Letter From Cleve
Time flies when you're having fun! Another year has come and gone, but not without a lot of fun times, successful horse shows and meeting new friends.
2009 started in Denver and ended in Oklahoma City . We traveled to the Little Futurity in Raleigh , North Carolina , the Tom Powers Futurity, and the Southern Belle Futurity, the Reichert Futurity, the NSBA World Show, Scottsdale Classic and about 75 horse shows in between. Our horses and amateurs were circuit champions, reserve World Champions and 5 top 10 NSBA and AQHA World Show finalist. We are very proud of them.
We have enjoyed the Christmas holidays with our families. Tyler was home from vet tech school and Jana and I have a new grandson, Stone Grayson Armajo, who was born December 30th.
After the first of the New Year, it is “go time”again. The 2010 two year olds are coming in and things are already very busy. I have made several positive and exciting changes here at Cleve Wells Quarter Horses. We have added the addition of Shane Dowdy Show Horses and Andy Cochran Show Horses to our facility. Yes, that's right; the three of us are working together. Although each of us is an independent horse trainer, we help each other and that is good for all our clients and horses, “Iron sharpens iron”. We invite you to come by the ranch to visit, ride and to schedule clinics with us.
We have several nice horses for sale that we would like to keep in our barn, so come by and pick your horse, pick your trainer and join “our” team.
Good luck this winter and we look forward to seeing everyone at the shows and futurities.

AQHA World Champion trainer Cleve Wells of Burleson, Texas, who has guided numerous amateur western pleasure riders to the heights of success through the years (while garnering countless Congress and World Show wins as well himself), delves into what it takes to make it all work...

I would like to introduce a new training
tool, the CB
Training Rein. Designed by Clark Bradley, one of the greatest horseman
of our time. Clark shared the CB training Rein with me at the Congress
last year. Several training friends and I have been using this tool
ever since. We all feel the CB Training Rein has been an asset to our
programs. This tool allows you to have a soft entrance to your horse's
mouth and then has a stopper to catch the rein. After that, you are
working hand to mouth. It is like a German Martingale, but much lighter
and can be adjusted more accurately to fit each horse and their needs.
For those of you not familiar with a German Martingale, this is like
riding and having the best of draw reins and bridle reins all in one.
This is a must have for the beginner who is unsure in using their hands
all the way to professionals who are enhancing performance. Click
