The Journal
Whit Hibbard, a fourth-generation Montana rancher and protégé of the legendary Bud Williams, will conduct a one-day, intensive workshop on low-stress stockmanship in Dolores.
The daylong class will be held from 8 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Thursday, at the Dolores Public Library, 1002 Railroad Ave. It will be hosted by Tim McGaffic and Ginny Chase Elder of the Nature of Natural.
Hibbard, publisher and editor of the Stockmanship Journal, brings an appreciation for scientific rigor, critical thinking, evidence-based rationality and empirical research skills to the study of working livestock. He’s a decades-long student of low-stress stockmanship, horsemanship, ranch roping and facilities design.
Hibbard’s classroom-only workshop in Dolores will focus on the foundations, principles, techniques and applications of low-stress livestock handling, all based on the work of Williams.
Cost for the workshop is $250. For more information, contact Tim McGaffic at 808-936-5749 or tim@timmcgaffic.com, or visit www.besthorsepractices.com/whit-hibbard-low-stress-livestock-clinic.
