[QUOTE="clampitt, post: 366565, member: 2594"] I have a groundwork program called 40ys of making a living with horses and training winners,AQHA.WPRA,PRCA.Youth rodeo as well.I worked for four world champions in three different events and have been to four AQHA finals in Calf roping and breakaway.I have two books given to me by Ray Davis. Ray wrote for the Western Horseman for 25yrs, 60's to 70's and knew a lot of people.I knew him prety well.Was a pall bearer at his funeral.He gave me the books when all the clinic guys started and he was not impressed at all.The books were the U.S.Army field manuel before 1911,And,The Classic Encyclopedia Of the Horse by Dennis Magner written in 1887.And republished in 1980,That is almost 100yrs later not many were ever out there.He went all around the N.East giving clinics on problem horses.Does that sound familiar.EVERYTHING that the clinic gurus did was in these two books just modified to fit todays equipment,from English to Western,military,and driven horses to fit the customers that go to the clinics..Like Soloman says in Ecle.There is nothiong new under the sun.I think there is actually some good information in a very few of them from what I have seen the problem is when a person go's to one or looks at a video he comes away with the attitude for some reason I know it all.And becomes an authority. Untill the day they roll you in a tarp and throw dirt in your face you will never know it all.I learn something everyday.Maby that is cause I'm just dumb. [/QUOTE]
