Description
Denise began riding horses as early as she can remember, with barrel racing and pole bending being her favorite horse sports. She has been fortunate to be teamed up with some tremendous horses over the years, and together they have made quite a team.
In 1979, at age eleven, Denise became the youngest member ever to win the Utah Barrel Racing Association (UBRA) Rookie of the Year Award (now known as the Novice Rider Division). She was also the Open Pole Bending Champion that year.
At age eleven, Denise began training her first barrel horse, Saddle Kan. Two years later, Denise (age thirteen) and Saddle Kan (age four) were ready to take on competitors from all across the western United States in barrel futurity competition. At that time, a futurity horse was any horse four years old and under who was in its first year of barrel racing competition. Male or female riders of any age were allowed to compete in futurities, and no distinction was made between the riders (ie. There were no youth classes or Amateur Rider divisions available).
