| Has anyone ever ridden in a Josh Andrews Clinic? Thoughts? He is from Arkansas. If the horse I am looking at next weekend works out, I am considering the clinic. He is coming to VT where I am from.

| He’s so arrogant on Facebook that there’s no way I’d go to his clinic. His whole Scamper Cole meltdown was so unprofessional that he was a huge turnoff for me at that point. I hope you enjoy it though. |

What was the Scamper Come incident? I'm new to FB. I haven't signed up for it yet, just saw it on FB yesterday. It's $175 for two days. |

He’d gotten a horse from her with issues. I don’t know the entire back story on the horse or the problems. But he posted a video of him loping the horse through. As he’s loping out of the arena, he looks into the camera and screams, “TAKE THAT SCAMPER COLE!”
It was just beyond tacky. Especially for someone who is trying to hang out a “professional “ shingle.
Plus he hasn’t accomplished anything other than an American qualification. I’d go spend money with someone who has actual experience and not just a cult like following because he talks about how good he is and people listen. Maybe he is great. But talk is talk and actions speak for themselves. |

Ironic, as a friend bought a horse from him with major issues. Talented horse, but blown up. |

| When did he quit being a horse trader and start being a clinician? 
Someone do tell about this SC meltdown. I know nothing of his personal life or friend circle only his horse trading. |

Location: Conway Arkansas | As much as I don’t have time to sit and address all of you I will address the following.
What have I done? Well I have sold a horse that won $350,000 at the futurities for $1500. I have sold horses for 10k and under that have won 1D, world titles and more.
The most common issue I find in “horse trading “ is the issues riders have let horses get away with. I have only trained a handful from start. But I have fixed multiple horses.
I did make th 2018 American semi finals, how many of you have accomplished that? Unfortunately my horse got hurt 6 days prior to it. I ran a 4yr old I had 4 months of training on. She ran right there with the salty horses.
Those who wanna say what I have sold, have you asked those buyers for a contract? All my horses are sold with a contract.
I sold a horse TWO weeks ago, he was very strong, made a 1D run before he shipped out. Buyer stated she was a fabulous rider, for $6500 she owned this horse. She also owned a contract stating the horse was strong, he needed to have a good farrier, he also needed to be ran on some type of calming medication. I also stated he had hocks and stifles injected 2 weeks prior. Now before you see an amateur tell you I sold them a crazy horse. Be horseman enough to know that barrel racing for me is a competition. The fastest times win. I wanna be as much of a winner as I can be, for that facet I will do as whatever the previous owner did that was successful,
I’m sure most of these negative comments are from keyword jockeys that have WON THE NFR and the American.
I strive to sale a horse that a person who has a $2500 budget can afford or one that will qualify for the American bring $250k.
For anyone in or round Vermont the end of July. It’s MY HONOR to tell you this. Come to my clinic, come and know there will be no bullying, I assure you. I will not cast nude my as most have done on me. Most of all come FOR FREE. If you don’t learn anything then you don’t owe me a penny. I’m going to Vermont to help, to give my knowledge hoping to grow the very small sport there.
Also one last thing before I go ride another horse. Be sure to know this, I feel sorry for some of you. Until you have directly done business with me please be aware of all the situations. Sincerely josh. If you need me call or text 501-733-8528 or for horses go to my FB josh Andrews horses |

Location: Conway Arkansas | I’ve learned there isn’t any sense in getting mad. I’ve been bashed by more keyboard jockeys than anyone. All I say is work harder and you can get off the keyboard and into a real horse! Lol |

Location: Louisiana | For $175, I'd go. There is always SOMETHING to learn from everyone...sometimes the smallest tip can make the biggest difference. Sometimes you just need a different set of eyes watching you. Not only will you learn from the clinician, you will learn from every horse and rider present.

Completely agree. Anytime you can ride with someone else you typically leave with knowledge of some type that will be useful. And riding at a clinic usually means some new horse friends, too. |

Location: Texas | For $175.00, I'd definitely go. I remember the "Scamper Cole" incident - had seen that horse locally and he was a blown up mess. I just think Josh called it as he saw it. |
