As a designer, Jeff with Prime Performance Nutrition is one of my favorite clients. What makes Jeff so fun is the fact that I almost always get to see our final product in the wild. Below, you’ll see our design file, then a shot Jeff sent us with the product, the subject, and himself at the NFR in Las Vegas.
PJ NFR Banner Final
Prime Performance Nutrition Banner with Jeff and PJ
Thanks Jeff, for keeping us up to date!
Prime Performance Nutrition team member PJ Burger turned in an outstanding performance in Omaha, Nebraska at the WPRA Tour Finals where she earned the money necessary to secure a place at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo (WNFR). Winning $8,623.78 in Omaha, Burger competed at her 69th rodeo of the year, making her total 2009 earnings $57,060.72.
Taking second place in the first go with a time of 13.96 seconds and tying for fifth in the second go, Burger was third in the average. Competing with Fancy Man Perks, “Perky”, she was up against some of the world’s toughest barrel racers and most competitive horses, many of which she will see again at the WNFR in Las Vegas, Nevada on December 3-12, 2009.
“Everyone at Prime Performance Nutrition is thrilled with PJ’s success. Only 15 women get to go to the NFR each year and we’re proud to say that one of our team members made it! We can’t wait to see her perform in Vegas,” says Jeff Butler, president of Prime Performance Nutrition.
Competing for the World Championship Barrel Racing title, Burger will compete against the fourteen other WNFR qualifiers, one of which is her mother-in-law and World Champion Barrel Racer, Mary Burger. While making it to the WNFR is many a young barrel racer’s dream, this is one dream come true for PJ Burger.

eZall, producer of the industry’s leading plant-based grooming products, invites a select number of elite equestrian competitors to be a part of Team eZall. Welcomed as eZall’s newest team member is top international dressage rider Shawna Harding.
When asked what Harding likes about eZall, she says that she loves the eZall Foamer and Total Body Wash because it not only makes washing fun and easy but it’s also a plant-based product.
“My wash rack feeds water out into the yard and I love that eZall is a bio-degradable, natural product,” says Harding. “We have a lot of natural waterways under the barn and farm and I like knowing that I’m not harming the water or ground. Not to mention that it’s really good for your horses!”
Extensively studying in Germany for nearly a decade, Harding has worked under some of the world’s best and most influential dressage trainers. Through her combined experiences and participation in the equine industry at a world-wide level, she has built her career as a top international dressage rider, trainer and coach.
“Shawna is not only a outstanding competitor, she’s a great instructor and trainer. She holds the same communication and business values as eZall and her international experience makes her an even greater asset to Team eZall. We are extremely happy to welcome her as a new member,” says John Collet of eZall.

Road to the Horse Chooses Henry Patton as Official 2010 Artist
While artists across the country submitted samples of their work in hopes of becoming the Road to the Horse 2010 cover artist, it was “a horse of a different color” that caught the eye of Road to the Horse owner and producer Tootie Bland. Artist Henry Patton’s “Blue Horse” series, based on a Navajo legend, will include an original painting created for Road to the Horse and will be presented to the Road to the Horse Champion at the event in Murfreesboro, TN on March 6-7, 2010.
“A Navajo legend tells when the skies are blue and clear, Johano-ai, the sun god, is riding his favorite, strongest and most valuable horse - the blue horse. From this came the idea of a blue horse in every pasture, barn, show and anywhere horses hang out when the skies are blue and clear. For me, the blue horse signifies what is great about horses. They are hope, wisdom, gentleness and beauty all rolled into one. Blue horses have that feeling of a day with blue skies, clearness, and a bright future for all animals,” says Patton.
A former professional photographer and graphic designer, Patton uses his previous experiences to capture horses in a more modern, abstract and colorful way with a combination of watercolor, acrylics and oils.
“All of the entries this year were just outstanding and having to limit myself to one is like eating only one piece of chocolate. I do want to thank everyone and congratulate them all on the outstanding entries,” says Bland. “The Blue Horses of Henry Patton are simply fascinating, beautiful and inspiring and I am thrilled to have this talented artist and his Blue Horses represent the essences of Road to the Horse this year.”

Olympic gold medalist and international eventer Phillip Dutton says he relies on eZall for the grooming needs of his elite show horses. With a never-ending show schedule, Dutton and his personal groom are always on their toes when it comes to his horses’ health and well-being.
“We go to a show almost every weekend and have a lot of horses to groom. My groom is always trying new products and one day she tried eZall. When I found out that eZall made such a big difference in the horses, I decided to form a relationship with eZall and become a team member,” says Dutton.
Hearing of eZall for the first time at the Rolex Kentucky Three-Day Event, Dutton’s groom says she was excited to try out the new product.
“I heard about eZall by word-of-mouth through another eventer. I am always looking for new and better products because I bathe the horses and prep them for each show. I love the way eZall makes their coats feel because it doesn’t strip out the natural oils and leaves a nice luster,” says Emma Ford, Dutton’s groom.
Whether riding at home or competing at Rolex, Dutton stresses the importance of proper care. With the help of Dutton’s favorite eZall products including eZall Total Body Wash, Shine & Detangler and Anti-Allergen Shampoo, he says he is able to properly care for all his horse’s grooming needs.
“If you care about the way your horses look and feel, it’s worth trying eZall. I’ve seen what eZall products do and the difference really shows up in the way they look. You’ll see it will make a real difference,” says Dutton.
