101 Ranch Horse Tips Techniques for Training the Working Cow Horse

A well-trained, responsive, and intelligent working cow horse is more than just a pleasure to ride or watch in action; such an animal is an integral part-- a prized employee, if you will-- of a ranch's work force. How to find and then educate the horse to work cattle in pens and on the range, to negotiate a variety of terrains, and to perform all the other tasks it will be asked to do under a variety of often adverse conditions is the subject of this handy guide. Written by an experienced rancher and horse trainer, 101 Ranch Horse Tips will show you ways to start a young horse or improve an older one in ways that can apply to performance and enjoyment on or beyond the cattle ranch.Hooks, Patrick is the author of '101 Ranch Horse Tips Techniques for Training the Working Cow Horse', published 2006 under ISBN 9781592288786 and ISBN 1592288782.
