Tom BoyleLarry,
Great information. I am starting a Boonsmal colt that is really put together and a smart little dude. I am excited about his potential. I want to get the cow work going on him soon. I am going to use him for multiple events if, he has the mind for it. Do you recommend I work on the reining training first or start tracking cows and get the cow work down. I don't want to confuse him but if I break the training up every other day and take it slow will I be putting to much on him or will it benefit as he is doing new things all the time and it will keep him from getting board?
Thanks for the information. I have always been told to make a horse cross over in a turn. Now I understand why.

sheree nagelHello larry! I love your news letters! You are so veryhelpful in all aspects of my horse training. I have a 14 year old gelding that refuses to rollover on his hocks. I read one of your letters and I'm pretty sure its not my hand movement. I keep my hands out in front of my saddle at all times and only move my elbows. Any other thing it could be?
LarryTrocha@sheree nagel: Hi Sheree. Yes… it could be sore hocks, sore back, sore stifles or sore suspensories!

wade hancheyHi Larry,
First of all I would like to thank you for your quick response to my question, you are by far the only one to ever answer my question this quickly. Others have been weeks before I got an answer. I am glad I found you.
When will the new video be out on Inner Circle, in regards to the head-shy problem?
Thanks again, Wade
@wade hanchey: Can't say for sure, Wade. I'll be sending out an email when it's ready.

I have a 4yr old Rocky Mountain that had 30 days put on him and when we got him I didn't have this problem. Unfortunately we couldn't ride everyday and he was idle for about 3 weeks, now I can't even get the headstall on him, every time I reach for his head he throws his head back and just refuses to let me put the headstall on. I had to use a twitch to get it on. Even trying to put a halter on him he does the same thing. Any suggestions on what is wrong or what am I doing wrong?
@wade hanchey: Hi Wade, You aren't necessarily doing anything wrong.
Some horses are just naturally head-shy, while others have been made that way by previous owners.
I shot an hour-long video of me fixing a horse with this exact same problem.
Unfortunately, its not ready yet but will be on my new Inner Circle website soon.
By the way, 30 days of training is almost useless… sometimes even detrimental.
It causes a trainer to rush things because he has only 30 days to get the horse going.
I'd rather not send the horse to a trainer at all than send him for only 30 days.

bill mauklarry i'm a thoroughbred horse broker in lexington, ky..have been riding all my life and just in the past year started riding reining horses…always thought i was a good rider til i got into this…love the reining but am finding out how many bad ridiing habits i have..just watching and listening to you has helped a bunch..thanks for the articles..i like things explained in depth and you do that for me…will order some tapes soon..thanks…
MariaThank you for all your training Tips. They have been so helpful.. I am having trouble trying to get my 3 year old to soften and give to the bit. (I am using a D-Ring snaffle) Especially to the right.. When I rein-release, he doesnt even feel it so I have to bump him harder every time. He now has small scar tissue-like bumps forming on the corners of his mouth. Im worried that I will make his mouth hard if he continues like this. I cant begin to turn him on his haunches because I cant get him to that point!
Any suggestions you can give me would be so appreciated!
Thank you!
KelcieHey, I've been reading your newsletters for just a little while now but they've helped quite a bit. I'm 16 and my family is by no means professional horse trainers so I definitely need all the help I can get. I'm putting a couple months on a 4 year old mare and thanks to your tips she's comin along good. I haven't been subscribed to you very long, so sorry if you already addressed this problem, but one thing I'm havin difficulty with is her headset. She likes to keep her head jacked up in the air and it's affecting how she rides. How do I get her to have that nice rounded headset? Thanks again

KateHi Larry,
I've really enjoyed your emails full of great information that is both simple to understand and realistic. Keep up the good work!
I have a monkey on my back. I'm from Iowa and lately there seems to have been a recent influx of chiropractors and acupuncturists. Some DVMs and some not. These chiropractors seem very popular with the dressage crowd around here and its even trickling into the trail riding world. I had a bad experience with one chiropractor who was not a DVM and she basically told me that my horses jaw, poll, shoulders, withers, hips, and legs were needing work. I didn't know how to take what she said and was turned off even more when she asked me if I ever "tuned into my horse".
My 6 y/o QH mare had a saddle fit issue that we resolved last year and then I sent her to a reining trainer this year for a 30 day boot camp to get her going good. He didn't seem to think there was any soreness limiting her physically.
My question for you is who do I believe? The chiropractor, or the guy riding her? And what is your take on chiropractic work?
Appreciation in advance! Thanks Larry.
@Kate: Hi Kate. I can't tell you who to believe. I know plenty of horse chiropractors and I know plenty of horse trainers. The ones who have the knowledge and are competent professionals can help you and your horse a lot. Unfortunately, many of them are incompetent and only talk a good story.

Tamara KiddI've been doing reining for a long time and doing team penning on the side just for fun, and I never knew or even heard of that difference in the sliding stops. It makes perfect sense. Great info. Thank you!
