Barrel Trainer- NE Ohio
This is really a longshot, but....
Two years ago our farm's stallion was sent to a small facility to be broken out. It was in Alliance, Ohio, and I cannot for the life of me remember the name of the place, the owner, or the working student that actually broke out the stallion. It's on the same road and very close to Mt Union College; in fact it's on the same road as the football field (you could see it from the barn). The working student was a 19 year old guy (so now he'd be 21) and he did an AMAZING job training. He placed high in AQHA Youth show the previous year in Barrels and Poles, and was qualified for the world show at the time he was breaking out the horse in the same events.
The reason I ask- sure, I could drive an hour out of my way and find the barn and go ask if the same people are there, or I can hope that someone would know maybe what I'm talking about and help me out. The working student was so good with the stallion that I would love to recommend people at my barn who have tried so many other people with terrible results.
Thank you for any help, even though this is like such a vague post. I want to say the WS's name was Brandon or Brendan or something like that, but I really don't remember.
