BUCK
BRANNAMAN

Horse Rush was
fortunate to be granted the only Buck Brannaman television interview and
rights to film his only clinic in Australia. Buck visits Australia once every
few years to teach and educate thousands of die hard horse fans and
Australian horse trainers in his phenomenal natural training methods.
In his interview
Buck opens up about his turbulent childhood, his teachers and discusses
some horsemanship questions.
Buck
was performing trick roping in television commercials at the age of six,
who has started over 10,000 colts in his 20 years of clinic work, and
who not only served as advisor on the set of Redford’s
The Horse Whisperer, but
was in fact the primary role model used by Nicolas Evans when he crafted
the best selling novel bearing the same name.
Buck’s goal for
clinics is to try to get humans to understand as much about their horse
as he can help them to understand.
“I
can’t be all things to all people. I’m trying to share with them my
experience which is obviously quite a bit more that my students. I want
them to understand the horse and where he’s coming from and in turn, his
life in general.”
Buck believes
people come to his clinics because they’ve already been in trouble with
their horse. They are sometimes afraid and have lost confidence. Buck
believes the only way to overcome fear and become confident is to be
able to learn more about the horse and where it’s coming from.
“After
a few days of observing a horse and rider, if that person has been with
that horse for a while, I know probably more about the person that they
would like me to know.” – Buck Brannaman
