Some horses dislike being ridden and others do not like being worn or things around it. And there are some that simply want to release excess energy. Whatever the reason, bucking isn't safe for the rider and those around him. Luckily, there are ways to help relax your horse and prevent it from ever bucking again.

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Dealing with a Horse's Throw

1. 

   When the horse is about to bounce, it immediately loses its hind leg support. Do this by tugging the reins to the left or right, causing the pinned horse's nose to touch your legs. A horse cannot bounce when it is in this position; it can only move in a very narrow circle. This will help strengthen your leading role and relax the horse's muscles, making it easier to move.
   • Do not let go of the horse until it has completely stopped, then hold for three seconds. Do the same on the other side, to reinforce the horse your position toward it. Every time the horse intends, or begins to bounce, repeat it. If it's a caged horse, do this every time you ride - even when you're standing beside it or when you're on it.

2. 

   
   
   Create a "clamp ring". Using one hand, grab the reins and slide the other hand down the reins, forming a tight "grip" on the horse's neck. It will affect the horse's cervical vertebrae and prevent them from bucking. Make sure to use your feet and the horse will step back. When it starts to calm down, be sure to release your legs and reins.
   • A horse cannot bounce if it cannot bow. Hold the reins tight so you can pull back when you feel the horse trying to lower its head, which will prevent it from bucking.

3. 

   
   
   If your horse bucks, sit back in the saddle. Bend heels and lower shoulders, then tug up the reins to prevent the horse from lowering its head. Remember - horses cannot bounce with their head up.
   • You also need to remember to keep your horse running. A lot of riders will try to stop the horse from bucking by stopping it. But in fact should keep running. Don't let the horse stop. After such bucking pauses, he will understand that bucking can save him from having to work.

4. 

   
   
   If you don't feel right, hop off your horse, but don't run away. The first thing you need to do is lean back; This will reduce the chance of falling forward hurting your head. However, if you are not a good rider, it may be easier to simply jump off a horse. This sounds like a bad idea, but think: Once you know you can't ride on horseback, do you prefer to jump off your own or let the horse knock you off?
   • The safest way to get off a horse is on its side. Quickly remove the foot from the pedal and slide it to the side that seems safest. It would be better if you choose the side where there are no other horses nearby.
   • If someone is nearby, they may be ready to help. If you're riding alone, call someone for help. It is more likely that there will be at least one person around the barn who can help you manage the situation.
   • Once you're off your horse, don't try to run. This may cause the horse to think there is a danger and will run after you or even run leaping friend. Walk slowly away from the horse while keeping an eye on it. Once the horse has calmed down and you are unaffected, feel free to return and ride on its back. Its not always its fault and it would be cruel to judge a horse over something it has done once. Let it prove to you that it is indeed a good and reliable horse!

5. 

   If you have been familiar with the horse for a while, let it smell you. The first step to preventing a horse from bucking is to eliminate the perceived threats it perceives. The second step is to signal your horse to your horse's scent (identity) by blowing it near its nostrils. Horses have a sensitive olfactory gland that can distinguish many odors and they use this feature to determine the difference between humans / animals / another horse / etc. When the horse has smelled a scent, and if if you get used to it it will usually calm down.
   • If the horse has not calmed down yet, you will need to wait a while. Once it has calmed down a bit, the next step is to place your hand on your horse friend's nose and talk to it, drawing its attention towards you. Continue to pull it closer and caress the neck. Then you better take it around so that it regains confidence in its surroundings and sees nothing to worry about.

Method 2 of 3: Prevent Horses from bucking

1. 

   Keep the horse's head up, neck soft and slightly arched. You can do this by slightly relaxing the reins and creating a bond between the horse's mouth and your hand. Don't let the horse bite the iron in his mouth to pull your hand and don't let the reins get too tight or put your hand on his neck.
   • Most horses only do a back-swing - a weaker "version" of the bounce. When bucking, the horse's head will lie between its front legs and the hind legs will kick back behind its tail.
   • The bucking action can help keep your horse balanced. Some race horses do this while trotting in open spaces or at the racetrack.

