The weather in Muleshoe was pretty cool the morning of March 8 but ended up being really pleasant in the afternoon. We had a good turn out at the Ranch Cutting. There were 8 entries in the OPEN Ranch Cutting and 6 in the Junior Ranch Cutting (horses 5 years and younger). We had a really nice crowd cheering from the stands, too!
Coby Summers of Dimmitt, Texas rode Pretty Little Boonlight and Steve Lewis of Canyon, Texas rode Peppy Will Pep to a tie for first place in the OPEN Class. They both had really nice runs of 73. They split first and second prizes and took home $200 each.
Steve Lewis aboard Pistol Packin Catt took the honors in the Junior Class by winning with a score of 70. He pocketed $180 for his efforts. Winning $120 for second place, Justin Gibbs, of Muleshoe, rode Ever So Klever to a score of 69.
If you missed this event, check back on this blog for the next one. We are planning to have one in April and will have the date out as soon as possible. If you want to see what ranch cutting is all about, come out and watch. Admission is FREE! Besides, there was young man cooking burgers and hot dogs that could compete with any around!!!!!
