Footwork that Counts - Boz Saddlery

http://www.bozsaddlery.com -- www.bozsaddlery.com It’s the Footwork that Counts! A Monte Foreman film presented by Boz Saddlery/Bozzage Training/ John “BOZ” Bozanich ( a Monte Foreman accredited instructor) OVER 80% OF IT IS IN THE USE OF LEADS. Leads are the left handiness and right handiness of galloping horses. This film demonstrates more about left handed and right handed footwork, that has ever been known before by horseman all over the World. It is hard to believe that less than 1% of all riders in the world can do flying changes of leads on call. Monte Foreman was the 1st. in the world to do a front foot first and hindfoot first flying change on call. Horses become chronically one sided because Riders who do not know leads make them that way . Horses are not one leaded by nature. The horse doesn’t have to be in the correct lead for every turn, but the Rider must always know what lead the horse has and when it is necessary to change it. The only maneuver a cutting horse needs is a rollback. A right lead rollback to a left lead then rollback to a right lead and stay head to head to whatever is in front of you, That Simple! “Monte Foreman developed the first complete basic handle ever assembled.” The horses accurately use of the leads account for over 80% of their agility. Everything is done in balance with ease and in rhythm because of a well trained rider in our riding system. It’s like dancing the Rider has to Guild, because he is the only one who knows where they’re going. This also prevents pattern sore horses. Even in stops we stand up in the stirrups and check the horse down in balance. Monte Foreman was the main influence to the world on how to do slide stops with No slide ground, No slide shoes and No slide boots, just good old regular dirt and deep too. You can see now why it really is the footwork that counts. May you always ride a great horse and your great horse enjoy you more through “Bozzage”.
