GRAY PERFORMANCE HORSES

based in Abilene, TX, where average is not an option

My training and teaching method isn’t for everyone – it’s a lot different than what most trainers do.  My method is centered around trust, not dominance, between the rider and horse. In addition to riding, you’ll learn all aspects of horsemanship from hoof-care to nutrition and everything in-between. I invite you to come out and take a free discovery lesson to see for yourself. My lessons involve fostering trust between the rider and the horse, I do not offer one-off rides or group rides.

WHAT YOU’LL LEARN


In addition to horsemanship lessons, I also offer horse training. Regardless of your horse's current situation, they can learn to have a can-do attitude, want to please you, and be relaxed in everything they do. Traditional methods don’t achieve these results – my non-traditional, no-pain method does.

HORSE TRAINING

  • "In 2 days, he had me riding her in a saddle that fit, with no bit in her mouth. I was still lacking confidence in myself, but Annie was walking in an unfamiliar place with her head down, relaxed on a loose rein. By the end of the weekend, Gray was taking her shoes off and Annie was staying. We made the commitment to make the trip from Ft. Worth to Abilene as many times as we could while she was there so I could hold up my end of the bargain. Gray wasn’t just training Annie, he’d be teaching me a whole new way of horsemanship."
