How's the Christmas shopping going?  Anyone done?  

Hello Mr. Boatwright,

I joined your membership a couple months ago. I've been applying what you teach in your videos. I'm noticing my horses are more relaxed and receptive over all. They weren't bad before it's just that little difference.

I do have a couple questions for you. My 3 year old is the type of horse that sometimes doesn't stay in front of your legs like you talk about, and he's getting worse. He's not lazy his speed control at a walk and trot isn't bad, but still needs work. When I go into a circle at a trot to bring him back to me or put him back because he drift off he goes about a quarter into the circle and stops trotting then won’t get back into the trot till I go straight again. I cluck and squeeze him he just won’t trot. Not sure what I did to create this issue. Do you have a video or any recommendations to help fix this issue. I can do very large circles but need to peddle him a lot to keep him going. Sometimes It feels like he's really board.

Also, I was wondering if you do clinics?

Thank you for your time.

Phil

Headed home today!  Can't wait.

Vegas is cool but I'm missing my family, my home, and my horses right about now.  That trip home will be sweet!

Grundy and Niko wish everyone a happy holiday season and a Merry Christmas!  

I stopped by the World Series Team Roping today to check it out.  My plan is to come back next year and rope on Hot Wheels.  My partner, Jake Milton, said he'll come rope with me. I can't wait!!

Anyone planning a trip to the NFR?  Or just watching on TV?

We went to see Ned Ledoux last night!  It was epic.  Here's a shot of the interior of the limo that gave us a ride.  Thanks to the Wright family for asking me to join them!🤠

If I manage to make a video this weekend, what is the process for getting it reviewed?  Post it here?  Upload to Youtube and send a link to the email?  Thank you!

We have an App, hes about 10 now. A FB kill page rescue (eye roll). He has food issues due to he was about a 2 when we got him and sick as a dog. Hes tall and athletic now. He gets impatient and wound up if you dont get him in quick enough to eat. He tries to push the fence down or toes up to jump it and has. Charges the gate and if you dont get open or really firmly push him back he will bolt over you. I tried working with him making him back and stand until he licks and chews and it was working until he decided now to attack the fences and go around me. Also, my farrier and I have messed with him to try to get him to let us hold his feet for a trim. I can tap his canon and he will let you pick it up on the first ask, but wants it right back and weve hung on with all we had to try to keep from reenforcing his habit but hes alot. Not sure if hes claustrophobic our just a jerk, he has a calm look in his eye when he does it.. So we have to stick him to trim every time. Theres times he takes on an aggressive stance bowing his neck and pushing his mouth against my leg and Ive given him the chance to bite if he wanted and me ready to deal with it but he backs off, maybe im just reading him wrong, ive handled a few studs and have seen that before tho and been bit. Even the other horses get tired of him and run him off because hes ill mannered.. Hes secure tho and I keep him away from my wife and all because I dont trust him. But theres other times he can be really sweet. When he gets bracy and wound up hes a pain. The other 8 are great and more often than not Id rather play with a good horse than fight with him. I just know if something happened to me hed end up in a bad spot or hurt someone if I dont try to help him. I dont plan on riding him unless theres a drastic change of attitude me being 64. He bucks like a pro and would definitely shake your salt. I can get him to yield fore and hind no prob and he is mindful on a lead. Just after a min or so he gets bracy.. Im stuck with him in more ways than one.
