt now. Really proud of this guy!

One thing we love about Jack is that he loves everyone! A few days ago our daughter was singing/yelling “Take Me Out To the Ball Game” right by the edge of the pasture while jumping and dancing and Jack stopped eating and walked straight up to her as she continued her performance. He stood at the edge of the fence as if he was her audience while the other three horses didn’t even glance. 🥰

The ‘head down’ cue is essential for Jack with his size and he was quick to learn it! In return, lots of snuggles and scratches. 😊 He is so awesome.

Here is a longer video from one of Jack’s first rides here (already had 30 days riding and driving prior to us buying him). It’s not perfect or fancy by any means but I have no doubt he will polish up nicely!

This is Jack! He is a BIG 3 yr old percheron cross gelding who has had 30 days riding and driving so far and will continue riding with us this summer. I have to admit that I love a stocky little mare but I really am excited to get to offer a big colored gelding later this year when he is ready! Jack is extremely quiet and good minded and has a future of being a rock solid trail partner for someone. Lots of post to come about Jack as we carry on with rides on him. Please share and like/follow Seventy Two Equine to keep up with his progress!

Sold!
Purdy is a gorgeous 3 year old, 14.2h roan mare with 90 rides last summer as a 2 yr old. She competed at the Ranch Horse Extravaganza & Futurity where she pulled a check and placed 6th in Ideal Ranch Horse. She is still eligible to return to RHE for the 3 yr old classes this year! Purdy also has many miles on the trail and loves it! This girl will go anywhere you point her. She has a great collected jog, extended trot, lope, and extended lope. Lots of body control too, she side passes very lightly and yields shoulders and hind quarters. She has had a few rides so far this spring and will have more consistent rides from here on out. Purdy loves attention! She is easy to catch, stands tied, loads, and stands for farrier and vet. She is best suited for an advanced intermediate or advanced rider as she is still young and she has a lot of feel. If you are looking for VRH, barrel prospect, penning and sorting prospect, or trail partner that has the look everyone wants — Purdy is it!! She is UTD on trimming, deworming, and vaccinations; she has also had her teeth floated this spring, wolf teeth removed, and has a negative coggins. Purdy does not require any maintenance or special care. She is sound and healthy with straight, clean legs! Located in central Minnesota.

This guy moves like a dream and has endless potential. He lopes off from a walk or stand still like it’s nothing, does flying lead changes with ease, and rolls back over his hocks like that’s the only way he knows. He is one cool dude! 😎

It’s not often that I get to offer one that is a older than 2 or 3 so here you go folks!

Lady is a 2018 AQHA mare that is ready to be someone's partner in crime! The only reason I am letting her go is because she has a little too much power for our son to ride out and about and I need the room for 2 yr olds that will be coming. I've ridden her all winter out alone and with others and our 8 year old son has had a blast riding her in the round pen. She is not a dead head. She stays alert to her surroundings and is very responsive on the ground and while riding. No buck, rear, kick, bite, or anything of that sort. She is easy to catch and is by far the most affectionate horse I've ever had! She loves a good hug! Lady is about 14.3h and very stout. Please message me with any questions and I can tell you everything you need to know about her. She is one sweet girl! Located in Brandon, MN. Lots of pictures and video available!

Lady could very well be one of the smartest and most willing horses I have had. When I got her, she had no idea how to break at the poll, lengthen and stretch her topline, or collect in any way. She knew how to bend laterally just a little but nothing great. For the most part, she carried herself very tight through the topline, stiff as a board from head to toe, and with her back hollowed out. These pictures may look insignificant but the cool part is that this was only the second day of me asking her to lower her head. The day before I had asked her for it about 6 times and then quit on a really good note. This second day she dropped her nose to the ground on the third ask and was even taking big heavy breaths and blowing her air hard like she had discovered new whole new feeling and found a place to relax and release. It wasn’t just for a couple second either, she held it here for minutes. She would eventually rise slowly and when I’d ask her to give again she would lower all the way back down. Such an awesome feeling when a horse responds this positively to your suggestion!
