Sue's philosophy is
"The only place SUCCESS comes before
WORK is in the dictionary!" You hear that often when you take lessons, camp, or ride with Sue. She is extremely serious about teaching & training and expects her students to share that level of interest. She LOVES horses & the people who love them, and she strives to perfect them as teams.

Coyote Crossing also features special guest trainers and clinicians several times per year.

Holly (Shook) Attick has been riding since she was two years old, and competing almost as long. She learned the timed events from Sue, but she also had hours of English riding and jumping lessons, and she interjects that training and knowledge into her timed event riding. Holly has won 15 Palomino World Championships in barrel racing, pole bending, stake racing and team penning. She has also placed in the top ten at the AQHA World in these same events many times. In addition, she and her best friend Jet won the Timed Event Challenge in Pole Bending, which is in conjunction with the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo, two times, each time running the fastest time that had ever been run in that competition. Just before Patas Pancho Villa was sold, Holly and he had made a 14.7 second cloverleaf barrel run at the fairgrounds arena in Seguin (see video), and they had won the 1-D at an NBHA competition in Gonzales. Holly is a graceful, confident, competitive rider, who quickly bonds with a horse, winning his confidence and devotion. She finishes most of the Coyote Crossing horses.
