"Sounds like common sense, but too many people avoid "embarrassing" themselves to get off the horse, OR could be too stupid to know that getting off the horse will help rather than harm.
Thank you for this reminder. Safety is always…"

jay hughes commented on Clinton Anderson's blog post Training Tip of the Week: There are a lot of heroes in the graveyard."Great wisdom there. Preparation and patience are the key to so much if not all of life. Dad always told me that while boating you could end up "dead right". Not much satisfaction in that."

Laura Hunter commented on Clinton Anderson's blog post Training Tip of the Week: There are a lot of heroes in the graveyard."Thank you for stating that!

Coming from a well-known and well-respected trainer this concept will hopefully have a more…"

I have used it many times, and have lost count of how many times it has probably saved my horse and me from potential disasters. It is nice to know that in the case that your horse becomes insecure, you can quickly…"
Ashley commented on Clinton Anderson's blog post Training Tip of the Week: Get your horse to use the thinking side of the brain."I think this is a very accurate opinion. Many people think that horses are prey animals and are not capable of making logical decisions, but they fail to realize that their natural instincts can be paired with a trusting relationship with their…"

A blog post by Clinton Anderson was featuredTraining Tip of the Week: There are a lot of heroes in the graveyard.
When I was studying under legendary Australian reining and cow horse trainer, Ian Francis, he used to remind me that there are a lot of heroes in the graveyard. What he meant by that was that too many people get on horses that aren't ready to be ridden and get bucked off. They break their necks and die because they don't use their heads. Preparation is the key. Groundwork exercises are designed so that you can get control of your horse's feet on the ground before getting in the saddle where you…See More
Profile Information
- A Bit About Me and my Horse(s)
- I'm from Australia and founded Stephenville, Texas-based Downunder Horsemanship in 1998 after moving to America in 1996. I'm a two-time winner of the Road to the Horse colt starting championship, a head-to-head competition between top equine trainers in which each uses his own training method to train an unbroken horse to ride in just three hours. In both competitions, my grand finale was riding the horse standing on its back, while cracking a stock whip. I try to inspire the dreams of all levels of horse enthusiasts with expertise and a no-nonsense, results–getting approach I call “The Method.”

Training Tip of the Week: Get your horse to use the thinking side of the brain.
Every horse has a thinking side to his brain, but until you show him how to use it, he doesn't even know it exists. The thinking side is shoved way back in the corner of the horse's brain. It's like a tiny crystal ball sitting on a table covered up with an old… Continue

Training Tip of the Week: Learn the One Rein Stop for greater confidence in the saddle.
The One Rein Stop is the first thing I teach every single rider in my clinics as soon as they get on the horse’s back. Why? Because once they realize that they can stop their horses anytime, anywhere, whenever they want, you wouldn’t believe the amount of…
