Phil starts with a simple, common sense approach of training horses to understand people and teaching people to understand horses. Over the past twenty-five years, Phil has competed in over 1,000 rodeos, qualifying for both the Badlands Circu

it Finals and the Prairie Circuit Finals. Winning at both ends of the arena-rough stock and timed events-led to Phil winning the coveted Linderman Award in 1989. In addition to providing the training and discipline to get both horse and rider ready for top-level competition, Phil has developed his own unique colt starting program that consists of developing a horse/rider relationship based on trust and respect, which establishes a strong set of fundamentals. He has had over 1500 horses in training with an Equistat earnings of over $1,000,000. Phil and his family currently reside at the Haugen Training Facility in Weatherford, Oklahoma. Whether at home, in the rodeo arena, or at a clinic near you, each of Phil's experiences contribute to and reinforce his philosophy of "Training through understanding".

Summer training brings its own unique set of challenges. From heat and humidity to flies and mosquitoes, the extra stress on our horses can chip away at their focus and trainability.

In this episode, I’m sharing some tips for keeping your horse soft and focused, even when conditions aren’t ideal. From simple adjustments in your training routine to the fly control gear that helps keep your horses comfortable and relaxed, this episode is all about setting your horse up for success no matter the season.

In speed events, being able to accelerate and maintain forward momentum through a turn can make all the difference.

In this episode, I'm sharing some recent experiences with horses I'm currently training, and the foundational skills we’ve been focusing on to help them stay balanced, responsive, and confident while carrying speed through a turn.

Whether you’re working a barrel pattern or tracking cattle, these principles can help you take your horse's performance to the next level.

It was truly an honor to play a small part in the inaugural The Levi Wright Foundation Memorial Barrel Race and fundraiser event in Salina, UT.

Grateful to Kallie and Kayla for bringing so many good people together in support of such a meaningful cause. This industry is full of salt-of-the-earth folks, and it was a privilege to be among them.

Well, it finally happened. After almost 300 weeks in a row of putting out new podcasts, I missed one. And you know what? I'm pretty proud that we made it that far.

But here's the thing—missing a week doesn’t mean the streak is broken for good. It just means it's time to start again.

In this episode, I’m sharing a few stories from the road, some of the unexpected hiccups that knocked me off my routine, and why learning to reset and restart is one of the most valuable tools we can develop in life and in horsemanship.

In this week's episode, I'm joined by a very special guest who has become a friend and inspiration in both life and business. Nate Horner with Horner Equine⁠ joins us as we dig into the mindset and habits that it takes to run a successful cattle and horse operation, as well as a thriving veterinary clinic.

As a self-proclaimed 'recovering perfectionist,' Nate shares the strategies that have helped him find balance in his personal and professional life, all while continuing to become a better husband, father, friend and colleague each and every day.

This episode is packed full of insightful takeaways and words to live by―you don't want to miss it!

Knowledge without application doesn’t get you very far. You can know everything there is to know, but if you don’t apply it at the right time, it won’t do much good—and the same goes for your equipment.

In this episode, I’m sharing a few training moments from the week that reminded me how important it is to use your tools with purpose and adjust based on what your horse needs from you that day.