2. 

   
   
   Stay focused - don't lean forward on horseback. Communicate your intentions - your body weight is a very effective horse communication tool. Sit comfortably on horseback. Visualize the direction you want to go and tilt your head slightly in that direction - this will change the center of gravity and point out the direction of the horse's turn without excessive hand movements.
   • You need to be tough on your horse, but not too hard. If he sees you as a rider or hurts him then that might be why he has knocked you down.

3. 

   
   
   Keep moving forward. If you hesitate, the horse will know right away and can be seen as an opportunity to knock you off. make him run again - the horse cannot bounce without securing the front leg to the ground.
   • Don't let the horse stop. A horse can bounce and stop running; the only reason for it to bounce is because he knows the rider will let him stop because he has acted wrongly. Just keep moving in that case, and the horse will know it will get no benefit from it.

4. 

   
   
   When jumping up, avoid "stalling" just before jumping. If your horse is prone to swinging, it will use this opportunity to plunge its front leg into the ground and send you flying forward. Make sure to align the distance so that you can land easily. Once you do, keep the momentum going!
   • Support your horse by relaxing your legs and give him a comfortable distance to stretch his neck by bringing the handle of the reins and directing your center of gravity forward.
   • When a horse bucks, that means it lifts both hind legs. This can be very dangerous if you are riding on its back and can also be dangerous for the riders around. If another horse bucks, order your horse to move away.

5. 

   Stay calm so you can calm your horse too. You should not share your fears or horrors with your horse as it can recognize it from your voice and scent. If you are on a horse at the time, keep low and keep your head beside its neck, away from the head that is shaking vigorously. Speak to him as softly as possible while constantly mentioning the horse's name.
   • Don't just talk to him like a child, treat him like a scared kid. After a few seconds, you should be able to speak loudly and sound harder (but not angry) commands for it to do the trained thing. It's a good way to calm your horse, so it's a good idea to use it to command it while on the move. However, do not do so while the horse is racing as it will probably go as fast as possible and cause you to lose control.
   • Helping the horse get rid of its anger and fear is all you can do. If you are on the ground, keep calm and turn your head slightly away, looking down to avoid eye contact. Speak softly and calmly. Remember it is panicking, try smiling, yawning, coughing or laughing. You will develop a skill that helps your horse relax when it becomes difficult to control.

6. 

   You need to understand your horse. Usually the horse will kick off inexperienced riders or people it is not familiar with. In those cases, you need to make time for it. You must learn about the horse and develop a relationship with it. This way when you ride it, it will know that it can trust you.
   • One suggestion to help you and your horse respect each other is to get out of the saddle and take it with you. Talk and calm it down first.Take him with you around the training ground or give him a snack and teach him some tricks! Creating an intimate bond with a horse is key to mutual respect, but a real bond does not just come from riding on its back.

Method 3 of 3: Determining Why a Horse Bucks

1. 

   Check all seats and other equipment. See if there are signs of discomfort on the horse, such as sunken back, low ears, or a restless expression. It may be in pain somewhere and it bounces, hoping to get rid of the pain. In short, there must be a reason for the horse to do so.
   • Make sure the equipment you use really fits the horse. For example, a saddle that is too tight will not only cause back pain and fear, but also cause physiological fear of being ridden, making it harder to control and control.
   • Have an expert check to see if the saddle fully fits its back and spine. Once you've checked those two, check again on the reins and the iron that gushes its mouth. If all the potential issues have been checked, then the next thing to consider is you.

2. 

   Find out how your horse is feeling. You need to find out what the problem is. Will the horse be able to run fully? Are you sure it doesn't hurt? Look at its ears, if the horse's ears lean forward, it could be having a great time and trying to release some of its excess energy. If his ears are pulled back and are pressed against his head, he is feeling something uncomfortable or painful.
   • Sometimes a horse bucking or jumping is to tell you something. It is important that you listen to it because there are times when it tries to tell you something is wrong. Another reason may be that it has too much repressed energy - even the best horses can bounce if they have too much energy to release. In this case, let it run around the field in a circular or free run until it stops agitating.
   • Running a horse for a while before riding can also help. It will get rid of the annoyance and excess energy before you ride and the two of you can have a peaceful ride. You should also thread the reins and install the pedal and then guide the horse around to help him get used to the reins and get used to it.

