horse training

Horses were not accessories to cowboy life. They were essential. From managing cattle across vast open ranges to shaping the very culture of the American West, the cowboy’s most important tool wasn’t his hat or rope. It was the horse beneath him.

Cowboys rely on the quarter horse, with Joe Hancock as a prominent figure. Known for its speed, cow sense, and unique breeding, Hancock bred horses excel in ranch work and rodeo events, demanding respect and understanding from their riders.
