Reser's quest began when his mother followed her love for them and bought their first horses when he was about 5. Reser coined him and his family back then as "weekend warriors," traveling to various 4-H and open shows. (His former 4-H leaders attended this year's U.S. Nationals to support him. They too have horses in training with him now.) After about five years as a professional trainer, Reser had been showing horses at local and regional shows and was always on the hunt for good horses. He was working hard to get his foot in the door. It swung wide open in October 2002 when his hard work culminated with a unanimous championship with Ima Rock Star in HA/AA Western Pleasure Junior Horse. "It was everything I had dreamed of when I was a kid. Of course, that moment went too fast," Reser says. Since that national championship, Reser always strives to train his best so he can experience multiple moments.
