Re: [RC] Buck Brannaman - Opinions? - Becky Rohwer

 Oh boy, don't get me started.  Actually I took my 3 yr old gelding to a
Brannamon clinic to start him.  We were successful as the gelding was
rideable when we were done.  I think it was a 4 day thing.  If I must be
honest about my experience though I will tell you it was no bed of roses.
It seemed like I was singled out to be the best example of what not to do.
I was pretty much picked on for all 4 days.  Well, he did finally back off a
little on the last day as I think he was starting to see that I had had just
about enough.  I tried to keep the attitude that I was there to learn.  I
was not trying to show him how much I knew as I knew I didn't know much
about starting a horse.
 The man knows his stuff, but he can be hard on his students.
Understandably as he doesn't want to see anyone get hurt, but I think he
could lighten up a little.  JMHO.
 Just curious, is this a Brannamon style clinic put on my someone who
follows his techniques, or will you be working with the Man himself?
