Backcountry basics

By Mike Kinsey

With Jennifer Denison

AQHA Professional Horseman Mike Kinsey of Belton, S.C., has teamed up with Western Horseman Senior Editor Jennifer Denison to create Backcountry Basics. This problem-solving handbook, based on the award-winning series that ran in the magazine, is for recreational trail riders, but any rider in any discipline can benefit from Kinsey's techniques and have a safer, more reliable, and more responsive mount. Kinsey's "tell it like it is" philosophy and step-by-step lesson plans will gradually develop your horse's trust, confidence and willingness.
