Adult Onset Horsemanship

An informal and candid podcast discussing real world horsemanship with respected and experienced experts. Daniel is a guy who is good with horses. He has a background in cutting where he was predominantly involved in developing aged event horses and started over 1000 head of colts, many of whom went on to win lots of cash. A very bad horse wreck at a horse show, involving his niece, prompted him to begin working with people and showing them a no BS version of how to not get killed by their horses. He's since worked with thousands more horses and people from varying disciplines and breeds including many last chance problem horses. In addition to his general horsemanship knowledge he is an internationally known expert on bits and how and why they function. He has a well rounded knowledge base of horsemanship and is working hard at his communication skills with his own species. His wife is a firm believer that he really likes the sound of his own voice and that is the real reason he's started this podcast. http://dauphinhorsemanship.com/

Let us know how we're doing. Please understand that we can't reply or see your info.

Mark Lyon is one of those people I refer to as a horseman's horseman. He's highly skilled and I genuinely enjoy his take on things and the metaphors he uses to get his point across. Mark is on the road more often than not, but has gotten more regular on sharing videos on youtube. I'd highly recommend you subscribe to his channel.

He's an interesting blend of old school and new. Mark has a background as a competitive ballroom dancer, as well as a bronc stomper. He regularly trick trains horses and other animals to perfom in entertainment shows. He builds his own props, has fully customized his trailer, and is just plain handy. He's the kind of guy you could ask to do just about anything and then just get out of his way.
