Stirrup
Two more rides have come and gone (Island in the Sky
and Tarryall River Romp) – and by all accounts the riders
had a great time at these rides. The weather continued to
cooperate – while both rides were ribboned in the rain,
luckily the clouds went away and the weather was
beautiful on the ride weekends
Besides good weather, our rides have managed to miss
the fires that have threatened various trails/wilderness,
cities, etc. So we have had a lot to be thankful for this
season.
As I write this newsletter, we have two more rides this
season – Chokecherry in Farmington, NM, and Rabbit
Valley near Grand Junction. These rides are both managed by experienced teams in
beautiful desert areas so don’t miss these fun rides.
As the summer is winding down, I find I have a little free time to catch up on
reading. One of the books I am reading talks about the skill of resilience. According
to the book, people who have the skill of resilience also tend to have three
underlying advantages (advantages that can be nurtured and developed in each of
us):
•
A belief they can influence events
•
A tendency to find meaningful purpose in the midst of difficulty
•
A conviction that they can learn from both positive and negative experiences
NATRC riders, in my opinion, demonstrate a lot of resilience. The most successful
ones believe that conditioning between rides and practicing the skills that will be
tested in obstacles – will result in improvement in their teamwork with their horse.
And while they enjoy placing well, they find greater meaning in improving their
horsemanship skills and their relationship with their horse. Finally, they are avid
learners – recognizing that while it is undoubtedly more fun to learn from positive
experiences, sometimes the best learning comes from negative experiences (other
peoples’ and their own experiences).
My wish for all of us – is that each ride brings us an opportunity to learn new and
interesting things - - - - to have some of those aha!! moments.
See you on the trails!!

Sep/Oct 2012 Issue The Stirrup Page 4 Gaited Horse Myths ?!?!, by Susan Peters
As the owner of four gaited horses over the past 20 years, I have sometimes questioned some of the widely
held views of gaited horses, and this August I attended a gaited horse clinic that addressed some of these
beliefs. I found the views unique and thought provoking and have summarized just a couple of them for your
consideration.
First, let me start with an overview of the trainer. Larry Whitesell was a successful paso fino trainer and had
great success in the show ring including Trainer of the Year. Over the years he began studying methods
(called the Spanish School) that he then adapted to gaited horses. Essentially the methods used dressage
principles, centered riding, and a philosophy that horse training needs to focus on the benefits to the horse.
Larry found that applying these principles yielded huge benefits in training and rehabilitating gaited horses.
He now focuses on gaited horses (all breeds) engaged in pleasure trail riding. In the course of a year he and
his partner will retrain over 100 gaited horses that have a range of issues from no “whoa”, to no “go”, to no
gait.
Unlike any other gaited horse clinician I have seen – Larry does NOT focus on getting gait. His belief is that if
you help the horse relax and over time develop the horse’s muscles that are needed to collect and engage
the hindquarters, then the gait that is embedded in the genes will come out naturally. He teaches you how to
teach your horse to relax and to respond to light and subtle cues. As a caution, if you have an interest in
showing, this training will probably not be helpful as the show ring tends to reward exaggerated gaits (which
is in direct contradiction to a gait derived from a relaxed horse).
Myth #1 Never let your gaited horse trot.
The rationale behind this belief is that if you let your gaited horse trot, it will negatively impact your horse’s
ability or willingness to gait.
Larry says that this makes as much sense as telling a parent not to let their child skip as it will impact their
ability to walk. We would never buy into that advice because we believe children can choose to do different
“gaits” as long as they have 1) learned how to do the “gait” and 2) have developed the muscles to do the
“gait”. Larry says the same principles hold for horses.
Larry says that he can ask a horse to trot for an hour and then ask the horse to gait for an hour – the
difference is in the degree of collection and rear end engagement he asks from the horse.
And in fact, it has been Larry’s experience that a gaited horse that has been allowed/encouraged to trot for
its early years – is really easy to teach to gait because the trot is a “square” gait and tends to develop a very
balanced horse – a trait that is necessary for gaiting.
Myth #2 To get a gait out of a gaited horse, you need to use a long shank bit.
In Larry’s opinion, while you do get a gait when you use a long shank bit, it is a gait that is not healthy for
the horse. A big bit creates braces in your horse that starts in the jaw and extends through the entire body of
the horse – the gait you get is essentially like the movement of a tin soldier – the hocks are stiff and the legs
just swing under the horse. This kind of gait might be comfortable for the rider but wreaks havoc on the
horse’s back (hollows out the back) and hocks (puts great stress on the hocks). In addition, this kind of gait
creates emotional issues in your horse that often manifest as spookiness, herd boundness, and other
undesirable behaviors.
Larry advocates the use of a snaffle bit because 1) a snaffle provides very simple, clear communication and
2) it promotes relaxation in the horse. He does caution that a horse that has been trained in a shank bit will
not immediately understand a snaffle bit – and you have to retrain the horse (i.e. don’t put a snaffle bit on
and go out on the trail – you will need to do retraining in an arena until you know the horse understands and
responds to the snaffle bit).
Sep/Oct 2012 Issue The Stirrup Page 5 All of this logic resonated with me – but what really convinced me was watching Larry with the variety of
horses that came to the clinic. We had six horses and most of the riders seemed to be pretty good riders.
Larry would watch you work with/ride your horse – and then he would get on the horse – and you could see
the horse visibly relax under his techniques. Then he taught you his techniques (pretty simple) and you could
see improvement in both your horse and your riding.
A second testimony for these training techniques comes from a novice rider who bought a horse that had
done a lot of open competitions over the years. From watching this horse in Open competitions in the past, I
would have said that this was a very high energy, high anxiety horse – with a whole lot of go but not much
whoa. This horse’s previous rider (who was a pretty strong guy) would be in pain after a day’s riding because
the horse would pull so hard on him. Based on the advice of well-respected trainers, a number of bits had
been tried – each one with more “whoa” than the previous one. Generally, the horse would listen to the bit
for a short time, but eventually the horse would again run through the new bit. When this new rider bought
the horse, she started going to Larry Whitesell clinics and began using the principles on this horse. She has
competed in three rides this year where she rides the horse in a snaffle bit in the novice division. I made it a
point to watch this horse when I got the chance – and the horse was calm and relaxed and gaiting
beautifully. She and her horse have placed well – a couple of firsts and a couple of seconds. This is such a
changed horse that it made a believer of me.
I know this is pretty radical thinking for most gaited horse owners, but if it sounds intriguing and you would
like to learn more, you can ….

