I second Amy, but I think she focuses more on futurity colts. Great trainer and great horsewoman!  |

I third Amy Laymon, I've heard she uses Jed Ward to do the initial break out sometimes and she finishs the horses out. She is a great lady! |

Im sure you have checked for soreness? That is where my mind goes when there is a gate issue. |

Location: Kansas | I was going to suggest Jeanne given that you're in NE Kansas. Someday I want to ride a horse trained by Amy Laymon though - everything I've seen her ride has had some wicked turns.
Others that come to mind but aren't as well known as Jeanne (but then again, who IS? LOL) are Tami Hoch near Great Bend, Katie Larson at Manhattan, and Amy Prather near Wichita. I know Amy's on the road rodeoing quite a bit this year but she has some experience with fix-it projects. |

I'm starting to figure out that when she is due for the chiro to come out, she will refuse the gate.....unfortunately the doctor is booked out a month, her appointment isn't until july 25th. I'm assuming it is a pain issue for her. |

Never send anything to Jed Ward. Unless you're wanting to pay for 30 days of training for one ride. |
