do drafts buck...?
YES THEY DO.
I have heard.
Many people have said they can buck quite hard if they wish to.
No drafts have ever bucked like
this with me
and Never one that is just being broke.
It is the more seasoned horses that
are usually the sneaky culprits.
They have far more confidence and experience dealing with being rode.
So what should you do when a horse bucks?
In most cases it usually only means the horse
has not being rode enough.
Therefore, either you should:
Add 15 minutes onto the end of
each lesson
or more preferably
Add an extra session onto their daily session agenda
to keep their brain
engaged and their curiosity level peaked.
For example
if i am riding a horse that just has
too much energy,
I will increase their daily agenda from
2 sessions a day
to 3 sessions a day
and if that still is not enough I will make it four.
Green horses rarely muster the courage to buck.
If they do...it usually scares them much more than anyone.
Yes, you should discipline them
but it is not the end of the world
and you should not even miss a beat
.Just keep riding.
30 days of training
done by a highly skilled professional like myself
will easily cure even
the most determined hoppers, skippers, leapers, and buckers
. Most do not intend any ill will,
it
is simply a very fun, and amusing game
to them resulting in not being rode by an irritating rider anymore.
This is why I have always tried to get my horse to enjoy a good challenge
.The only way I have found
to do this...... is to:
Simplify lessons into quick, Simple to understand
and very
easy to accomplish correctly
by the horse …so they quickly develop confidence
resulting in no hesitation
to execute my commands.
The sign of a good trainer is this….
The horses they
ride are always
calm,
confidant
and never look over stressed
like you see some of them chomping
frantically on the bit
and stressed look in their eye,
mentally screaming for help.
Praise
horses are naturally a loving affectionate animals.
When
we attempt to communicate with them,
it is best to do it on their level
that means with
kindness,
reward,
and praise abundance
regarding every little detail
and effort they give
no matter how bad they flubbed it,
remember, they will get better and
they know it.
Allow every horse to be different from one another.
A smart trainer uses
this to their advantage...
to show their diversity as a great trainer.
If you try to conform,
a horse to your style of training…
you will destroy their
unique individuality and spark of character
each one of them posses.
A good
trainer knows
horses are designed to look, act and think different from one another.
bucking
is a prime example of a horse that does not like its rider.
not always...dont panic.
it also often means they
like to be a bully.
usually when a horse bucks the rider stops doing whatever they are doing.
this is good the horse
thinks. i like this.
sometimes the girth is hurting the horse.
make sure you always check it every time
you ride.
its the main reason i use leather girths.
if your horse bucks and it scares you..
find a trainer
immediately.
don't mess around with this little game.
it soon turns into a weapon the horse uses to defend itself
un-necessarily of course.
once you go thru 30 day with a high ranking pro trainer
you will know how to handle
this situation
money well spent i'd say.
questions..?
