Opis

Pat Puckett has spent more than 30 years refining his relationship with horses. As a cowboy and rancher, horses have been more than just a means of transportation. They have been partners. Over the course of his lifetime, Pat has had the opportunity to ride with some of the best reinsmen and cowboys in the West. Early on, he developed a passion for the Californio Bridle Horse, the highest compliment you can pay a horse. The classical origins of this heritage have given Pat a unique viewpoint and the ability to communicate effectively with horses and riders of all disciplines. In this book, Pat takes on the subject of transitioning the mature horse to the bit. With step by step instructions, you will be guided along your journey of learning to ride your horse through your body rather than mechanically through your hands. What you'll find in these pages is "put your left hand here, put your right foot there" directions about how to teach your horse to tune in to your seat and legs. It includes a list of exercises to do on the ground and in the saddle along with guidelines that tell you when you should move on to the next step. With Pat's signature sense of humor and no nonsense, cowboy-style directness, this book will prove to be an invaluable tool in your quest to become a better horseman.
