Trail Tips
Need Trail Training Advice and Ideas?
Here are tips to help you achieve a safe riding experience, which really translates to “have fun with your horse!”
When riders are having difficult times with their horses, there is usually an obvious fix. The main reasons are disobedience caused from disrespect, lack of good foundation training, rider and/or horse are insecure, or obstacles were introduced too fast/too soon.
The fix: backtrack on your training program until you both are at comfortable level. There are holes to be filled!
Do the best you can, and appreciate that all good results take time. Exposing your horse to trails and obstacles in a patient, baby-step fashion will give you trustworthy partner.
And then, you get to enjoy that “fun” definition ….
Trail riding seems like such a simple pleasure…
In order to have fun on the trail, you must be diligent in making your horse safe. Riding smart and safe is of utmost importance. If your horse is not well-schooled in basic control, don’t even think about riding in the great outdoors.
To ride “The Trail to Success”, below are guidelines & tips to help you.
