S2E3 Phillip Ralls, Part 1 – Choosing the right approach for your horse

Finding The Feel

Phillip Ralls’ love for reined cow horse and showing began at the young age of 8-years-old when he showed his first bridle horse. From that moment forward, Ralls focused on improving himself and his horses. At the age of 36, Ralls became a National Reined Cow Horse Association million dollar rider. Ralls has ridden many special horses throughout his career, including One Fine Vintage (One Time Pepeto x Shiners Siena x Shining Spark). One of his recent accomplishments was aboard multiple NRCHA champion and reined cow horse sire Call Me Mitch. In addition to being an accomplished horseman and NRCHA Million Dollar Rider, Ralls’ list of accomplishments includes three NRCHA World’s Greatest Horseman reserve champion titles.
