Missouri Stock Horse Association

  • Support and promotion of the broke all-around horse.  Events & contests will test the stock horse skill level in a ranch-style
    environment, not an artificial show arena.

  • Events & contests will reward the ability of the rider to communicate effectively with the working horse in an educated manner

  • Clinics and practices will be offered to aid in improving horsemanship skills and assist the rider in enhancing his horse's strengths
    as well as understanding & minimising the horse's shortcomings

  • Cattle classes will be the foundation of this organization. The primary difference between this and other ranch-style associations will
    be number and variety of working cattle classes..

  • Show events & clinics will be made as affordable as possible.

  • Contests and events will be structured so that each is completed in one day.  Whenever possible a clinic will be conducted the
    evening before a show.
What MoSHA can offer in the future
What MoSHA will offer in 2012
    Cattle clinics & practices are scheduled on the following Sundays:
    April 15th---May 6th---June 10th---July 8th---August 12th

  • We're going to work on cattle events in 2012.  We want to know how to read & influence
    cattle and we want our horses to develop their cow sense too.  So we're going to
    concentrate solely on cattle clinics in 2012.

  • MoSHA encourages members to join Missouri Team Sorting Association (MoTSA) and
    attend their Novice Draw & #2(Beginner) Classes on Saturday afternoon.  (These classes
    are offered at reduced fees.) Missouri Stock Horse members can Sort together in the #2
    class or watch & discuss.  Then, stay over Saturday night.  Hook-ups and stalls are
    available or a "country motel" is nearby. Sunday morning you're right there and ready to
    attend the Cattle Clinic, and work on mistakes you saw (or made) the day before.
