Modern Horseman's Countdown to Broke: Real Do-It-Yourself Horse Training in 33 Comprehensive Steps

A complete "beginning to end" training program that establishes respect, trust, and a foundational skill set in your horse, no matter their age. It's time to get real—that is, real, do-it-yourself horse training. Professional trainer Sean Patrick has created the ultimate guide to the complete riding horse—whether a performance, working, or just-for-fun prospect. Quite simply, you begin at Lesson Number thirty-three and count your way down through the basic exercises—the primary education—every horse needs. And when you get to Lesson one, you've done it; you've prepared your horse for advanced work in any number of equestrian disciplines. You can't get lost along the way. There's no room for confusion. Sean clarifies the point and explains the gist of every step. The happy result? He trains you to be a trainer. Whether your horse is a foal or five, guilelessly green or imperfectly veteran, he will benefit from the Countdown—a true foundation program, serving to prepare him for the endless variety of activities and jobs horses perform today. From indispensable handling, sacking-out, and tying exercises, to how you, the rider, can control the different parts of the horse's body from the ground and the saddle; from mounting on both the left and the right to performing flawless flying lead changes, you'll be amazed at how effective and efficient this program is. "The exact steps to take when training a horse for any discipline." —The Horsemen's Yankee Pedlar "One thing is certain, if you want to start and finish your youngster correctly be sure to add The Modern Horseman's Countdown to Broke to your collection." —Riding Magazine
