See you here in the NF+ community this weekend — and good luck, Boyd!
Congratulation Tik. So proud of you. I really enjoyed meeting the crew at the Noelle Floyd booth this weekend. What a super group of ladies!
Colt breaking- Wylene Williams- amazing! I love all your people, but maybe add her to the lineup if she could
Office hours with Tik?
Hello, I was just wondering if that was awarded to anyone. 🙂
We were able to catch up on the final last night after coming back from the barn. Road to the Horse 2025 was a master class on what to do and what not to do. Tik demonstrated the balance of how much to push and when not to push to achieve maximum performance on a particular day.
I’m stoked Tik is showing the WESTERN world that natural horsemanship, observation, communication and my favorite.. PLAY are building blocks to success!
We are so excited that our very own Tik Maynard has won Road to the Horse for the second year in a row! Thank you to everyone who joined us this weekend — whether you were hanging out in the NF+ watch party threads or stopped by the booth in Lexington, it was so fun to cheer Tik on with all of you.
And good news: we’re extending your chance to win a private 30-minute Office Hours session with Tik! Everyone who comments here in RTTH forum between now and April 7 will be automatically entered. We’ll pick a winner during our April 8 webinar with Tik on NF+!
