Summary
I'm currently a ranch hand at Open Gate Ranch i take care of 20+ horse and that consist of turning in and out and feeding them morning and afternoon. Jim the owner of the ranch has been teaching on working with my horse and working with his cattle. I've also help doctor his cattle. I've also been learning how to shoe and trim my horse's hooves.
I also work with my dad as his mechanic in his shop. I've been there since a very young kid and being running medium size equipment and workin as mechanic in the shop. I have alot of experience with people at the front desk.
I currently am working the summer at JJJ Wilderness Ranch where I am a wrangler. I help the ranch hand out, with such as helping keep up with projects around the ranch. I've have feed round bales with a larger skidloader.
