"I can probably be classified as a clinic junkie since I have attended so many over the last 12 years. I just want to say that I think Richard is one of the very best. He is a great communicator with an excellent program. I especially benefited from the Advanced Program. It showed the fundamental weakness that I presently have and gave me several new things to work on and exposed areas where I am needing to improve. In addition to being an outstanding horseman Richard is a person of uncommon character." Tom Austerman, Serenity Golden Quarter Horses
