Consistency Pays
Share Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest World champion Nellie Miller discusses how to be consistent in your horsemanship to win at the barrel race. By Nellie Miller with Kailey Sullins The older I get, the harder it is for me to remember how I was as a kid. Now that I have kids and interact with more children, I am remembering more and more of the things I used to do. When kids are growing up they have certain people they idolize, and I wasn’t any different.

The Theory of Barrel Racing with Nellie Miller
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest The process to success is something I think differentiates each and every one of us competing in this sport. For this reason, I have chosen to overlook this topic for some time. Success in the sport means each one of us has a different method to our training and preparation and not any one competitor is better, worse – or more importantly – the same. This topic is something that makes us all unique in our journey for greatness.

Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest The rodeo season has flown by faster than ever. There have been many exciting things going on this year and although barrel racing is my main focus, the breakaway roping has been one of my highlights.

A Day in the Life with Nellie Miller
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest By Nellie Miller with Kailey Sullins For me my life on the road and even at home seems pretty normal to me, but when we get into the busy times of the rodeo season like the summer run it can be different from day-to-day.

My Rookie Year - Barrel Horse News
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest Looking back on my first couple of years of rodeoing, it shocks me at how little I knew about rodeo.

On my first big trip away from home, I received a big education that will stay with me forever.
Straightforward Success
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest Nellie Miller explains her simple approach to a healthy horse and success on the road. One of the most important things I have learned in the past few years is that details matter. If you take care of the little things, the big things will take care of themselves. for “Sister” (Rafter W Minnie Reba) and I to have a good run, it is more about the small things leading up to the run than the run itself.
Take the Chance - Barrel Horse News
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest By Nellie Miller with Kailey Sullins I’ve been seasoning my young horse, Cowboy. He’s 8 and has been pretty green, but I felt like it was time for him to step up and be a horse. Getting out of your comfort zone is sometimes uncomfortable and even scary – for both you and your horse, but taking the chance and stepping up is always worth it. When I was writing this Cowboy had been to only two amateur rodeos and I placed in one of them.
A Risk Worth Taking
Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Pinterest Self-improvement is not an easy task to take on. As humans, we have a tendency to think we have all the answers. It’s almost like it’s a sign of weakness if we don’t already know everything. It can be a challenge to push those feelings down and be open to other views and opinions. But when it is the right mixture of positive criticism and open mindedness, then really great things can come out of it.
