Holly & HR Rock'n Hickory's 2011 season!

Congratulations to Holly & BJ on their 2011 accomplishments. This duo qualified for the NBHA World Championships which will be held in Perry, Georgia . The pair also finished top 5 for their district. Holly said winning the 2011 Open 4D Championship Buckle for the Summer Sizzler Series was a huge highlight for the pair's rookie year. Holly is looking forward to the 2012 season.

Holly gives all the glory to Jesus for her accomplishments. Holly says none of this is possible without Jesus. “I thank Him every night for blessing me with talent & amazing horses which he has created . (1 Corinthians 15:57) Holly also credits her family & sponsors for many years of support and sponsorship.


Holly began riding horses at a very early age. Her history includes disciplines in Gymkhana, Western Pleasure, Western Performance and Halter. Barrel racing became her passion. Throughout the years Holly has accomplished many successes in her field including winning Top Barrel Racing Championships throughout California and the Southwest.

Holly has accomplished impressive titles over her three decades of competition. In 2007 Holly earned the International Barrel Racing Association California Open 4-D Reserve Champion. Holly also finished IBRA Top Dog and qualified for the IBRA California State Finals and the IBRA National Championship Finals. Holly also finished third for the Arizona National Barrel Horse Association 2007 Season.

Totaling all of the competitions Holly has entered since 1999, these are the results; 92% of all events entered have been first (70%) and second (22%) place wins! Holly has maintained a high level of success.
