Join host Doug Simcox as he takes you Beyond the Chutes, the podcast that dives deep into all things Western—rodeo, cutting horses, reining, ranching traditions, and more. From legendary competitors to rising stars, from historic rodeo moments to the behind-the-scenes heroes, this show gives you an all-access pass to the world of Western sports and culture.
In this episode, we welcome Michael Walton, a cutting horse expert, to discuss the 45th Annual Augusta Futurity. Michael shares insider knowledge on the history of cutting horse competitions, the breeding and training of elite horses, and what it takes to compete at the highest levels. We also explore the mental and physical demands of cutting, the importance of bloodlines like Highbrow Cat & Metallic Cat, and the evolution of the sport from ranch traditions to modern-day competitions.
