Good points Cheryl & Livex.

I've also seen horses that people said bucked not do anything. Sometimes it's not the horse, sometimes it's the rider. I've seen horses that did fine with someone who could ride have a complete meltdown with someone that didn't know where their feet & legs were. I've also seen good lesson horses that didn't have a buck in them at all go sour and start bucking because they didn't get ridden enough and got spoiled on top of that.

Even with your own horses, every time you put a foot in the stirrup there's no guarantees. They're animals and we're supposed to be the smarter species and remember that but somehow we forget it pretty easily. 


 

Oh yeah I forgot that as another story! My mare that I bought recently supposedly bucked, I've had her for 3 years now and she's never tried. I started out leasing her from a friend and the mare hadn't been ridden in awhile when I got her and she told me I "better wear a seatbelt" the first time I rode her, and she told me that typically she always had a little hump in her back when you first walked off. I've still never had her buck. She's no saint and she acts up/spooks, but she's never put her head down and tried to buck or even kicked out.
