Over the years, Tyler has had the opportunity to work for some very talented, experienced trainers including Natalie Weichel, Wayne Latimer, Clay Webster and Rod Thiessen. This has enabled Tyler to gain knowledge in starting, training and showing horses with much success in three different disciplines- cutting, reined cowhorse and reining. Tyler has won over $400,000 in these three disciplines combined. Currently, Tyler mostly focuses on the cutting discipline with the occasional cowhorse added to the mix.
