In this fast paced industry, Matt and Cami both feel that it is imperative to promote a fun, family oriented atmosphere for their customers. At Claypool Ranch, the primary concern is the well being of the horses and their owners. Matt grew up showing Quarter horses and is experienced in showing events from reining to halter. His first job was working with Shawn Flarida training reining horses. He soon found his true passion was showing and training halter horses. He began working for Randy Jacobs, where he fine tuned his skills on preparing and fitting world class halter horses. In 2003, Matt decided to make his dream come true and open the doors to Claypool Ranch. Cami began in the industry at the 4-H level and then moved on to Quarter horses.
