| I attribute a huge amount of my success to Ty Tuff. From the fundamentals of goat tying, to horsemanship and mental attitude, Ty Tuff has been an essential part of my rodeo career. I believe this is the best way out there and I am thankful I have been with Deb and Kayla from the beginning. | ||

Our daughter, Kennedi Kautzman, has been working on goat tying for the past two years. Prior to receiving instructions from the Ty Tuff staff, her interest level was at a minimum. However, after attending a half day clinic with Kayla, we discovered that she had a new found interest in becoming a better goat tier! Since attending that first clinic, Kennedi has attended a two day clinic in Killdeer and two day clinic in Mandan. It has been fun to watch her confidence increase and her times decrease. Deb and Kayla’s professionalism and knowledge are like no other. They have a straight-forward yet caring approach to teaching the techniques necessary to become a champion. With their help, Kennedi has now won her first buckle in goat tying and looks forward to being competive in the years to come. As parents, we would highly recommend Kayla and Deb to be on your team. We have seen so much growth in such a short time and it is easy to trace that growth back to the strong foundation that Deb and Kayla laid for Kennedi. |

To give our 4 daughters the best chance at being champion goat-tyers we take them to Deb and Kayla twice a year. It has been amazing to watch what they have accomplished under Deb and Kayla’s tutelage. If you want to become a winner then I would highly recommend going to the Ty Tuff clinics. Our girls have won and placed consistently thanks to Deb and Kayla’s hard work and dedication to making their students the best. The skills that can be gained from these clinics are undeniable. You walk away with a positive winning attitude and the skills to back it up. Our girls are always sad when the clinic is over and hungry for their next rodeo. |

| The TY TUFF dummy is the most realistic practice tool available to a goat tyer. I've been using it for 10 years. It has helped me perfect my tie without wearing out real goats. As a coach, I bring TY TUFF dummies to every practice. When a girl is having trouble keeping her elbow out or her tie smooth, the TY TUFF is the answer. I highly recommend it to any goat tyer who is serious about being fast and consistent. From beginners to experts, this is the best dummy there is for a goat tyer. | ||

| I highly recommend the TY TUFF goat tying dummy to all levels of competition. The dummy is amazing because you can work on so many different fundamentals at all levels of tying. The TY TUFF goat tying dummy is built tuff, it is portable and its body structure makes you feel like you are tying a real goat. I have had my TY TUFF for 10 years now and it is still intact. I take it to rodeos to help me warm up for an event or use it as a learning tool if I am having problems with one specific step in my run, from body position to gathering and tying. It goes to the practice pen and even in the house on and off season. I use it often to practice the little things or fundamentals in my run. I believe this is what it takes to be successful, “the little things”. The TY TUFF goat tying dummy has been worth every cent and more. If heading to a rodeo, jackpot, or the practice pen, (I have even taken it on vacation with me), I don’t leave home without it!! | ||

| The TY TUFF goat tying dummy is amazing. Goat tying was not very popular in Manitoba when I started High School Rodeo but I really liked it. A friend got me started tying on a TY TUFF and soon after I got one of my own. I tied my dummy almost everyday. You can set it on the basement floor or just about anywhere. I would never have been able to tie the way I can without my TY TUFF. When I graduated and started putting on clinics I knew the only way that my students were going to learn the proper way to tie would be with a TY TUFF. All the girls were amazed at how much it was like a real goat. As a result many of my students have gone on to buy dummies of their own in order to perfect their tie. Any success I have had goat tying I owe to Deb and the TY TUFF goat tying dummy!! |

| The TY TUFF dummy has been a great tool in improving my goat tying. Not only has it saved my goats from unnecessary use, it has allowed me to practice tying whatever the weather and wherever I am. Further, the TY TUFF dummy has improved my consistency and confidence because I am able to break down and work on every aspect of my gather and tie. I would recommend this tool to all levels of goat tiers who are interested in improving the speed and consistency of their tie. | ||

| I attended a TY TUFF Clinic a few years ago and after my very first clinic I had taken 5 seconds off of my time. I didn't want to lose all the ground I had just gained so I got a TY TUFF dummy that I could continue to practice my tie and flanking during the off season. I've found that one of the biggest benefits to my TY TUFF dummy is that it has given me confidence in my tie to be tight and fast. I load it in the horse trailer for every rodeo right along with my strings, this allows me some warm up practice without having to take a goat. If I had to pick a down side to my TY TUFF dummy is now I have to share it with my little brother who uses it as his calf tying dummy too. | ||

| The TY TUFF dummy has really helped me get mentally ready for my runs. I usually just tie it a few times before I go in the arena. It is easy to use, doesn't take up much space, and best of all it doesn't eat much! I would recommend the TY TUFF to anyone just learning and all of the way up to the college level. | ||
