Download or read book Hackamore Reinsman written by Edgar N. Connell and published by . This book was released on 1994-07-01 with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HACKAMORE REINSMAN by ED CONNELL, first published in 1952, is a hands-on manual of instruction that describes in detail the use of the hackamore and snaffle bit. He takes green horse and trainer from the first bosal and ground-pulling to the point that the horse will slide and whirl on the hackamore. Ed's method is pure "Californio" having descended from the Moors and then the Spaniards who brought this training to the New World, developing the hair-trigger reined horses found in California. It is the Spanish method of breaking and training a horse before it is ever bitted. The focus is on making a finished hackamore horse with an untouched mouth. It emphasizes the art of reinsmanship as practiced, developed and perfected by the Old Californios and remains the bible of all books on hackamore training. Connell's 2nd book, REINSMAN OF THE WEST -- BRIDLES & BITS, gives the WHY and HOW of making a spade bit horse out of the hackamore horse, using the methods of the Old California Vaqueros. It explains how to choose the right bit and how to use that bit to get the most from your horse. Website: www.hackamore-reinsman.com.

Book Down the Fence

    Book Details:
  • Author : Al Dunning
  • Publisher : Western Horseman Book
  • Release : 2015-06-07
  • ISBN : 9781493001743
  • Pages : 0 pages

Download or read book Down the Fence written by Al Dunning and published by Western Horseman Book. This book was released on 2015-06-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Down the Fence addresses one of the most popular, most intriguing and typically least mastered aspects of the stock-horse world--handling cattle in the competitive cow-horse arena. Although cattle work fascinates many Western riders, unless they have ranching backgrounds few even know where to start when it comes to boxing, fencing or circling a cow in competition, much less how to help their horses master those skills. Al Dunning fills this void by guiding readers--and their horses--step-by-step through the cow-horse world. Although the book considers the sport itself, a legacy from the California vaquero tradition, as well as the requisite horse and rider skills in the event "dry" work, Dunning focuses primarily on the cattle work--how to read, rate and control a cow, hold one here or send it there--all with the horsemanship skills and show savvy only a man of his experience can share. In addition to Dunning's expertise, Down the Fence includes cow-horse commentary from some of the industry's great horsemen. Many have claimed multiple world and futurity championships and are Hall of Fame inductees. Among them are Bob Avila, Brad Barkemeyer, Corey Cushing, Todd Bergen, Todd Crawford, Bill Enk, Bobby Ingersoll, Don Murphy and Doug Williamson.

Download or read book Ranch Roping written by Buck Brannaman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2009-01-13 with total page 145 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ranch roping is at the heart of all ranch work, and unlike the rodeo variation of calf roping, the “vacquero” tradition calls for techniques that result in a skillful and graceful throw and catch. Buck Brannaman, a world-renowned master of the art, describes the essential tools, the partnership between horse and rider (incorporating the Natural Horsemanship approach for which the author is famous), and the mechanics needed to become a successful ranch roper, whether in competition or in actual cattle work. One-hundred full-color photographs of Buck in action enhance the step-by-step methodology that leads to mastering this essential Western skill. Whether you ride or rope or just wish you could, here’s a book for everyone who is captivated by Western traditions and contemporary life.
