Danyelle Campbell steps on her 4-year-old, He Dares The Devil, to focus on building confidence ahead of the BFA, breaking down how she’s shaping his approach to the first barrel. During the session, Jordon Briggs brings out a hackamore for Danyelle to try on the stallion, sparking a deeper conversation about training without a bit.

Jordon adds her perspective on why she works horses in a hackamore as well, emphasizing that every horse should spend time in one, even if it’s just on a trail ride.
