  Hello from the Josey Ranch!

We always have something exciting going on at the Ranch: Barrel Racing or Calf Roping Clinics,
the famous World Champion Jr. Barrel Race or our fun filled Reunion Round-Up for former students.

We have a large selection of quality horses, saddles and equipment for sale year-round.

Make plans to attend one of our clinics or week long schools. Make new friends and benefit from the experience we've gained through years of competition.

Visit with Mark Burt from Mark's Video Production (call 817-599-6275) about purchasing your tape of the two fast runs from the clinics. There is no obligation to purchase.

Horse Health Papers: The State of Texas requires that out-of-state horses have a 45-day health certificate. All horses, either out-of-state or in-state, must have a 12-month negative Coggins certificate. You should consult with your vet early, as it takes about ten days to receive Coggins test results. Please present these papers when you check in at the Ranch. It is advisable to have your horse in good physical condition prior to the clinic or school. For the protection of your horse, we also suggest that all vaccinations be current.

Horses:  Students must bring their own horse. One stall per student is available.
            *EXCEPTION: All Around School and Camp

Stalls:  Unlike many other facilities, Josey Ranch does allow you to request stalls.  While we make every attempt to stall you where requested, this is not a guarantee.  Be sure to make your stall request when registering for the clinic as they are already assigned before check-in.  Stall requests cannot be made or changed at or after check-in.  Stalls in the covered arena are not available during clinics.

Feed: Students must bring their own feed, hay and other equipment needed for their horse.

Tack: :Please bring saddle, blankets, bridle, hay bags, two (2) feed buckets, small plastic buckets, and any other equipment needed for your horses care.

REFUNDS: IMPORTANT!
Deposits will be refunded if requests are in writing and postmarked NO LATER THAN TWENTY-ONE DAYS PRIOR TO THE START OF THE CLINIC.

SPECIAL NOTE: FOR SAFETY PURPOSES, DOGS ON LEASHES OR IN YOUR TRAILERS PLEASE.
