Welcome to The Common Horseman

ANNOUNCEMENT:

The arena at Bob and Ginger's "Let's Ride Ranch" was badly damaged last year from straight line winds. It was totaled, moved 3 inches off the foundation. Until the arena can be repaired/rebuilt, Bob has decided to do one day away clinics, trail riding lessons, fair training demos and a 30 session training at Let's Ride Ranch, or hourly training with mileage away from home. We have updated our website to accomodate these training options.

Bob and Ginger appreciate your patience while they work to rebuild their arena.
