This is fundamental advice regardless of the discipline in which you ride, I have built my method and career around all of this, if you
Study the greatest horsemen in the world you will see all of the points in action. This was said by one of the best modern horsemen bill steinkrause.

“No. 1. Get your tack and equipment just right, and then forget about it and concentrate on the horse.

No. 2. The horse is bigger than you are, and it should carry you. The quieter you sit, the easier this will be for the horse.

No. 3. The horse's engine is in the rear. Thus, you must ride your horse from behind, and not focus on the forehand simply because you can see it.

No. 4. It takes two to pull. Don't pull. Push.

No. 5. For your horse to be keen but submissive, it must be calm, straight and forward.

No. 6. When the horse isn`t straight, the hollow side is the difficult side.

No. 7. The inside rein controls the bending, the outside rein controls the speed.

No. 8. Never rest your hands on the horse's mouth. You make a contract with it: "You carry your head and I'll carry my hands."

No. 10. Once you've used an aid, put it back.

No. 11. You can exaggerate every virtue into a defect.

No. 12. Always carry a stick, then you will seldom need it.

No. 13. If you`ve given something a fair trial, and it still doesn't work, try something else—even the opposite.

No. 14. Know when to start and when to stop. Know when to resist and when to reward.

No. 15. If you're going to have a fight, you pick the time and place.

No. 16. What you can't accomplish in an hour should usually be put off until tomorrow.

No. 17. You can think your way out of many problems faster than you can ride your way out of them.

No. 18. When the horse jumps, you go with it, not the other way around.

No. 19. Don`t let over-jumping or dull routine erode the horse's desire to jump cleanly. It's hard to jump clear rounds if the horse isn't trying.

No. 20. Never give up until the rail hits the ground.

No. 21. Young horses are like children—give them a lot of love, but don't let them get away with anything.

No. 22. In practice, do things as perfectly as you can; in competition, do what you have to do.

No. 23. Never fight the oats.

No. 24. The harder you work, the luckier you get."

Rez never fails to give us something to work on 🤣 Today was quite challenging but ended on a great note for these two. Great job working him through his uncooperative attitude Natalie!

Warming up at the Triangle Horse Show today

06/14/2021

First show in 2 years! These two have come a very very long way. Plenty still to work on but at least all our problems today were ones we’ve been working on at home and not new ones. Natalie makes it look like he’s a fairly easy ride but Rez is anything but easy! Great job today! I’m so proud of you two!

‼️Update: Because of high demand we will be shipping out orders as quickly as possible but it could take up to two weeks.‼️

Perri's Leather is reaching out to our horse community during this time of crisis to help others on the front lines! We are working with our Amish families to sew as many masks as possible to help our community. Our Amish families are donating their time and any extra materials they have and along with what we purchase to make the cotton masks that are in such short supply.

If you are a health care worker or are on the front lines in any way please go to our website and we will ship you 3 masks at no charge (just pay $4.99 shipping). If you would like a mask for your own personal use you can also purchase 3 masks for $10. Any money we receive from the purchase of the masks will be used to purchase supplies for more masks and anything leftover will be donated to a local charity.

If you have any decent amount of fabric that you would like to donate please PM us! Get your mask here: https://perrisleather.com/masks
