The days end earlier and temperatures are colder as winter sets in, which makes it harder to find time and motivation to ride. Days like this make it appealing to curl up on the couch in front of a movie and hide from the world.
When the snow and cold keep you inside, check out "Buck."
An inspirational movie for horse people and non-horse people alike, this biographical documentary profiles trainer and clinician Dan M. "Buck" Brannaman. Buck was the inspiration for the book and movie "The Horse Whisperer" and even did some horse work on the film and helped Robert Redford with the character.
Buck has spent most of his life traveling the country, "helping horses with people problems." His clinics on colt starting and horse training have helped thousands. He has many worthwhile books and DVDs on training and other horse issues.
This incredibly well-made documentary features gorgeous scenery from Buck’s home in Montana and touching scenes from Buck’s past and from his clinics. The film will inspire you to be a better horse person -- and a better person in general. It will provide you will all the motivation you need to get out to the barn and spend time with your horse.
"Buck" is streaming on Netflix and available on DVD at most retailers. It is a great way to spend an evening and reinspire a love of horses and riding.
After watching the movie, you can explore his website, order books and DVDs, and find out when he is coming to your town.
