Boyfriend- Kyle Kukla She was a teenager by the time she moved with her family from Orange County, Calif., to Utah and learned to run barrels, but as a former Olympic hopeful in eventing, Kassie Mowry had already picked up the timing, horsemanship skills and steely mental focus she uses today on the barrel pattern. In fewer than 10 years, she’d nabbed world championships in the American Quarter Horse Association and the Barrel Futurities of America, as well as an NFR qualification. In 2001, on her gelding Cashyerchexatthebar “Bailey”, Mowry won the national collegiate championship for Western Texas College and the 2001 BFA sweepstakes and began training for Jud Little a few years later. In 2005, she qualified for the NFR on three fillies she trained for Little—Fire Waters Cash “Cee Cee”, Shebe Firen For Cash “Shebe” and Flitin Firin Cash “Gin”, on whom she won first and second at the AQHA World Show in Junior Barrel Racing. In 2006, Mowry, went into business for herself training barrel horses and relocated to a 40-acre spread across from a dairy farm near Stephenville, Texas, with her longtime boyfriend, calf roper Kyle Kukla, and four canine family members. |
