Matt Zimmerman

Matt Zimmerman was raised on a cattle ranch in central Nevada, where he encountered mustangs on a regular basis. He earned an Agriculture Business degree from Oregon State University, and part of his degree led him to work at an Australian Cattle station training horses. After college, he eventually found his true passion and started his horse training business and has not looked back. Matt has competed in 26 Mustang Makeovers. He has won four Extreme Mustang Makeovers and been a Reserve champion three times. Matt also has had success in reining, trail, western pleasure, starting colts, extreme trail, EXCA cowboy racing, round pen challenges (winning 4), and creating ranch horses. Matt and his wife, Stacie Zimmerman, own and operate Zimmerman Horse Training in Caldwell, Idaho, and have been involved in the placement of well over 1000 mustangs. Since 2017, they have hosted The Mustang Mania TIP Challenge, finding homes for 670 mustangs. Currently, Matt is working for Forever Branded, a 501c nonprofit continuing to find homes for mustangs. He also hosts a wide array of clinics throughout the nation, helping horses and horsemen.