3. 

   See if there is any connection between external factors and when your horse bucks. If it ever panicked near a certain fence, it bounced back each time it passed. There are a few ways to help guide him and help him calm down. If it becomes difficult to control every time you do an exercise, limit the time to do it or give it positive encouragement when it does well. Then let it do the exercises or activities it likes.
   • Don't force him to do nasty activity exercises for too long - slowly increase the amount of time you want to spend on that activity instead.

4. 

   Take it easy, studying the horse's behavior step by step. If you can't ride it on its back without bouncing it, start over by walking it and find a ride that's right for you. Study the horse and find out when it bounces, and give it punishment and reward, if needed.
   • For example, if your horse bucks when you ask it to trot, act cautiously but make sure it was not correct then continue to command it. Do it over and over until it doesn't bounce every time you order it to trot, then give it praise. A reward is an important part of coaching and you must make it clear that you are satisfied or not.

5. 

   Horse re-training. Don't ignore the possibility that your horse has been purposefully bucking. Perhaps it has been trained for use in a cage riding competition. Or perhaps someone who has a grudge against his former owner deliberately taught him to bounce often to play badly against his old owner. You may find that retraining is necessary, or that for safety you should sell that horse to buy another.
   • Horses will quickly discover that bucking is a very effective way to stop inexperienced riders from riding them. If this problem occurs multiple times due to lack of training, your horse may not respect you. In that case, it's best to send it in for retraining while improving your horseback riding skills or consider buying another horse as it may be too difficult for your horse to ride for your level. friend.
   • If you decide to continue using your current horse, be aware that it will probably "try" you on the next ride (even if it has been retrained) so if you feel like you won't Get another jolt, let's get another horse.

Advice

• Horses can sense the rider's anxiety. Stay calm and don't become tense.
• Don't pull the reins straight toward your chest, this will make it easier for your horse to bounce back. Pull the reins to one side.
• Fixing the reins will help the horse stop bucking. Grab the reins near the mouthpiece and pull it toward your thighs. Make sure you don't pull on the other reins. Keep your hands on your lap until the horse is completely still and you regain control.
• A horse or cage should not be allowed by a shy or novice rider. Immaturity will lead to injury!
• Make sure the saddle is fastened if you know the horse is swinging. Because when a horse bucks you may fall. When riding a horse there is usually a handle on the saddle, don't be afraid to cling to it. Make sure to keep your reins steady.
• Consult with your veterinarian or horse trainer if none of the options work.
• Don't jump down. Try to stay on horseback. Lie back and step hard on the pedal. Jumping down will teach that horse how to stop humans from riding it.
• If you are a beginner to horseback riding, it is best to use saddles with support handles on the front and back.
• Bring a whip. If the horse bucks, whip it on the shoulder. Later when it sees the whip, it will no longer bounce because it is known to experience pain when it bounces.
• Spending more time getting to know your horse creates a bond between you and your horse will feel more comfortable walking together.
• A horse that never bucks doesn't mean that when you ride it won't bounce and knock you off!
• Never give up! Bucking is a bad habit and can be difficult to fix, but don't let it distract you. If you fall, get up immediately.

Warning

• If you fall, stay away from the horse's feet. Horses will try to avoid anything on the ground, but there is no guarantee. Maybe an accident will happen.
• Don't panic and pull the reins to stop the horse from bucking. This will confuse the horse and bounce even more. The key is to be calm and gentle.
• When you start to fall, try to roll. This will help reduce the impact of a fall and keep you away from the horse.
• If you fall, land by leaning over. Grounding with your back, head or chest will make you more hurt.