Check Your Mailbox ‐ ‐ Vote 2012 The annual ballot for Regional Board members and a National Board member were mailed (snail mail) today and need to be back to Sharon Roper by October 15th. There is one small correction – on the line that says District 3 Region 3 …… further on the line it says ONLY if you live in District 2 …… Should be ONLY if you live in District 3….. As a refresher (or for those who aren’t familiar with the governing structure of Region 3), you are represented by both Regional and National Board members. Regional board members have two year terms and can hold office for two consecutive terms. There are 9 board members – 2 for each of 3 districts (6 members) and three “At Large” which means they represent the entire state. Other Regional board members include alternates, the most recent past president, and national board members. In any year one district board member will be continuing their two year term, and the second board position for that district will be up for election. One or two at large board positions will be up for election in any year. Every member of NATRC (we have 53 family memberships and 95 single memberships) belongs to a “district” based on where they live.  District 1 – Colorado – north of I‐70 – represented by Sherri Halligan who is in the first year of her term; Janna Combs is running for a second term.  District 2 – Colorado south of I70 and east of the Continental Divide – Pam Galchutt will be continuing; Syndi Scott is running for her first term as an elected board member.  District 3 – Colorado west of the Continental Divide and all of New Mexico – Chuck Smith is continuing his term; Bobbi Hansford is running for her first term.  At large – continuing board members include Sharon Roper and Juleen Feazell; Diana Marquardt is running for the open board position. When you receive your ballot – vote for the one district board member based on your address AND everyone in Region 3 votes for the At Large position. Every region also has two National Board representatives plus an alternate. The National Board (2 members from every region for a total of 12) meet three times a year and decides issues of a national scope. These positions are three year terms. Susan Peters will continue in her second year as a board member, and Pam Galchutt will be in her second year as an alternate. This year one board position is open – Betty Wolgram and Jerry Sims are running for this position. Everyone in Region 3 votes for this position. So please keep an eye out for those ballots and be sure to use these ballot(s) as they are coded for validity. If you have any questions, you can call or email Sharon Roper (your Regional Vice President who is in charge of nominations – 970‐242‐9278 sjroper93452@aol.com ). http://www.equinemonitors.com/

2013 Rides In the Planning Stage Now
The 2012 ride season is not over yet – and planning is already starting for the 2013 ride season. The following
rides are in the works for next year - Pinon Mesa (a New Mexico ride that is coming back!!)
Navajo Lake – horsemanship judge will be Kim Cowart
General Albert P. Clark Memorial Ride at the Air Force Academy – managed by the team of Linell MillerInman (ride manager), Pam Galchutt (secretary), Kris and Emil Squazzo (trail managers)
Colorado Trail (possibly – more details to come)
Tarryall River Romp – managed by the team of Susan Peters (ride manager), Pam Galchutt (ride
secretary), and John Horne (trail manager); horsemanship judge – Kim Cowart, vet judge – TBD
Two rides – Chokecherry and Rabbit Valley – are still to come, and the decision to continue those rides next
year will likely be made at the conclusion of the rides. A key factor for any manager on deciding to do a ride
next year is the rider attendance and support of the previous year (so enter these rides and bring friends – or
donate to the rides to show your support if you can’t attend).
Two of this year’s rides will currently not happen in 2013:
Island in the Sky – this ride is scheduled every other year
Willow Springs – this year’s ride managers will not be doing the ride next year (we hope they will be
back the following year). If you would be interested in putting on this ride in 2013, contact Susan
Peters (sapeters@pcisys.net)
We have a number of ride locations that could be the site of a ride – we just need management teams to put
the rides on. As above contact Susan Peters if you would like to put on a ride.
