Richard Winters Horsemanship
Based Just outside of Weatherford, Texas

In 1981 Richard moved to Salinas, California, to join the Hartnell College Intercollegiate Rodeo Team. His rodeo career was short-lived. However, God brought him to Salinas to meet a young pretty strawberry blonde girl that in a few short years would become his wife. Richard and Cheryl have now enjoyed over 35 years of marriage. Richard is quick to say – "There are a few things that I can do that Cheryl doesn't want to do. There are a thousand things she can do that I don't know how to do. That's a pretty good team. "Cheryl might not have said, "yes" had she known exactly where our 35+ years was going to take us. However, she has been a constant source of help, encouragement and strength that has made Richard Winters Horsemanship what it is today.
Richard and Cheryl have two grown children who both married in 2014 and are living successful lives. The younger, Sarah, followed in her dads footsteps. Even as a toddler, Sarah never wanted to do anything but ride horses. Richard will tell you that the roles are now reversed and Sarah is his greatest teacher. 

Sarah and her husband Chris Dawson run a successful Reined Cow Horse business in Perrin, Texas. Chris has reached the Million Dollar status and Sarah is sitting number six rider in the National Reined Cow Horse Association. Together, Chris and Sarah are known as the power couple!

​Joseph is the eldest and Richard will tell you, “Joseph is my own personal superhero." Joseph is a Rescue Swimmer in the United States  Coast Guard. He's the guy that jumps out of the orange and white helicopter to save you when you're drowning.

​The tattoo on his arm says it all. "So others may live.” Joseph’s wife Lorin is a Neonatal Nurse Practitioner, working at Stanford. Both are outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy hunting and surfing. The Winters and Dawson’s are very quick to say, “We are living the dream!”

Richard and Cheryl are blessed to know that their children love God, love their spouse and still love mom and dad. Life doesn't get any better than that!

We purchased a horse from our daughter, Sarah Dawson, named Shine Smarter, better known as Juliette. Sarah continued training Juliette and together they made the finals at the NRCHA Snaffle Bit Futurity in 2015. They also earned the Reserve Ladies Championship, Limited Open Championship, Reserve Intermediate Championship and placed 5th in the Open Division. 

The following year while riding our horse, Dual N Tom Cat, better known as Tom Tom. They placed 5th in the Open and won the Intermediate Open Championship.

​This winning team was also the Southwest Reined Cow Horse Association Open Reserve Champion in 2016. To have our daughter make it back to the finals two years in a row was outstanding!
