Horse Training Techniques From The 1800s-Andy Curry Was he the worlds greatest horse trainer of all time Would his picture be in the horse trainers Hall Of Fame Perhaps. His name was Jesse Beery. Before he was twenty he became a world class horse trainer. He was so well known, there were more people who heard of him than didnt. Jesse Beery learned how to train horses almost entirely on his own because there were few people who knew how to train a horse. Beerys parents discouraged horse training as a career but later okayd his passion. From then on there was no stopping Beery from achieving greatness. Beerys first inclination to train horses happened when he drove a horse and buggy to a friends house. As Beery exited the buggy the horse spooked and ran home. During that long walk home Beery was determined to make his horse stay put. As he worked with his horse he discovered ways to get a horse to do what he wanted. Although nearly killed in training incidents and laughed at from friends and neighbors, Beery soon became THE authority on horse training. Beerys methods solved numerous problems with horses that seemed unsolvable. If a horse was hard to shoe, ran away, pulled while tied, spooky, and more...Beery knew how to fix it. As if his accomplishments werent enough to keep him busy, Beery wrote a Horse Training manual describing how to do what he did. Unfortunately, few copies exist today and those that do may be hard to read due to the poor condition of these very old books. Beerys book may be available in used book stores if one is motivated to search. Be prepared for a time consuming search - but if a Beery book is found in good condition, be ready to pay a handsome price. There may be an alternative. Beerys book was recently revived by horse trainer Andy Curry. Curry discovered Beerys book in a used book store by accident. Curry says, "This is one of the most amazing books Ive EVER read about horse training. Beery explains his methods so clearly its like hes there with you...holding your hand...showing what to do. Every responsible horse owner should have a copy of this book - period!"

How Can Sports Psychology Help Athletes The question you need to ask yourself is this: Am I performing up to my capability I’m sure you know some fellow athletes who have “great talent” or physical skills, but haven’t played up to their potential. One of the myths athletes buy into is that you first must develop “perfect” technique or knowledge about ones sport before you can work on the so-called mental game. But, from my perspective, you cannot separate the mental from the physical when it comes to motor skills. Decisions, thoughts, images, and feelings set up each action you take. Sports psychology helps athletes develop confidence and focusing skills as they master the technical aspects of the game.

Three Main Trout Senses An angler should therefore become familiar with the three main senses a trout uses. These are: Do Fish See in Color Fish do indeed perceive color. Every fly fisher knows that or ought to know that. Like humans, the retina of a fish have rods and cones. Cones are used in the day and rods at night. Color vision evolved to help fish identify potential food. In the environment of the fish, the background will either be the bottom, the water itself, or if looking up for food it could be the sky. The bottom is normally tannish olive to green. When looking across the water, the background appears pale silver blue. But if the water is off color due to algae or high water one must take that into consideration as well. Skylight becomes more important at dusk and dawn when it contains more reds.
