Jackson lights up every winter with the Dixie National Rodeo—top stock, packed stands, and runs that make careers. Here’s why it matters and a barn-tested care routine that keeps your horses feeling good from slack to short round.
A cornerstone of Southern rodeo tradition, the Dixie National features PRCA/WPRA action across multiple performances—barrels, roping, roughstock, and more. It’s known for stout competition, great crowds, and schedules that test a horse’s ability to peak repeatedly.
Points, payouts, and pressure. Dialed routines and predictable recovery separate contenders from the crowd over a long week.
Classic rodeo energy—top pros, rising talent, and the kind of atmosphere that turns first-timers into lifers.
Haul smart, hydrate early, and keep feed simple. Short walks and quiet time beat busywork between runs.
Stops, turns, and quick accelerations stack stress. Build in hand-walking, stretching, and a steady cool-down.
Use sensation-free topical care after work so recovery calms your horse instead of lighting them up.
