More quotes by Buck Brannaman
You allow a horse to make mistakes, the horse will learn from mistakes no different than the human. But you can't get him to where he dreads making mistakes for fear of what's going to happen after he does.
Buck Brannaman
Your Horse is a mirror to your soul.

Don't get on a horse that's moving.

You can accomplish amazing things with this if you have a passion and you work hard - I just think it’s a cop out to say 'I wasn’t born with this, so it’s OK if I fail'. You can make up the difference with hard work and devotion.

I take the horsemanship very seriously and I treat it with the same integrity that one would any of the fine arts.

It’s not about how much pressure you put on, it’s how good you are at taking it off.

Some guys make their careers off one horse kind of a trick horse, a wonder horse. I'm not knocking that, but for me I'm trying to get better and study. That means taking out new horses. It's a life study. When I've finished a horse, I turn him out and basically stop riding him, except taking him to the occasional branding so I can enjoy him.

The comforting thing to the horse is, is as you become more and more accurate, he knows you’re aware of him, and pretty soon because of that he’s aware of you more and more of the time.

You can't look forward and backward at the same time...........so I choose to look forward.

I started to realize that things would come much easier for me once I learned why a horse does what he does. This method works well for me because of the kinship that develops between horse and rider.

Horses are incredibly forgiving. They fill in places we're not capable of filling ourselves.
Buck Brannaman
Nobody has to lose for me to succeed and that is a unique job. Everybody wins, horse wins, people win, I win.

Horses are very sensitive and perceptive. You don't have to be physical with them.
Buck Brannaman
Horses aren't lazy and they're not greedy and they're not jealous and they're not spiteful, they're not hateful. They're not that way. But the human can sometimes only describe a horse in the way that they view other human beings.
Buck Brannaman
When you see a horse that’s troubled, you sort of feel sorry for them, yet that doesn’t mean that you wouldn’t still ask the horse to behave and find a way to fit in and respond to you as well.
Buck Brannaman
In nature this animal would have nothing to do with you. Natural horsemanship is just words. It's not natural at all. There's an abundance of trust that must be developed for you. Imagine if humans were that pliable.

Whether one was going to have a horse, or a dog, or a child, with that comes a great responsibility to raise them.
Buck Brannaman
Solutions to problems often come from knowing when to ask for help.
Buck Brannaman
You don't have contempt for a horse that's troubled. Everybody has baggage, everybody has things that they've had to deal with in their life, and it can be something positive depending on how you use it.
