Shay Carroll with Another Big Year-End Win

Heel-O-Matic Training Systems — Tue, 01 May 2012 20:08:20 +0000

Congratulations to Heel-O-Matic Pro Team member, Shay Carroll, who finished off his sophomore year of college with another all-around year-end regional title! Shay joined our team last summer and takes practicing very seriously, focusing most of his efforts on ensuring his horses are working honestly and scoring well. Here’s his Facebook post following his big win,

‎”2X Central Rocky Mountain Region All Around and Heeling Champion. It takes an entire support group to accomplish things and the people who support me are the best. Thanks to everyone especially my coach, my header Tyler Schnauffer, and most of all my dad! Nothing would be possible without them!”

We’ll be rooting for Shay as he competes at his second CNFR in June, just before taking off to his first BFI!

Bradley Harter Joins the Heel-O-Matic Pro Team

Heel-O-Matic Training Systems — Tue, 01 May 2012 18:02:52 +0000

Professional saddle bronc rider and avid team roper Bradley Harter joins Heel-O-Matic on the Pro Team. Bradley lives in southern Louisiana and is a six-time WNFR qualifier. It’s hard to miss Bradley with his infectious laugh, persistent will, positive attitude and consistent way of finding his way to the pay window.

Bradley states, “When I am not on the road riding bucking horses, I am team roping. I do a lot of training on young horses, while also roping competitively. I really believe that your [Heel-O-Matic] products benefit my roping.”

We’re pleased to add another hard-working professional athlete to our team and wish Bradley the best of luck on both ends of the arena this year! Be sure to add us on Facebook as we stay up-to-date with our Pro Team and post results from rodeos and jackpots around the country.

Testimonial: Craig Flanders

Heel-O-Matic Training Systems — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 21:28:41 +0000

Are you getting to rope your machine outside with this early spring? Craig gave us a call the other day to tell us about how he is getting along with his Heel-O-Matic. Here is his email in its entirety:

Anthony,

We are loving our new heelomatic. I owned a Hot Heels previously and tried most of the machines on the market prior to deciding which one to purchase this time. I chose the heelomatic because I thought it was a more realistic hop and the turning radius allowed for a much snappier corner. It has far exceeded my expectations in a number of ways. I’m getting additional practice because my wife and two daughters aren’t so scared to drive for me since it trails perfectly, doesn’t jerk the driver around so much and stops when you stop. I like having the freedom of taking it to other arenas with me since it actually fits in the bed of my truck. The video was a great bonus and the tips from Dusty Watkins helped me work through some issues with a young heel horse that I had been struggling with recently. Thanks for going the extra mile to deliver a great product.
