With his 40+ years of experience reading cattle combined with his easy going manner and great patience, he has become a favorite with non-pros who want to learn to work a cow.  Whether it is the rider, horse, or a combination of the two, he can help fix it. Roger started out as a cowboy. When trainers such as Ted Robinson, Scott Weiss, and Ron Ralls started coming to the ranch where he lived to work  their horses on fresh cattle, he started asking questions and paying attention.  Those lessons have paid off.  Roger has since become a well respected reined cow horse trainer.  Contact Roger Bias at 661-378-8207  or email him at rogerbiastraining@hughes.net Russell Dilday Dilday Ranch Home of Topsails Rein Maker The Dilday Ranch is located in sunny Porterville, California on the banks of the Deer Creek River in the heart of the San Joaquin Valley.
