19.01.2022 GOING IN CIRCLES When horses roamed the plains, they did exactly that: they roamed. They drifted along, grazing and mostly walking in straight lines. When horses worked for a living, they continued to walk those straight lines, pulling a plow from one end of the field to the other, pulling a milk wagon from one end of town to the other, or pushing cattle from one end of Texas to the other. As they transitioned from work animals to recreation vehicles, they generally conti...Continue reading

03.01.2022 Every reiner understands willingly guided with no resistance and dictated to by the rider. It's in the rule book. Everyone who rides a horse no matter the disci...pline, western or english should memorize it. It's what the judges look for. It's also the amazing feeling you spent thousands trying to find. Its therefore the goal of every horses develpoement. It's an end result. How it's achieved and what it looks like is a matter of constant debate due to perspective, experience, competitiveness, owner expectations, current trends, fairness in training, cultures, specific disciplines, additional requirements and even the moon. It can be forced, created, developed, instilled, rewarded, positive, negative, mental, physical, emotional or whatever else you can think of to achieve it. One thing it can't be is avoided. You have to go in search of resistance if you ever hope to eliminate it. If you truly want to reach your next level, no matter the discipline or personal goals, you need to become a resistance finder. It's impossible to become a horseman without knowing how to achieve it. Until you do, you're a babysitter and a passenger. Of course there are fair, ethical, and positive ways to get it. It takes longer. It looks better. There is a difference between intimidated and willingly. Yet you have to be willing yourself. You may have to go through ugly to get to pretty. It's called training with a clear vision and purpose. It's even been written down for us by a man who had the vision a long time ago. . What are you gonna do with it. I'd recommend discovering the benefits of willingly guided with no resistance and dictated to by you. Watch future posts in my thoughts of what it should look like and how to get it. #craigjohnson #letitrein See more
