RICHARD CALDWELL Vaquero Methods of Horsemanship. Transitioning past Riding in the Hackamore. Hackamore to 2-Rein. 2-Rein to Bridle. Rein Work, Working Cattle. PURPOSE FOR THE CLINICS I feel that there is a need to preserve and bring back the true Vaquero methods of horsemanship and horse training. These clinics will focus on helping the rider make transitions from snaffle bit to hackamore, hackamore to 2-rein, 2-rein to straight up in the bridle. Riders will learn the methods I use in training my horses for rein work, working cattle, and just everyday riding. Riders will learn traditional equipment use, the reasoning for their use, and proper rider etiquette. Riders will receive a better appreciation and understanding of their horses, equipment, and themselves. There will be something to be learned for all levels of riders and horses . |

I attended Richard's clinic held on Father's Day at his place near Alturas, California. Though I have ridden ranch horses since I was 16 months old (I'm told) this was my first clinic (I'm 61). My horse is fours years old and has been in my good Bill Black-built hackamores (3/4" and 5/8") since December. My goal is to follow the traditional bridle horse training methods 'til he is a finished spade bit bridle horse in two-three years. I loved the clinic!!! My horse is dramatically improved. I am dramatically improved! I recommend the clinic for anyone wanting to achieve the highest level of harmony and communication with their horse by using traditional Vaquero training techniques. Richard Caldwell is not only a master horseman, he is a master teacher!!!!! From Nancy Caldwell....check out our web site on the internet. Check Nancy and Richards new site for updates from now on....congratulations Nancy!!!! This is her v ery first web site and she has done a terrific job!!!
