Jim and JD on a ride in one of our local poppy fields in the spring of 2008, this was one of JD's first rides in the hackamore. This ride was also JD's first encounter with a rattlesnake and hence a "GUNSHOT", he did great and never missed beat!
JD was branded with the "Fly'n CJ" this spring. All went well and is growing back in very nice.

Coyote Creek Ranch Branding
Jim and JD were invited to a branding at the "Coyote Creek Ranch" in Winnemucca Nevada. The "Coyote Creek " is a working cattle ranch with about 800 head of cattle. They were there forfour days and worked and rode long hours. This was JD's first time in the branding and did an OUTSTANDING job. Jim received many complements on JD's abilities at such a young age. The crew branded about 100 head during their stay.
