Horse Training

To avoid getting bucked off a horse, take a lot of time reading the horse. The reason why people get bucked off their horse is they ignore what the horse is trying to say. If you get bucked off you missed the signs telling you that the buck was coming. Bucking, rearing, and running off are signs of a horse being emotionally immature and being pushed too far.


Once you have your horse safely saddled and feel confident in the horse's ability to carry the saddle and individual. Before getting on your horse you want to exercise the horse by doing circles. You make the horse walk, trot, and lope to help the horse breathe with a saddle on.  If the horse does great one day riding, the next day might not be so great. Horses and people are the same because we all have our bad days and good days. The next day might not go so well but as long as you exercise the horse you will be fine. Once you have exercised the horse you may get on and ride.
