Well, I'm not sure
if this is the proper way of doing it but it worked for me, twice.
My first horse
decided to start bucking at the canter about a month after we got her.
This was a probelm. So, we put a western saddle on her, took her out to an
open field, I got on and galloped out full. Every time she bucked, I
wacked (oh no another wacko) he on the rump with the crop. After that, she
never did it again. Lived to be 32 & was a great trail
horse.
Second - My friend
bought Old Meadow Jim. About a month later, Jim bucked him off
& my friend broke his hip. Jim was then mine. Again, got on
& just went galloping & bucking across the fields. After that day,
he's never bucked again. Both my daughters ride him also. He's
turning 21 this year but still thinks he's a 5 yo.
Remember though,
saddle fit, saddle placement, tight girths, crooked riding, wrong bit, sore
back can also prompt a buck. Check all those things
first.
Good
luck,
Wendy
