I ride a horse that does both English and western and he does little crow kicks after jumps and when he gets excited. if it was just the crow kicks I could handle that but right after he crow kicks, he then takes off running. what can I do for this?

The 5 year old horse we lease for our teen daughter to ride bucks frequently, always when asked for speed, while running, or when she gently kicks(with no spurs!)to try to get him to run. He does it with a saddle, bareback pad, or totally bareback. This was a good article, but what about the western horse that bucks? This horse seems to enjoy what’s asked of him, & he likes my daughter, but I’m worried she’s going to get seriously hurt. She’s been riding him & training him since Sept. of this past year.

Great information. I have seen this happen at shows. There is a HC video where the rider actually makes it look easy. Amazing jumping and riding.
