David George Horse Training

This is our 5 year old Blue Roan- as of January 1st. We call him Tag, but his registered name is Hancock Hand.   He has about 90 days on him now and is super gentle.  He has been let set in the pasture for up to 2 weeks and then pulled out and thrown a saddle on him and he does great.  He doesn't have the buck that Hancock's usually do.  He is a special horse, smart, gentle and nothing really gets him amped up.  He gets along well in the arena or outside. Gets gates fine, wrangles horses fine, has tracked cows a little and roped the dummy off of him.  He goes well in the hackamore or the snaffle, although with the cold weather, we've been riding him pretty regularly in the Hackamore and he is really soft to it.    

You better snatch this one up while his is still there. 

Call or email if you are interested.

This Bay Mare is a fantastic horse.  She is gentle and done almost everything.  She has been ridden in almost everything, Snaffle, Billy Allen, Floating Spade, Hackamore, 2 Rein, and Bridle.  She has been roped off of, doctored yearlings, branded with her, and used her for ground working colts from horseback.  We’ve used her to wrangle other horses, pony other horses to the barn, and to rope hind feet on colts to make them good to shoe. She’s been tarped, flagged, crosses water and gets gates easily.  She would make an excellent horse for an intermediate kid or a woman rider.

This is our classy alamar knot bracelet with rawhide buttons instead of kangaroo. This also has the tassels out the back, which are optional.  

This is a kangaroo bracelet with black spanish ring buttons, one as an accent and one as a keeper for the pineapple button.  It a
cts as a keeper with no hardware.  This is a soft, 2 strand bracelet and would be a great gift.

This bracelet is a lot like our standard 2 strand bracelet except it is a lot thicker. The thicker ones are great and very sturdy.  This is all black with a brown ring button and a brown pineapple button.

This has the same color contrast as the thick bracelet.  It is thinner string and more petite.  This is a feminine bracelet, and is made in multiple sizes. 

This is our standard bracelet with a brown ring button in the middle. This is the perfect accent to make this bracelet a must. 

Kangaroo braided 4 strand bracelet.  It has a pineapple button on the end and a ring button that works as a fastener in the back.  This is a great leather bracelet, strong and sleek. 

The Foundation Level covers all the early training that goes into a top notch performance horse.  Les shows you how to create softness in the neck and body control with an easy-to-follow, step-by-step approach.  Plus the material in the foundation level isn’t just for reining and cowhorses, but can improve your performance in any discipline.  Les has received sensational feedback from riders telling him that their barrel, horsemanship and even dressage patterns have improved dramatically after going through the program with their horses.

David still enjoys watching these DVDs and continually gets new things out of them that he can use on his horses. 

The Maneuvers Level takes the great foundation that you’ve created and shows you how to continue to develop the fast turnarounds, lead changes, speed control and sliding stops that you’ll want to compete in reining or working cowhorse classes.  Again you’ll see Les in actual training situations on horses that are being introduced to the concepts for the first time.  You’ll learn how to identify where problems are coming from, and give you the tools you need to tune up your performance.

David recommends the Maneuvers Level as a next step for those who have gone through the foundation level.  This includes help for those who want to show and how to get your horse ready for the showring. 

This is David's preferred Snaffle Bit for starting colts.  This is by Jeremiah Watt and is his regular Egg-Butt snaffle.  It is made with a full 5 inch width sweet steel mouth with plenty of Copper inlaid.
