Scott and Susie Wilkerson, found us on the internet. They are  from China Spring, Texas. They  wrote:
I have had two Jack Holden horses (so far), both have been exactly what Jack said they were.I have taken advantage of Jack's knowledge of horse training and roper/rider training on more than one occasion.With Jack you don't have to just buy and leave,you can buy with the confidence that most any problem that may occur is just a phone call away.My only regret is that Jack doesn't live down here in God's country!
 

The Welborn's from North Carolina, wrote this thoughtful email, after returning home from a week here, in April. Cody made a fine showing at the High school finals this summer!

Jack, Thank you for much for all you did for us and Cody. You helped Cody in so many ways. It made a big difference in every aspect of his roping and horsemanship. You took him over the hump and out of his slump. You went above and beyond for all of  us, and I just can't thank you enough. Cody is using what you've taught him daily.  All of us, including Snoop Dog made it home fine.  Thanks again.
 
This past spring, we sold a horse, "FLASH",  to Dax Rattan, and almost immediately he started winning, cash, buckles, 2 saddles, and 2 shootout spots in OKC.   

I am proud to say I recently purchased a horse from Jack and Lisa and he is definately paying for himself in the roping pen. I was very impressed with the way Jack represented the horse. I have never been on a horse with more flex and keys than the one I bought. I will definately be buying more horses from the Holden program.

Thanks, Dax and Nita Rattan
 
Mike and Jan Hebert , friends from Louisiana, sent a nice note

I met Jack 25 years ago in Sulphur. I watched the way his horses, and Team Roping horses rode and performed. I bought 7 head over the 8 years he lived there. One was a barrel horse that Lisa was running by the name of "OKIE POWER BILL". Talk about broke! In the AQHA, he had a Superior in English and Western pleasure, with a R.O.M. in barrels, and my wife, Jan,  won the Amature Horse in Louisiana. He lived until he was 32.   My son and I learned alot about how necessary good horsemanship is, in team roping, as Jack put on several clinics at my arena. What so many t.v. personalities are teaching now, is what Jack taught us 25 years ago!

 
Tim Weil a new customer and friend wrote a short note....He has made great strides in his horsemanship and roping, and we appreciate his business!
Dear Lisa, I wanted to send my thoughts about your program...Jack is one of the best horsemen I know.  He trains people along with his horses, and stresses that horsemanship is the key to success.  I just thought I knew how to ride and when I bought two horses from Jack, I have learned way more than I realized.. It has paid off with confidence and  winnings!  I know if I had a question or a problem, I could call, or visit and Jack would go out of his way to help. I am sold! Tim
 

Hey Lisa, I wanted to be on your "Customer page", so I am sending a few lines...

20 some years ago, we wanted a bomb proof horse for our girls, and we bought a mare, sight unseen. You brought her up to us, and she was all you said, and MORE...She gave our daughters the confidence and foundation to be excellent riders...Then last summer, we decided we were ready for another horse. The one we had bought here, just could not hold a candle to yours, and we kept trying, and hoping. We gave up, and sold him . Anyway, we drove down and got a gorgeous mare,just a long 2 year old.  We couldn't believe how nice she rode, and myself and my daughter have enjoyed her so much. We rode trails and some hunt on her. You would think she was 10!  And her future is just looking brighter and brighter... I guess I should go back and say, I met Jack when I was just in high school, thru the Lowry girls. I was around when they were going gangbusters and winning everywhere, due to Jacks tutoring...I bought my first horse from him a few years after that.  So, now I am on horse number 3 and when the day comes, that I need another, you will get another call!   Mary
 

Gary and Mary Kay Brooks from Hailey Idaho: TRAIL RIDERS

 
Gary and Mary Kay are long time friends and customers of ours from when we all lived in Iowa. When they were ready to replace their old, or deceased horses, they made a trip to Oklahoma.  Two of our best roping horses, that rode like bridle horses, became their trail horses. And they have enjoyed them ever since. There isn't a place they can't ride them, they go with a willing heart and mind. We only wish we could take the time to join them in one of their relaxing rides...Maybe in 2008!!
 
Trail Rider in the Black Hills of South Dakota loves her new gelding

Jolee Snyder, from Rapid City, dropped a few lines:

Merry Christmas to the Holdens!  I wanted to tell you the gelding, whom I call DEETS, is working so nice. We had a fresh snowfall, and I bundled up and threw on his saddle. He acted like he had been over that trail many times before, and had I not gotten so cold, I would have liked to ride a few more miles. He is all I have wanted and more. Can't wait for spring tho! Thanks again, Jolee
