The Southern Ontario Cowboy

Tim Kemp

This Souther Ontario, small town cowboy started his rodeo journey when he was 19. He was introduced to the sport of Steer Wrestling and was instantly hooked. Tim gives us some insight into the world of steer wrestling, competing at the CFR and shares his experience competing along side big names.

Caleb Clingen ~ Clingen Quarter Horses & Farrier Services

Caleb Clingen along with his wife Chelsie (as well as daughters Chloe and Cara) of Clingen Quarter Horses, is a colt starter business focused on making confident happy horses with all the buttons to go on in any direction. Always searching and learning, Caleb loves to apply good horsemanship and understanding of the equine animal to accomplish this. The Clingen family also breeds, raises, and trains incredible barrel horses that have gone on to win throughout Canada and the USA. Caleb has a deep passion for the western equine industry in Ontario and has big dreams and goals to leave it better then he found it. It was great to sit down with Caleb and discuss his journey as a first gen cowboy!

Paul McSorely

Paul is a first gen Cowboy, who entered the scene a little later in life.. but is living the dream none the less! McSorely recently stepped down as Team Roping Director for the RAO. He felt he's was continuously putting out ongoing fires vs making real change. Although he has stepped down, Paul wants to remain an active part of the community and plans to continue competing. It was obvious that he had not lost his love for the sport or industry.  Paul has a mind for business, while holding that passion we all have for this life style. During the episode we exchange perspectives and trade ideas back and forth on the current roping world in Ontario, and where we would like to see it go (just like the rest of the industry). We agreed, that if we all work together, continue having ongoing communication, pursuing these open minded conversations, and keep trying new things, the pieces will fall into place and things will change for the better. I truly believe there is a way to keep everyone happy, and cater to every level and component of this discipline!  At the end of the day, we all love this sport and want to see it flourish here in Ontario!  Hope to see everyone is the arena soon! Keep spreading the good word friends, cheers.
