Every day at Bonina is a kaleidoscope of unique activities. It often starts with a warm welcome to a client for lessons on cattle. Those sessions evolve into training…we are always training: colts, young horses, finished horses and riders.
CLINICS – BOOSTING SKILLS & CONFIDENCE
Clinics are a very popular way to advance horsemanship. Information is consolidated and provides an opportunity to learn at a new level. Riders form friendships and support that carries to the show pen. Bonina hosts clinics focusing on cutting showmanship, trail riding competitions and barrel racing.
CUTTING SHOWS
Bonina Event Center brings cutting horse competitors from across the nation and Canada. They appreciate the good cattle, good ground and friendly atmosphere.
TRAIL & VERSATILITY
Bonina regularly hosts these contests because they are a natural fit for the performance horse and rider – as the nature of the ranch is exactly what other contests emulate.
BARREL RACING
Bonina hosts barrel races and barrel racing clinics at the Event Center which draws a big crowd of racers of all ages. In winter they use the indoor arena and the summertime circuit finds the outdoor arena teeming with fast paced barrel racing events.

HORSE BREEDING PROGRAM
The Bonina breeding program is intense and aims to pair up excellent broodmares with top cutting horse stallions. Each year there’s a new colt crop with sires like Stevie Rey Von, Smooth Talkin Style, Dual Reyish, Sanctus, Rollz Royce, and Metallics MVP. Colts may have new owners before they are weaned or during their yearling year. At two, the colts enter the training program.
BONINA’S CATTLE FEEDING ENTERPRISE
