MacDonald Performance Training

I'm a bit late getting this out this year. But here is the overarching show schedule like what I made last year (per multiple requests)! Of course, it only includes the shows/clinics we are directly interested in. I know there are a whole host of other shows and clinics that might pertain to our group of people - sorry I did not include them all! Other resources I know of include the MT Quarter Horse Association, Gallatin Valley Working Equitation group, Rocky Mountain Breeders Association, 406 Arena in Vaughn, Holloway's Cow Horses, and Gary Cooper Performance Horses.

Although we will not be hosting any clinics of our own throughout the summer, we are of course available for individual or group lessons, will try to schedule some regular cow practices, and are happy to help anyone at shows! Reach out or feel free to grab either of us at a show, as we both enjoy helping others anyway we can and just want to see people have fun and succeed!

Let's get this summer started and we hope everyone has a great and safe year!

We are hosting our March cow clinic March 7th and 8th. Starting at 9 am daily, ending around 4, with a break for lunch and lunch is provided.

Tye generally covers reined work or flag work Saturday morning and then single cow or herd work Saturday afternoon. Depending on what the group wants, Sunday can be a repeat day or work cows all day.

$200 per day or $400 for the weekend. We limit the number of riders so everyone gets ample time on cattle.

*We are now requiring a $200 deposit upon sign up* (regardless if riding for a day or the full weekend).
*Refundable if you cancel 5 days prior to the event or if we are able to fill your spot if you cancel after the 5 day cutoff. Non-refundable if you cancel 48 hours prior to the clinic start. Thank you for understanding!

Hey all, Tye’s computer is out of commission for about a week which means he doesn’t have access to his personal page. If you sent him a message and are hoping to hear back or need to get ahold of him, message him here or call/text him directly. Thank you! Hopefully the computer will be up and running again soon.

We are a little sad we only have two more days with these nice mares before they head to the Billings Livestock Sale on Saturday.

Shiny Blue Mist, “Lizzy”, is a beautiful all-around type mare that would do well in VRH type shows or general pleasure riding. Alyson has really enjoyed riding Lizzy and hopes she goes to a good home that will enjoy her potential! She sells Saturday afternoon, hip 362.

Metallic Blue Angel, “Raven”, is a two-year-old by Metallic Malice. This is a special little filly with tons of potential. She has lots of cow that wants to work in position. She is flashy, happy, and catches everyone’s eye. We would love to keep her in our program and finish her as a cowhorse or cutter. She als says she would be a rope horse. She sells Saturday afternoon as hip 242.

Both mares will be at the riding preview Friday afternoon at Miller’s Pavilion and Saturday morning before the sale at the BLS arena. Come look for us there! And no worries if you don’t plan to come in person. Both will be available through the on-line auction as well!
