“How Well Does Your Horse Turn?
It’s a simple question really.
How well does your horse turn?
Is he sluggish?
Does he move off your leg like you’d
move your hand off a burning hotplate?
I find most horse owners have horses
that are in between.
Frankly, if your horse doesn’t turn
lickety split, then that’s not good enough.
Why?
Because he’s not being responsive to
what you’re asking.
He could also be dull…meaning when
you use a little leg pressure he may not feel
it like you’d think.
So whaddya do to fix this?
I have a great solution.
I urge you to look to the Reining
trainers.
Why?
Because their horses turn like crazy.
If you ever saw a Reining horse turn,
you’d see turns and spins like nobody’s business.
It’s awesome to watch.
Thing is, not every horse is going to
turn & spin like a good reining horse is.
A good Reining horse that does it well
is built for it. He’s athletic in the sense
that he can do these maneuvers well.
Does that mean your horse can’t do it
if he’s not built for it?
Heck no!
Your horse can still do it but maybe
not as good.
And that’s okay.
The crucial thing is getting your horse
to do it and you learning “HOW” to get your horse
to do it.
When we filmed Chuck Nesmith showing how
to get a horse to turn and spin and sliding stops,
he gave an incredible, easy-to-follow, step-by-step
method.
Chuck’s training regiment starts with every
training the same. He’ll flex them whether they’re
2 or 20.
He’ll do it for 2 year olds to establish a
safety stop. Once a horse matures, flexing is done
for other reasons.
After he’s done this (and other warm up stuff)
Chuck starts getting into the meat of the lesson.
Chuck warns to keep it basic and simple as
possible.
He says, “I’m just looking for the horse to
be able to go forward, back, left, and right. Nothing
fancy.”
His little secret is this:
“He wants to guide them!”
That’s what it’s about really. Guiding.

For example, if he’s working the horse and
he feels the horse leaning to the right, he’ll steer
them to the left.
If the horse is responsive and moves right
away, he’ll let him go straight again.
Chuck doesn’t baby sit the horse where he
has to hold their face all the time either.
And here’s another secret Chuck reveals.
Allow your horse to make the mistake. When
he does, “then” you can correct it.
If you don’t allow them to make a mistake
then they start relying on you for everything. Then
if you get nervous they’ll know something is wrong
and they’re going to act up.
So the more you get your horse to guide, the
more confident they’ll become in what they’re doing.
And your horse (and you) need confidence.
In a couple days, I’m going to give you an overview
of how Chuck gets his horse turning and spinning.
Oh…and if you think your horse doesn’t
need to know this then you would be wrong.
Why?
Because it builds respect for you in your
horse’s mind.
Because it teaches him to pay attention to
your more.
Because it makes him more valuable.
Because it makes him more responsive.
And because you learn priceless ways to
get your horse doing things you never thought you
could.
An ohhhh what a feeling it is to get your
horse doing cool stuff like this. (And it’s not
as hard as you’d think)
This is something I “know” you can do and
I hope you try it.
