Why We Ground Drive First

Ground driving is one of the most important things to do before you put the first ride on your horse.

Before we put the first ride on a horse we do extensive ground driving to mouth them out…soften their mouth and get them used to the bit. Because a rider can accidentally scare a horse during their first rides if the horse is not used to bit pressure.

He has made a good living all his life with horses. Bill achieved world wide acclaim with the “Tag Heuer Watches” magazine shoot when he trained a horse to jump from one rooftop to another four times in a row when no one else could do it and the horse enjoyed it! Bill’s training philosophy is a unique method based on the horse’s perspective. “This style of training produces a content and willing partner." Bill's riding skills are a combination of European Dressage and Western Riding in which he uses mostly leg.
