About Us

All horses at Turnin 3 LLC get a lot of round pen and arena time. We also spend many hours riding outside in the desert, Davidson canyon, and mountains that surround our facility.   This helps develop a more balanced equine athlete keeping them alert and willing.   In addition, we spend time with our clients explaining equine care, training, and riding tips that encourage a safe healthy and happy human/equine experience.


Colter was born into the western and ranching life style on a large cow/calf operation in New Mexico.

At the age of twelve, he started training his first colt. Since that time he has developed natural training methods that build confidence and trust in the equine athlete without fear.

Many hours in the saddle and a lifetime of experience have provided Colter with a quiet easy way that horses respond very well to.

He has been featured in the Western Horseman, AQHA Journal, and Americas Horse magazines, and recently hosted four cowboy reality television shows.

At the 2010 Craig Cameron Extreme Cowboy Race in Arizona, he scored the fastest time in the obstacle course.

He now resides in Vail, Az. 

Jessica started her equine career at the age of eight years old. She excelled in western pleasure and halter classes. After four years she wanted a new challenge, and at the age of twelve years old she started barrel racing. She trained an old ranch horse for her first competitive barrel horse, and then moved on to faster horses and tougher competition.

Some of her accomplishments have been winning the open state championship in Nevada and Arizona for the AW4D and NBHA circuits. She was one of fifty girls nationwide selected to run in the Challenge of the Champions in 2003 and 2004.

During her short barrel racing career Jessica has won numerous buckles and saddles in the southwestern United States. Her light handed quiet riding style calms and builds confidence in her equine athletes. Jessica continues to compete and resides in Vail, AZ.
