Ricky Quinn Clinic - Thoughts Part 2




Ricky Quinn – Part 2

What’s the wrong with you horse type people!

One of the key learning’s I had over the last four days is how much people screw up their horses. I mean honestly. Ricky was working with horses over the weekend and the key theme I heard was :


1. You should not be riding this horse.

2. You should not buy a horse because of its color.

3. Did the horse do this when you bought it? No? And you wonder where it came from? You!


Duh...

4. You need to get down to the feet. You need to get a change. Otherwise your just building a problem.

The other things that happened and I wont name names, is that we were riding, and some of the riders were you know, being boss mares with each other, and then I looked over to someone and said, and you wonder why the horse is screwed up! LOL, they started busting up!. But you know, its not funny.

Its not funny at all.

How people can take a perfectly fine horse, a good natured, animal and turn it into a psycho, glitchy, screwed up thing….

That’s about the worst thing a person can do…

Your horse is a mirror, to you…

The other thing is that even good riders get bucked off. Even experienced, people who ride every day, get bucked off… Part of the issue I see is your so caught off guard you have no time to recover. No time to react. Damn!

So all in all… Take a look at a persons horse, then reflect for a moment on the person, and think to yourself, is that horse a true reflection of the person?

I think 100% of the time, they are a perfect mirror of what that human put into them… a perfect mirror…


HiHo!
